In a consumer-controlled Web-and-cable matrix, when a gym teacher from Queens punches the cast member known as Snooki on the MTV reality series "Jersey Shore," that information quickly finds us.
The ability to walk freely within the boundaries of an artificial world, untethered from chairs and flatscreen televisions (if not from a rather intrusive cable protruding Matrix-style from the back of your head) is an experience that feels oddly naturalistic in spite of the often alien surroundings.
A flexible cable connects the matrix to a computer-controlled external triggering device delivering the electrical signals that individually activate the electrodes.
Neo takes the red pill and wakes up as he really is: a comatose body in a cocoon, his brain penetrated by a cable that inserts the Matrix, an interactive virtual-reality program, directly into his consciousness.
Usually, for cable net reflectors, the matrix form equilibrium Eq. (4) is statically indeterminate, which has many different cable tension distributions to satisfy this equation.
It consists of an IGBT based power converter, NbTi mixed matrix Rutherford cable superconducting magnet and a cryostat with HTS current leads.
The movie portrays a Baudrillardian future in which tyrannical, hyper-intelligent machines have enslaved the human race and connected all the humans by cables to a computer matrix where they live in a virtual reality that only a few suspect to be false.
This strategy will allow to develop more accurate stiffness matrices for cable and membrane elements, as nonlinearity will be taken into consideration when deriving not just the equilibrium equations, but also the compatibility and constitutive equations.
In a recent work, a proximity- and skin-effect aware formulation known as the surface-volume-surface electric field integral equation discretized with 2-D method-of-moments (MoM) was optimized to efficiently extract the frequency dependent series impedance matrix of cables with arbitrary shapes.
The generalized force vector, and its related tangent stiffness and damping matrix, of the sliding cable and that of the classical cable element are analytically derived.
In this paper an efficient numerical procedure that searches for frequency parameters s that make the system matrix J s) of transmission line cable singular is considered.
