We present the theory of a new class of logical algebras, known as K-algebras, which was built on a group G by adjoining the induced binary operation on G. We introduce the notion of fuzzy K-ideals of K- algebras and present some interesting properties. We describe fuzzy isomorphism theorems of K-algebras. We discuss a new generalized fuzzy ideal of a K-algebra and present some of its properties. We explain the concept of interval- valued fuzzy ideals of K-algebras and discuss some of their results. We explain the notion of bifuzzy ideals of K-algebras and investigate several interesting properties. We also talk about the concept of bifuzzy topological K-algebras. Данное издание не является...

A C-band dish is a colloquial name for a TVRO satellite dish used to receive satellite television signals from FSS-type satellites on the microwave C band. BUDs are usually 6 1/2 to 12 feet or two to 3.5 meters in diameter, and have been a source of much consternation due to their reputation as an eyesore. Neighborhoods with restrictive covenants usually prohibit this size of dish, except where restrictions are illegal. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A Big Wheel is a type of tricycle, usually made of plastic, with an oversized front wheel, that rides very low to the ground. Introduced by Louis Marx and Company in 1969, the Big Wheel was a very popular toy in the 1970s in the United States, partly because of its low cost and partly because consumer groups said it was a safer alternative to the traditional tricycle or bicycle. The design was quickly imitated, under a variety of brand names. Although Big Wheel was a registered trademark, it was frequently used as a generic name for any toy whose design resembled that of Marx. Following the bankruptcy and liquidation of Marx Toys in the early 1980s, the Big Wheel brand name and molds were sold...

This thesis work addresses the bilateral teleoperation of a planetary rover, named MERLIN (Mobile Experimental Robot for Localization and Intelligent Navigation). The teleoperation platform is built up between the rover and a haptic device. The haptic device provides a force-feedback mechanism, which describes the environmental conditions regarding the obstacles, based on the ranging information from the rover. Therefore, obstacle avoidance can be achieved independent of the visualization of the environment, which, on the other hand, will reduce the communication burden. This can be highly desirable in low-light conditions and in remote teleoperation cases, in which difficulties may arise in visualizing the surroundings. Communication...

"A robot in every home" [B. Gates, 2007] is a compelling forecast when viewed in light of the robot industry’s data and projections. Without any doubt the interaction of robots with the real world is the key for the growth of this business, furthermore humanoid robots are expected to be main actors in this "Robotics Revolution". However,although the technologies are maturing, the foreseen levels of interaction are still beyond current capabilities. This work focuses on the field that is currently receiving the most significant efforts in Humanoid Robotics: hand design. Currently, a state-of–the-art artificial hand can be compared to an almost totally anesthetized human hand. Such poor sensorization makes even the simplest...

In the era of globalization the author contributes to the theoretical deepening of bioethics and establishes new discursive criteria which, based on the ranking of the principles, generate a procedure that be able to establish necessary and sufficient conditions for rational discussion and taking, morally and legally, correct decisions in the public domain. He shows us how the inability of traditional ethics to generate moral norms generally accepted for governing techno-scientific action has made visible a very dangerous antinomy. The elucidation of this antinomy represents the consolidation of a procedural, deliberative and reasonable bioethics, based on a correct diagnosis of our age. This brief but necessary book aims to ascertain...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In oceanic biogeochemistry, the biological pump is the sum of a suite of biologically-mediated processes that transport carbon from the surface euphotic zone to the ocean's interior. The organic carbon that forms the biological pump is transported primarily by sinking particulate material, for example dead organisms (including algal mats) or faecal pellets. However, some carbon reaches the deep ocean as dissolved organic carbon (DOC) by physical transport processes such as downwelling rather than sinking. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

Biomechatronics is an applied interdisciplinary science that aims to integrate mechanical elements, electronics and parts of biological organisms. Biomechatronics includes the aspects of biology, mechanics, and electronics. It also encompasses the fields of robotics and neuroscience. One example of Biomechatronics is a study done by Hugh Herr a professor at M.I.T.. Herr tore off the muscles of frog legs, to attach to a mechanical fish and by pulsing electrical current through the muscle fibers, which caused the fish to swim. The goal of these experiments is to make devices that interact with human muscle, skeleton, and nervous systems. The end result is that the devices will help with human motor control that was lost or impaired by...

Non-renewable fossil fuels will deplete one day. To meet the future energy demand, we have to turn to renewable energy including solar energy, wind energy, bioenergy, hydroelectricity, wave energy, tidal power and geothermal energy. Providing the only renewable alternative for liquid transportation fuel, bioenergy comes directly from renewable biomass and exists as the products of methane, methanol, ethanol and other biofuels. Methanol from biomass is an important bioenergy that can be used as the fuel for a direct alcohol fuel cell or as a raw material for biodiesel. This book is based on Q. Wang’s PhD research which has been well documented by the media. In the book, methanol conversion from sugar beet pulp with pectin methyl...

The functions of the hand are numerous: the most important are the functions of touch and prehension. We use our hands to perform a variety of other tasks that play an essential role in our lives, such as nutritional, expressive, sexual, hygienic, and thermoregulatory functions. Since we can perform such a remarkable array of functions with our hands, the question arises: How does the central nervous system organize and control the tasks that we carry out with our hands? The research presented in this book was the first to systematically examine the forces exerted by five digits on a hand-held object duriung static force and torque production tasks. In addition, this research addresses the strategies used by the central nervous system to...

Over the last decade, interest in biometric based identification and verification systems has increased considerably. One application is the use of speech signals, face images or fingerprints in order to supplement security systems based on passwords. Biometric recognition can also be applied to other areas, such as passport control (immigration checkpoints), forensic work (to determine whether a biometric sample belongs to a suspect) and law enforcement applications (e.g. surveillance). While biometric systems based on face images and/or speech signals can be effective, their performance can degrade in the presence of challenging conditions. In face based systems this can be in the form of a change in the illumination direction and/or...
