Preparation, Categorization and Anticancer Study of Novel Bicyclic Compounds from Various Types for (Five and Six)- Membered Ring
Abstract: The characteristics of ring systems change in the presence of functional groups, but in some cases, elements that are considered functional groups can be classified within the same ring. Compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen are called homogeneous rings, while those that contain other elements are called heterogeneous rings. The atom substituted in place of the carbon atom is referred to as a heteroatom. Generally, the heterocyclic atom is …

Parameter Identification of Vibrating MIMO Mass-Spring-Damper Mechanical Systems with Coulomb Friction
Abstract: This study presents a time-domain method for identifying parameters in multi-degree-of-freedom (DOF) linear mass-spring-damper systems that include Coulomb friction, where the friction coefficient varies within a limited range, using measurements of position and control force. For mass identification in single-degree-of-freedom (DOF) vibrating mechanical systems with stiffness and no damping but Coulomb friction, the friction term is eliminated by first derivative processing. In addition, the identification of the coefficient of friction …
