Deciphering the Role of a Coleopteran Steering Muscle via Free Flight Stimulation by Sato, Hirotaka, Vo Doan, Tat Thang, Kolev, Svetoslav, Huynh, Ngoc Anh, Zhang, Chao, Massey, Travis L., van Kleef, Joshua, Ikeda, Kazuo, Abbeel, Pieter, Maharbiz, Michel M.

“…We set out to identify muscles whose stimulation produced a graded turning in free flight, a feat that would enable fine steering control not previously demonstrated. We anticipated that gradation might arise either as a function of the phase of muscle firing relative to the wing stroke (as in the classic fly b1 muscle [ 14, 15 ] or the dorsal longitudinal and ventral muscles of moth [ 16 ]), or due to regulated tonic control, in which phase-independent summation of twitch responses produces varying amounts of force delivered to the wing linkages [ 15, 17, 18 ].…”

Counter-checking uncertainty calculations in Bayesian operational modal analysis with EM techniques by Ma, Xinda, Au, Siu-Kui

“…While the existing semi-analytical approach is still preferred for Hessian calculations in applications for its high definitive accuracy and speed, the proposed Monte Carlo solution offers a convenient means for counter-checking during code development. Theoretical implications of the identity will be discussed and numerical examples will be given to illustrate implementation aspects.…”

Shear behaviour of high-strength concrete beams by He, Lihua.

“…The rapidly increasing use of high strength concrete as an alternative to the more classical materials (normal strength concrete) requires knowledge by the design engineer of HSC behaviour in shear. The experimental investigation conducted in this project is important to evaluate the current design methods used for shear design of HSC beams, and the theoretical model proposed in this research for reinforced concrete element is capable of predicting not only the ultimate shear strength but also the load-deformation response of concrete elements subjected to in-plane shear and normal stresses.…”
