Abstract: This paper presents a haptic simulator based on a force model that renders precise and crisp force feed back for a range of applications such as grinding, polishing and deburring of metals ...

Abstract: Methods to implement stochastic simulations on the graphics processing unit (GPU) have been developed. These algorithms are used in a simulation of microassembly and nanoassembly with optical ...

Abstract: Optical tweezers have emerged as a powerful tool for micro- and nanomanipulation. Using optical tweezers to perform automated assembly requires on-line monitoring of components in the assembly ...

Abstract: This paper presents algorithms for estimating length, location, and orientation of nanowires in a fluidic workspace using images obtained by optical section microscopy. Images containing multiple ...

Abstract: This paper presents a radial basis function based approach to generate simplified models to estimate the trapping probability in optical trapping experiments using offline simulations. The difference ...
