Mathematical Model for Design Conditions for Cooling Load Calculations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A numerical procedure using Newton-Raphson technique is used for finding wet bulb temperature from observed dry bulb temperature relative humidity and barometric pressure. Assuming maximum temperatures ...
Human Factors in Machine Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A brief literature survey of human factors engineering as applied to machine design is presented. The literature has been classified under the categories: (i) static and functional body dimensions, ...
Boundary Surfaces, Limit Surfaces, Crossable and Noncrossable Surfaces in Workspace of Mechanical Manipulators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The workspace of a regional structure of a manipulator is bounded by a Jacobian surface (where the Jacobian is singular) or a D -surface (where one or more of the joints achieve a limit ...
Workspace Analysis of Mechanical Manipulators Using Polynomial Discriminants
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new method, for the investigation of manipulator workspace, based on polynomial displacement equations and their discriminants is proposed in this paper. The approach followed enables one to ...
Closed and Expanded Form of Manipulator Dynamics Using Lagrangian Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An alternative derivation of the equations of motion of a chain of rigid bodies using Lagrangian equations of motion is presented. In an effort to reduce the complexity of the coefficients ...
Workspace Analysis of Regional Structures of Manipulators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The fundamental equations for conducting workspace analysis of a class of manipulators having the last three revolute joint axes intersect orthogonally at a point are provided in this paper. ...
Grashof-Type Rotatability Criteria of Spherical Five-Bar Linkages
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper rotatability criteria of spherical five-bar linkages are analytically derived. First an equivalent linkage in which the sum of any two link lengths is less than π is found and ...
Inverse Kinematics of General 6R and 5R,P Serial Manipulators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper we present a solution to the inverse kinematics problems for serial manipulators of general geometry. The method is presented in detail as it applies to a 6R manipulator of ...
Synthesis of a Six-Link Spatial Mechanism via Screw Triangle Geometry, Successive Screw Displacements, and Pair Geometry Constraints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Using the theory of screw triangle geometry, successive screw displacement, and pair geometry constraints, a generalized synthesis procedure is proposed and demonstrated to synthesize for a variety ...
Synthesis of Seven-Link Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The mechanisms derived from the seven-link chains with five links in their two loops and having two degrees of freedom are examined for six synthesis problems. Using displacement matrices, ...
