Haptic interactions with stiff virtual surfaces feel more realistic when a short-duration transient is added to the spring force at contact. But how should this event-based transi...
A method for analytically calculating the forces between systems of rigid bodies in resting (non-colliding) contact is presented. The systems of bodies may either be in motion or ...
A formulation for the contact forces between curved surfaces in resting (non-colliding) contact is presented. In contrast to previous formulations, constraints on the allowable ta...
Creole is a new born language emerging in most cases where language contact takes place. Simulating behaviors that creole communities are formed in some environments, we could cont...
— Recent studies on wireless sensor networks (WSN) have shown that the duration of contacts and inter-contacts are power law distributed. While this is a strong property of these...
