Analysis of bridges with friction controllable sliding isolation system.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The paper operates at multiple levels, discussing the design of (1) slides, (2) talks composed of slides, and (3) a language for describing #1 and #2.

In this paper, an adaptive fuzzy sliding control is proposed and applied to a three-link passive manipulator.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The stability and convergence of the adaptive fuzzy sliding controller is proven both theoretically and practically by simulations.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In order to obtain the system's dynamics behavior inside the attractive region called sliding path,4 we will proceed step by step.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The maximum distance between the passive joints on the moving platform and the ones on the actuated linear slides can be obtained.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Now we show how to determine the range of the motion of the five actuated linear slides.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The two arms with the linear slides can be rotated 345° around their individual pivot points.

Fittings: the classroom incorporated six sliding doors, each 2.4m square, and specially designed computer benches and a white-board support.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The constraints on the reaction force (no take-off, no sliding) give also some limits on the initial velocity (or angular momentum).
From theCambridge English Corpus
The situation for tip-over or accelerated sliding motion between the mobile robot and the supporting ground is defined as unstable support.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Rolling and/or sliding contacts which are usually introduced to enhance manipulation dexterity complicate kinematic relationships.
From theCambridge English Corpus
When the target position is below the surface, the end-effector is slid on the surface and a compliant force is applied to the surface.
