Parametric Optimization and Stiffness Determination of XY Positioning Stage for High Precision Applications
Abstract: In micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) flexural mechanisms are widely used because of their advantages such as frictionless and wear less motion and high precision. Flexures depend on material elasticity for their functionality. In flexure mechanism, motion is generated due to elastic deformation of the beam from which it is made. One of the typical advantages of flexural mechanism is to gain precise deformation and flexibility to obtain motion in desired direction. …

Experimental Determination of Tire Stiffness using Nitrogen
Abstract: Vehicle stability generally depends on the tire forces and torque at wheel. Forces and reactions generated at tire play major role in the control of vehicle. On application of torque to the wheel, due to contact friction between road, tire pushes on the ground and moves forward and backward. Tire also supports the load of vehicle and deforms under load for the flexibility and damping. The stiffness of fluid in …

Psychological Determinants Affecting Exercise Adherence among Young Adult Females in Pune City
Abstract: We reside in a society where physical inactivity remains a serious issue, particularly for women. Among individuals who do initiate exercise programs, approximately half of them drop out during the first 6 months, has been stated in several researches. Mostly individuals discontinue their regular exercise whenever they feel pressured to exercise; they start lacking the enjoyment and intrinsic motivation to continue. In this study, 208 female participants completed the survey. …
