Perceived Submaximal Leg Extension Forces of Young Adult Males
The purpose was to examine actual force (AF) productions of males for accuracy during leg extensions when given a random desired force (DF) ranging from 10-90% of maximal force (MF). Thirty males ranging from 18 to 30 years of age (M = 21.99 + 3.04), who had no previous experience with the test …

The design of a Hall Effect force sensing flexure on the front leg of a robotic cheetah
… it is important to be able to characterize the forces felt on the moving joints. To achieve this, we designed an easy to implement force sensor that used Hall Effect sensors mounted on a flexure to measure force. The flexure was designed to be compliant in two directions, along the ground normal …

Haptic simulation of naturally occuring textures and soil properties
Methods for developing realistic haptic (force feedback) simulations of soils and rocks are presented. Mathematical models of the dynamics of a virtual probe mechanically interacting with a virtual object are developed to provide the basis for analysis and simulation. The models then incorporate …

The Effect of a Group of Obstacles on a Flow and Dispersion over a Surface
… group of obstacles , based on the "distributed force" model. An array of obstacles is represented as a region without solid obstructions but with distributed body forces resisting the flow. Linear analyses are presented of inviscid, laminar (or constant eddy viscosity) and turbulent flow through …
