Abstract: A computational procedure is presented for obtaining numerical solutions to the trajectory optimization problem associated with synthesizing robot dynamic trajectories with maximum load carrying ...

Abstract: Two types of problems associated with load carrying capacity of robot manipulators are studied. The first type of problem involves determining the maximum load carrying capacity of a robot ...

Abstract: Char attrition is the main mechanism for the fine char generation in PFBC. The char attrition rates were significantly different for each of the two coal chars tested. Specific char attrition ...

Abstract: A bench-scale fluidized bed combustor with a novel fluidizing gas injection manifold was successfully built for characterization of Australian black coals under PFBC conditions. Instead of the ...
