In this paper the serpentine, rectilinear, and concertina types of actual snake locomotion are realized, through simulation studies, by using the unified neural oscillator model proposed for the snake-like robots.
Based on 2D finite element method, this paper investigates the combined effects of different rectilinear slope geometries, soil types and vegetation mechanical parameters on the slope's factor of safety.
Frank's motto for his spare rectilinear style was "The last touch of elegance is elimination".
He just did his own thing next door, juxtaposing his crystalline forms with Ponti's sternly rectilinear style.
These visualization results suggest that there is a strong influence of type of bubble motion––rectilinear or zigzag on the fluid flow and the interfacial dynamics.
The snake's locomotion modes can be categorized into following four types: (1) serpentine locomotion; (2) rectilinear locomotion; (3) rolling locomotion; and (4) sidewinding locomotion.
With its glass curtain walls and spare rectilinear forms, it crystallised what would become the dominant type of modernist architecture.
Muslim builders introduced a new type of dwelling reflecting their Arab and North African traditions: rectilinear in plan, flat-roofed, and often two stories or more in height, these dwellings were built of sun-dried mud brick or of mud and stone.
The North Indian shikhara is basically of two types: (1) the latina, curvilinear in outline, the type most usually found above the sanctuary; and (2) the phamsana, rectilinear in outline and capped by a bell-shaped member, the form more usually found above the mandapa.
Rectilinear and rotary shear was applied by moving glass plates, which resulted in different types of aggregation (Michele et al. 1977).
