    A connection is established between the soliton equations and curves moving in a three dimensional space V3V_{3}. The sign of the self-interacting terms of the soliton equations are related to the signature of V3V_{3}. It is shown that there corresponds a moving curve to each soliton equations.Comment: Latex, 15 pp, to be published in Physics Letters

    Biped robot walking control on inclined planes with fuzzy parameter adaptation

    The bipedal structure is suitable for a robot functioning in the human environment, and assuming assistive roles. However, the bipedal walk is a poses a difficult control problem. Walking on even floor is not satisfactory for the applicability of a humanoid robot. This paper presents a study on bipedal walk on inclined planes. A Zero Moment Point (ZMP) based reference generation technique is employed. The orientation of the upper body is adjusted online by a fuzzy logic system to adapt to different walking surface slopes. This system uses a sampling time larger than the one of the joint space position controllers. A newly defined measure of the oscillatory behavior of the body pitch angle and the average value of the pelvis pitch angle are used as inputs to the fuzzy adaptation system. A 12-degrees-of-freedom (DOF) biped robot model is used in the full-dynamics 3-D simulations. Simulations are carried out on even floor and inclined planes with different slopes. The results indicate that the fuzzy adaptation algorithms presented are successful in enabling the robot to climb slopes of 5.6 degrees (10 percent)

    Einstein's field equations are solved exactly for static charged dust distributions. These solutions generalize the Majumdar Papapetrou metrics. Maxwell's equations lead to the equality of charge and mass densities of the dust distribution. Einstein's equatins reduce to a nonlinear version of Poisson's equation.Comment: RevTex, 4pp, to be published in Physical Review

    A Novel SUSY Energy Bound States Treatment of the Klein-Gordon Equation with PT-Supersymmetric and q-Deformed Hulthen Potential

    In this study, we focus on investigating the exact relativistic bound state spectra for supersymmetric, PT-supersymmetric and non-Hermitian versions of q-deformed parameter Hulthen potential. The Hamiltonian hierarchy mechanism, namely the factorization method, is adopted within the framework of SUSYQM. This algebraic approach is used in solving of the Klein-Gordon equation with the potential cases. The results obtained analytically by executing the straightforward calculations are in consistent forms for certain values of q. Achieving the results may have a particular interest for such applications. That is, they can be involved in determining the quantum structural properties of molecules for rovibrational states, and optical spectra characteristics of semiconductor devices with regard to the lattice dynamics [62-64]. They are also employed to construct broken or unbroken case of supersymmetric particle model concerning the interaction between the elementary particles [65].Comment: 13 page
