IN subject-matter this book is almost unique among our mathematical manuals. The only fellow to it is Clifford's “Kinematic.” It consists of six chapters, the first dealing with Displacement and ...

Cross-flow turbines, also known as vertical-axis turbines, are attractive for power generation from wind and water currents. Some cross-flow turbine designs optimize unsteady fluid forces and maximize ...

Non-Cartesian actuators are improving applications where they weren't even feasible before. Full definition of their dynamics and kinematics helps designers extract maximum performance from these ...
