Analysis and Design of Protein Based Nanodevices: Challenges and Opportunities in Mechanical Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nanomachines are devices that are in the size range of billionths of meters (10−9m) and therefore are built necessarily from individual atoms. These devices will have intrinsic mobilities that ...
Discretely Actuated Manipulator Workspace Generation by Closed Form Convolution
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We determine workspaces of discretely actuated manipulators using convolution of real-valued functions on the Special Euclidean Group. Each workspace is described in terms of a density function ...
A Jacobian-Based Algorithm for Planning Attitude Maneuvers Using Forward and Reverse Rotations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Algorithms for planning quasistatic attitude maneuvers based on the Jacobian of the forward kinematic mapping of fully-reversed (FR) sequences of rotations are proposed in this paper. An FR ...
