Microrobots climbing on fabrics are well-suited for reconnaissance and rescue tasks in indoor environments. However, achieving stable adhesion while maintaining a simplified locomotion mechanism ...

Abstract The response of single and double layered steel plates to localised air-blast loading was examined. Two configurations, both comprising fully clamped circular plates with a 200 mm exposed ...

In this study, we consider the problem of actuator placement in the vibration control of flexible plates. Unlike earlier approaches based on enhanced controllability and/or improved performance ...

Abstract This paper presents a single variable new first-order shear deformation plate theory with only one fourth-order partial governing differential equation. It may be noted that, first-order ...
