โœฆ Synopsis

Force-sensitive multilevel input elements are introduced as the basic building blocks for compact-size input devices in mobile environments. Compared with switch-type keys, multilevel elements can decrease the number of keys on a keyboard while maintaining the input capacity. A multilevel input mechanism using force-sensitive sensor pads is demonstrated in a three-level three-element tactile chording system with multimodal feedback. Two schemes are introduced to segment the output range of the sensor into levels. For relatively unpracticed users, the scheme based on maximum "nger forces gives an average error rate of 20.2% and an input time of 2.24 s for a chord of three inputs. Reclassi"cation of the experimental data using Gaussian segmentation shows that signi"cant improvement of the performance can be expected.

In this paper, we investigate some cost-effective hybrid V -cycle multilevel algorithms for the discrete systems that arise when a mixed finite element approach is used to solve certain second-order elliptic boundary value problems. By introducing a small penalty parameter, the perturbed indefinite

In a variety of applications, especially in large scale dynamic systems, the mechanization of different vibration control elements in different locations would be decided by limitations placed on the modal vibration of the system and the inherent dynamic coupling between its modes. Also, the quality
