Abstract: Modular and reconfigurable manipulators have gained popularity especially in the service sector, where the use of customized configurations has increased. Adaptable modular designs have come into advances in achieving ...

Abstract: Modular manipulators gained popularity for their implicit feature of “reconfigurability”—that is, the ability to serve multiple applications by adopting different configurations. As reported in the literature, most of the ...

Abstract: Customization of manipulators having unconventional parameters and link shapes have gained attention to accomplish nonrepetitive tasks in a given cluttered environment. Adaptive modular and reconfigurable designs are being ...

Abstract: For customized design of a hybrid manipulator for a specific application, selection of an appropriate configuration is always a challenge. To assist in this foremost decision in data-driven synthesis, a novel approach is ...

Abstract: Groundwater quality can be deteriorated by leachate that seeps through the landfills. Placing a low permeable barrier beneath the landfill is a cost-effective approach to protect the subsurface environment. Recently local ...
