A higher stability may be achieved with additional wires or half pins, as demonstrated in particular for axial frame stiffness [8, 10].
The present approach is implemented in four numerical examples of 2D bending-shear-axial frames with various numbers of stories and spans and also a floating raft isolation system.
In this experiment, the ocular anterior segment at both the horizontal and the vertical meridian, which consisted of 2,048 × 4,096 pixels (lateral × axial) per frames with the scan speed of 17,500 A-lines per second, were imaged.
Open image in new window Fig. 10 Components in experimental set-up: (1) axial load frame, (2) hydraulic jack, (3) hinge, (4) actuator, (5) load cell, (6) reference frame, (7) pendulum support, (8) load cell, (9) fixed support, (10) out-of-plane support frame, (11) steel reaction frame.
Sixty-two images, corresponding to thirty-one combined images of the anterior segment at the horizontal meridian, with 1,024 × 4,096 pixels (lateral × axial) per frame, were sequentially acquired using the AS-OCT in 3.72 seconds, with a single frame rate of 8.33 Hz.
If head position modulation is also present, a body-centered (axial) reference frame is possible.
At the tip of the tri-axial moving frame, a long-range and a short-range infrared distance sensor are mounted to measure the altitude.
An algorithm is developed and tested on a scaled simulated lunar scenario, over which a tri-axial moving frame has been built to reproduce the landing trajectories.
A series of beam models are developed by changing structural characteristics such as lateral load design type (ordinary vs. special frames), axial stiffness at the beam boundaries, steel yield stress, amount of integrity reinforcement at bar cut-off locations and the beam span to study their effects on the performance of the beam.
Axial rotations at frames corresponding to maximum right and left diagnostic ROMs were identified for each subject and averaged for each examiner.
