A developed code is applied to simulate relative motion of floating bodies in a side-by-side arrangement, including effects of a fender and a hawser. The developed code is based on the flux-difference splitting scheme for immiscible incompressible fluids and the hybrid Cartesian/immersed boundary method. To validate the developed code for free surface flows around deforming boundaries, the water wave generation is simulated, which is caused by bed movement. The computed wave profile and time histories of wave elevation are compared with other experimental and computational results. The effects of a fender and a hawser are modeled by asymmetric force acting on the floating bodies according to a relative displacement with the bounds, in which the fender and the hawser exert no force on the bodies. It has been observed that the floating body can be accelerated by a gap flow due to a phase difference caused by the free surface. Grid independency is established for the computed time history of the body velocity, based on three different size grids.

This paper proposes the range and velocity of the object estimation method using a moving camera. Structure and motion (SaM) estimation is to estimate the Euclidean geometry of the object as well as the relative motion between the camera and object. Unlike the previous works, the proposed estimation method can relax the camera and object motion constraints. To this end, we arrange the dynamics of moving camera-moving object relative motion model in an appropriate form such that the nonlinear observer can be employed for the SaM estimation. Through both simulations and experiments we have confirmed the validity of the proposed estimation algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a new method of reconstructing the hand models for individuals, which include the link structure models, the homologous skin surface models and the homologous tetrahedral mesh models in a reference posture. As for the link structure model, the local coordinate system related to each link consists of the joint rotation center and the axes of joint rotation, which can be estimated based on the trajectories of optimal markers on the relative skin surface region of the subject obtained from the motion capture system. The skin surface model is defined as a three-dimensional triangular mesh, obtained by deforming a template mesh so as to fit the landmark vertices to the relative marker positions obtained motion capture system. In this process, anatomical dimensions for the subject, manually measured by a caliper, are also used as the deformation constraints.

The modal characteristics of constrained multibody systems undergoing constant accelerated motions are investigated in this paper. Relative coordinates are employed to derive the equations of motion, which are generally nonlinear in terms of the coordinates. The dynamic equilibrium position of a constrained multibody system needs to be obtained from the nonlinear equations of motion, which are then linearized at the dynamic equilibrium position. The mass and the stiffness matrices for the modal analysis can be obtained from the linearized equations of motion. To verify the effectiveness and the accuracy of the proposed method, two numerical examples are solved and the results obtained by using the proposed method are compared with those obtained by analytical and other numerical methods. The proposed method is found to be accurate as well as effective in predicting the modal characteristics of constrained multibody systems undergoing constant accelerated motions.

Degradation of image caused by relative motion between the object and the imaging system (like a camera with its platform) is detrimental to precision photogrammetry. Principal modes of relative motion are identified. The discussion is, however, concentrated on the systematic motions, translatory and rotatory. Various analogical approaches of compensating for the image motion are cited. An analytical-computational approach is presented. This one considers the relationship of transformation bet ween the image and the object, known as the collinearity condition. The standard forms of collinearity condition equations are presented. Augmentation of these equations with regard to both translatory and rotatory motions are expounded. With ever increasing use of high speed computers (as well as analytical plotters in the realm of photogrammetry), this approach seems to be more costeffective and seems to yield better precision in the long run than other approaches that concentrate on analogical corrections to the image itself.

This paper presents a systematic formulation for the kinematic and dynamic analysis of flexible multibody systems. The system equations of motion are derived in terms of relative and elastic coordinates using velocity transformation technique. The position transformation equations that relate the relative and elastic coordinates to the Cartesian coordinates for the two contiguous flexible bodies are derived. The velocity transformation matrix is derived systematically corresponding to the type of kinematic joints connecting the bodies and system path matrix. This matrix is employed to represent the equations of motion in relative coordinate space. Two examples are taken to test the method developed here.

A cylindrical cam with a translating roller follower provides to change the rotational motion of the cam to the translation motion of the follower. It's a very useful mechanism in the automation. But, it's very difficult that the shape is defined accurately. This paper proposes a shape design method of the cylindrical cam with a translation roller follower using the relative velocity method$\^$(9,11-13)/ : The relative velocity method calculates the relative velocity of the follower versus the cam at a center of roller, and then determines a contact point by using the geometric relationships and the kinematical constraints. Finally, we present examples in order to prove the accuracy of the proposed methods.

A hybrid control method based on using the relative motion between a manipulator and a workpiece is described for a two-dimensional manipulator, in which it is assumed that there are no collisions between the robot manipulator and the workpiece, and that we use a computed force law which is similar to the computed torque law in the trajectory tracking problem of a robot manipulator. The effectiveness of the proposed hybrid control emthod is illustratec by some simulations.

This work presents the reconstruction of impact force produced by the collision between two elastic structures. The 2-DOF impactor was designed. The shape control of impact farce using correlations of the dynamic characteristics and impact force history between two elastic structures is accomplished. The effects of the relative motion between impactor and elastic structure on the impact force shape are studied. Reconstruction characteristics of impact force in cantilever beam are reviewed.
