Abstract: Point Laser Triangulation (PLT) probes are relatively new noncontact probes being integrated with Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs). Two prominent advantages of PLT probes are fast measuring ...

Abstract: Point Laser Triangulation (PLT) probes have significant advantages over traditional touch probes. These advantages include throughput and no contact force, which motivate use of PLT probes on ...

Abstract: New commercial Point Laser Triangulation (PLT) probes enable Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) to take faster, noncontact, accurate measurements. In this paper, we address how to apply this ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new technique for digitizing an unknown sculptured surface using a new multi-Laser Displacement Sensor (LDS) and an articulated Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM). The new ...

Abstract: The load distribution problem for two coordinating industrial robots handling a single object is studied in this paper. When two industrial robots grasp a single object, the total number of ...

Abstract: As a passive energy dissipation device, the fluid viscous damper (FVD) is effective for mitigating wind or seismic load-induced vibrations. In this paper, the effects of FVDs for a cable-stayed bridge under randomly generated ...

Abstract: An experimental system for a solar ejector refrigeration system under the periodic climate condition was designed and constructed. The influences of ambient temperature and solar radiation on the performance of the ...

Abstract: Due to its simplicity, the valveless pulsejet may be an ideal low cost propulsion system. In this paper, a new acoustic model is described, which can accurately predict the operating frequency ...
