# Comparison of crank based leg mechanism/locus
## the locus

The path of the foot is called locus.
The locus can be divided into four parts:
* support phase
* lift phase
* return phase
* lower phase
An other way to look at locus is in two phases:
* support phase
* transfer phase
Eitherway, the support phase is where the leg is carrying the weight of the vehicle and pushing it forward.
Other literature uses the terms swing and stance phase.

## Footpaths

In this section, you find the path of the foot as set of coordinates.
The table is shorted by turning point, support phase, turning point, transfer phase.

# Calculus Optimization Methods/Lagrange Multipliers

The method of Lagrange multipliers solves the constrained optimization problem by transforming it into a non-constrained optimization problem of the form:
Then finding the gradient and Hessian as was done above will determine any optimum values of $\operatorname {\mathcal {L}} (x_{1},x_{2},\ldots ,x_{n},\lambda )$.
Suppose we now want to find optimum values for $f(x,y)=2x^{2}+y^{2}$ subject to $x+y=1$ from [2].
Then the Lagrangian method will result in a non-constrained function.
The gradient for this new function is
* ${\frac {\partial {\mathcal {L}}}{\partial x}}(x,y,\lambda )=4x+\lambda (-1)=0$
* ${\frac {\partial {\mathcal {L}}}{\partial y}}(x,y,\lambda )=2y+\lambda (-1)=0$
* ${\frac {\partial {\mathcal {L}}}{\partial \lambda }}(x,y,\lambda )=1-x-y=0$
Finding the stationary points of the above equations can be obtained from their matrix from.
    ${\begin{bmatrix}4&0&-1\\0&2&-1\\-1&-1&0\end{bmatrix}}{\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\\\lambda \end{bmatrix}}={\begin{bmatrix}0\\0\\-1\end{bmatrix}}$
This results in $x=1/3,y=2/3,\lambda =4/3$.
Next we can use the Hessian as before to determine the type of this stationary point.
    $H({\mathcal {L}})={\begin{bmatrix}4&0&-1\\0&2&-1\\-1&-1&0\end{bmatrix}}$
Since $H({\mathcal {L}})>0$ then the solution $(1/3,2/3,4/3)$ minimizes $f(x,y)=2x^{2}+y^{2}$ subject to $x+y=1$ with $f(x,y)=2/3$.
# Fire on the Limestone Plains/Bush Fire Brigades/A New Era 1979 to 1989
## 1979

After the "Black Tuesday" February 13, 1979 fire Mr. Jim Rochford gathered together a group of local's and in October 1979 under C.F.C.O. Cliff Parsons a new era of the Hall Volunteer Bushfire Brigade commenced. The new Brigade had 14 financial members. The first captain was Ian Rosby

## 1986

Once again after many fires swept through the Jerrabomberra Valley in 1985 and 1986 a proposal was put forward that another volunteer bushfire brigade be formed. A public meeting was held on October 29, 1986 with the Jerrabomberra Volunteer Bush Brigade being officially formed on November 11, 1986.

## 1988

In 1988 the Williamsdale Bush Fire Brigade split into two, these were the Williamsdale Bush Fire Brigade (N.S.W.) and the Guises Creek Volunteer Bushfire Brigade (A.C.T.).

## 1989

At the instigation of Bush Fire Council a public meeting was held on 10 October 1989, at Stromlo Depot, to decide if a new Bush Fire Brigade should be set up covering the old Fairlight-The Rivers Brigade area in the A.C.T. The meeting voted in favour of setting up a new brigade. Simon Katz became the captain of Rivers Volunteer Bushfire Brigade. On 11 October 1989 BFC endorsed the formation of the new Brigade.
# Fire on the Limestone Plains/Bush Fire Organisation’s/The ACT Bush Fire Council

The severe bushfires which caused widespread damage in the Australian Capital Territory in January 1939, was the subject of enquiry by a Bush Fire Committee appointed by the Minister of State for the Interior, the Honorable J. McEwen, M.P.; among the recommendations was one favouring the appointment of a permanent Bush Fire Council to organise the prevention and suppression of bushfires in the A.C.T. The inaugural meeting of the Council was held on the 18 August 1939.

* Mr J. E. Morrow - Chief Lands Officer of the Department of the Interior
Office Bearers of the first Council were:
* Chairman - Mr C. E. Lane-Poole
* Vice-Chairman - Mr C. R. Cole

# Fire on the Limestone Plains/Bush Fire Organisation’s/The Bush Fire Control Organisation

On Monday 14 November 1927 the Bush Fire Control Organization had its inaugural meeting. The Chief Fire Controller was Mr M. R. Jacobs (Chief Forester). The Organization setup fire depots at MacDonald's Camp near Weetangera, Weavers' Property near Stromlo, Maxwells' Property at The Rivers, Gregorys' Property at Kambah and Horans' Property near the Yarralumla. The equipment at these depots included fire carts, beaters, rakes & axes, with horses for the fire carts being supplied by various Rural Lessees.
The following lessees have been appointed fire controllers in their respective districts: J. Edlington (Tuggeranong) ; T. Cargill (Yarralumla); D. Tully (Stromlo): A. N. Shepherd (Weetangera); E Bondfield and M. Cavanagh (Ginninderra); E. Shumack (Ainslie); .J. Mayo (Majura); D. Murray (Mill Flat); H. C. A. Reid (Tidbinbilla).
In 1932 the Bush Fire Control Organisation was reviewed when the Federal Territory (Rural) Lessees’ Association with a view to strengthening the Departmental Organisation obtained the ready co-operation of its members in the creation of bushfire control districts throughout the leased areas of the Territory outside the City Area. Ten (10) such districts were formed and Fire Controllers appointed for each district, the local landholders forming the control. Deputy Controllers were subsequently appointed in each district and arrangements made for co-operation by landholders outside the Territory, particularly on the northern and western boundaries. Duties of Controllers It was arranged that the undermentioned duties would be performed by district Controllers:-
* To take charge of all fire fighting equipment supplied by the Department;
* To make an inventory of all available fire fighting equipment the property of landholders in the district;
* To organise the fire fighting resources of the district;
* To take charge of operations in the event of an outbreak of fire in conjunction with official fire controllers;
* To attend meetings of Fire Control Officers. The Deputy Controllers will deputise for the Controller during his absence and generally assist the Controller during fire fighting operations.

# Fire on the Limestone Plains/Bush Fires/1952 to 1956
## 1952 to 1956

During these 4 mild bush seasons the F.C.T. averaged 11 minor fires per season.
   There were 14 fires during the 1952-53 Fire Season, the largest being the east slope of Black Mountain on the 3 March 1953 (85 acres). During the 1953-54 Fire Season there were 2 larges bush fires Mt Bimberi on the 16 December 1953 (1,000 acres) and Angle Crossing on the 27 December 1953 (700 acres). The 1954-55 Fire Season saw 9 fires attended by Bush Fire Council units, the largest from a lightning strike at Shannon's Falls Creek on 26 December 1954 (2,500 acres). The 1955-56 Fire Season had only 4 fires attended by Bush Fire Council units in the A.C.T. with a total area of 3 acres burnt.
