Abstract: This paper discusses the modeling and control of a robotic manipulator with a new deburring tool, which integrates two pneumatic actuators to take advantage of a double cutting action. A ...

Abstract: JIc tests using the multiple specimen procedure described in ASTM standard E813 were conducted at room temperature and −45°C (−50°F) with five common carbon or low alloy cast steels, ...

Abstract: Active vibration control of an axially moving string by wave cancellation is presented. The control problem is formulated in the frequency domain. An exact, closed-form expression for the transfer ...

Abstract: The effect of blade row axial spacing on vortical and potential disturbances and gust response is studied for a compressor stator/rotor configuration near design and at high loadings using ...

Abstract: Analysis of constrained distributed parameter systems by the transfer function formulation is presented. The methodology is suitable for symbolic computation coding. The distributed system is an ...

Abstract: In this paper, the application of the transfer function formulation and the generalized displacement method (GDM) to the analysis of constrained distributed parameter systems is illustrated. Two ...

Abstract: A multi-input multi-output surface shape control system model is developed to study wavefront aberration correction. The plant model represents a deformable mirror and utilizes a finite element ...

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce the decentralized fault detection filter, a structure that results from merging decentralized estimation theory with the game theoretic fault detection filter. A ...

Abstract: This article models the dynamics of cilia-based devices (soft cantilever-type, vibrating devices that are excited by external vibrations) for mixing and manipulating liquids in microfluidic ...
