Abstract: Robot frame compliance has a large negative effect on the global accuracy of the system when large external forces/torques are exerted. This phenomenon is particularly problematic in applications where the robot is required ...

Abstract: Particle image velocimetry (PIV) of four cylinders with different cross sections were performed in a recirculating water channel at Reynolds numbers of 5000 and 10,000. The cylinders were split into two distinct categories; ...

Abstract: Pipe wall condition assessment is critical for targeted maintenance and failure prevention in water distribution systems. This paper proposes a novel approach for condition assessment of water pipelines by adapting the ...
