Object Dynamics

Skilled manipulation requires forming memories of object dynamics, previously assumed to be associated with entire objects. However, we recently demonstrated that people can form multiple motor memories when explicitly instructed to move different locations on an object to different targets. Here, we show that separate motor memories can be learned for different contact goals, which involve a unique combination of a control point and target.

Cermets are designed to optimize the mechanical properties of ceramics (hard and strong component) and metals (ductile and tough component) into one system. However, the processing of such systems is a problem in obtaining fully dense composite without deleterious reaction products. In the lightweight (2.65 g/cc) B4C-Al cermet, many of the processing problems have been circumvented. It is now possible to process fully dense B4C-Al cermet with tailored microstructures and achieve unique combination of mechanical properties (fracture strength of over 600 MPa and fracture toughness of 12 MPa-m1/2). In this paper, microstructure and fractography of B4C-Al cermets, tested under dynamic and static loading conditions, are described.The cermet is prepared by infiltration of Al at 1150°C into partially sintered B4C compact under vacuum to full density. Fracture surface replicas were prepared by using cellulose acetate and thin-film carbon deposition. Samples were observed with a Philips 3000 at 100 kV.

Human beings have evolved to become the most dominant species on Earth. This astonishing transformation is usually explained in terms of cognitive ability—people are just smarter than all the rest. But this book argues that culture—our ability to learn from each other—has been the essential ingredient of our remarkable success. The book shows how a unique combination of cultural adaptation and large-scale cooperation has transformed our species and assured our survival—making us the different kind of animal we are today. The book is based on the Tanner Lectures delivered at Princeton University, featuring challenging responses across the chapters.

Roulette Wheel

Orienteering problem (OP) is an NP-Hard graph problem. The nodes of the graph are associated with scores or rewards and the edges with time delays. The goal is to obtain a Hamiltonian path connecting the two necessary check points, i.e. the source and the target along with a set of control points such that the total collected score is maximized within a specified time limit. OP finds application in several fields like logistics, transportation networks, tourism industry, etc. Most of the existing algorithms for OP can only be applied on complete graphs that satisfy the triangle inequality. Real-life scenario does not guarantee that there exists a direct link between all control point pairs or the triangle inequality is satisfied. To provide a more practical solution, we propose a stochastic greedy algorithm (RWS_OP) that uses the roulette wheel selectionmethod, does not require that the triangle inequality condition is satisfied and is capable of handling both complete as well as incomplete graphs. Based on several experiments on standard benchmark data we show that RWS_OP is faster, more efficient in terms of time budget utilization and achieves a better performance in terms of the total collected score ascompared to a recently reported algorithm for incomplete graphs.

<p>Saat ini, citra satelit resolusi sangat tinggi digunakan dalam berbagai macam aplikasi, terutama pemetaan skala besar. Sebelum dapat digunakan, citra satelit tersebut harus diorthorektifikasi terlebih dahulu. Data <em>Digital Surface Model </em>(DSM) dan <em>Ground Control Point</em> (GCP) adalah dua data utama yang diperlukan saat melakukan orthorektifikasi. Perbedaan data DSM yang digunakan akan menghasilkan perbedaan nilai ketelitian horizontal pada kedua citra tegak hasil orthorektifikasi. Pada penelitian ini digunakan dua jenis DSM yaitu SRTM dan Terrasar-X. Ketelitian vertikal dari SRTM adalah 90 m sedangkan ketelitian vertikal dari Terrasar-X adalah 12,5 m. Penelitian ini berlokasi di Wilayah Buli, Kabupaten Halmahera Timur, Provinsi Maluku. Terdapat tiga sensor citra satelit yang digunakan yaitu Pleiades, Quickbird dan Worldview-2 yang digunakan pada lokasi penelitian. Total GCP yang digunakan adalah 33 titik, tiap titiknya diukur dengan melakukan pengamatan geodetik dan memiliki ketelitian horizontal ≤15 cm dan ketelitian vertikal ≤30 cm. Ketelitian horizontal dari citra tegak satelit resolusi sangat tinggi diperoleh dengan melakukan uji terhadap Independent Check Point (ICP). Total ICP yang digunakan adalah 12 titik, tiap titik ICP diukur dengan metode dan standar yang sama dengan titik GCP. Ketelitian horizontal dengan Circular Error (CE 90) dari citra tegak satelit menggunakan data SRTM adalah 18,856 m sedangkan ketelitian horizontal dengan Circular Error (CE 90) dari citra tegak satelit menggunakan data Terrasar-X adalah 2.168 m . Hasil dari penelitian ini membuktikan bahwa ketelitian vertikal data DSM yang digunakan memberikan pengaruh pada citra tegak satelit hasil orthorektifikasi tersebut. Mengacu pada Peraturan Kepala BIG nomor 15 tahun 2014, citra tegak satelit hasil orthorektifikasi menggunakan data Terrasar-X sebagai DSM memenuhi ketelitian horizontal peta dasar kelas 3 skala 1:5.000 sedangkan citra tegak satelit hasil orthorektifikasi menggunakan data SRTM sebagai DSM tidak dapat memenuhi ketelitian horizontal peta dasar skala besar.</p><p><strong>Kata kunci:</strong> orthorektifikasi, DSM, ketelitian horizontal</p>
