Estimation of Burger Model Parameters by Inverse Analysis of Oedometer Data
Abstract: Contrary to the forward analysis, inverse analysis can be effectively utilized to determine the parameters of a constitutive model commonly used to represent the stress-strain-time behavior or the load-deformation-time behavior of the soil. This paper reports the development of a generalized inverse analysis formulation for the parameter estimation of four-parameter Burger model. The analysis is carried out by formulating the problem as that of mathematical programming in terms of identification …

Development and Investigation of Minimum Power Non-contact Swirl Vane Gripper
Abstract: The Swirl vane gripper is a new non-contact gripper, which uses negative pressure created by the air swirling flow to create an upward lifting force. This upward force can be used to lift an object, which is placed underneath the gripper. In comparison with other non-contact grippers, this gripper is electrically actuated (rather than pneumatically) and hence require less power to generate same lifting force as produced by other grippers. …
