This paper is concerned with the study of the kinematic and kinetic analysis of a slider crank linkage using D'Alembert's principle. The links of the considered mechanism are assumed to be rigid. The analytical solution to observe the motion (displacement, velocity, and acceleration), reactions at each joint, torque required to drive the mechanism and the shaking force have been computed by a computer program written in MATLAB language over one complete revolution of the crank shaft. The results are compared with a finite element simulation carried out by using ANSYS Workbench software and are found to be in good agreement. A graphical method (relative velocity and acceleration method) has been also applied for two phases of the crank shaft (q2 = 10° and 130°). The results obtained from this method (graphical) are compared with those obtained from analytical and numerical method and are found very acceptable. To make the analysis linear the friction force on the joints and sliding interface are neglected. All results, in this work, are obtained when the crank shaft turns at a uniform angular velocity (w2 = 188.5 rad/s) and time dependent gas pressure force on the slider crown.

A general scheme is presented to decompose a d-by-d unitary matrix as the product of two-level unitary matrices with additional structure and prescribed determinants. In particular, the decomposition can be done by using two-level matrices in d - 1 classes, where each class is isomorphic to the group of 2 × 2 unitary matrices. The proposed scheme is easy to apply, and useful in treating problems with the additional structural restrictions. A Matlab program is written to implement the scheme, and the result is used to deduce the fact that every quantum gate acting on n-qubit registers can be expressed as no more than 2n-1(2n-1) fully controlled single-qubit gates chosen from 2n-1 classes, where the quantum gates in each class share the same n - 1 control qubits. Moreover, it is shown that one can easily adjust the proposed decomposition scheme to take advantage of additional structure evolving in the process.

General Method

The aim of this work is to define a general method for the optimization of composite patch repairing. Fracture mechanics theory shows that the stress intensity factor tends towards an asymptotic limit K∞.This limit is given by Rose’s formula and is a function of the thicknesses and mechanical properties of the cracked plate, the composite patch and the adhesive. The proposed approach consists in considering this limit as an objective function that needs to be minimized. In deed lowering this asymptote will reduce the values of the stress intensity factor hence optimize the repair. However to be effective this robust design must satisfy the stiffness ratio criteria. The resolution of this double objective optimization problem with Matlab program allowed us determine the appropriate geometric and mechanical properties that allow the optimum design; that is the selection of the adhesive, the patch and their respective thicknesses.
