Circle-Point Containment, Monte Carlo Method for Shape Matching Based on Feature Points Using the Technique of Sparse Uniform Grids
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Shape matching using their critical feature points is useful in mechanical processes such as precision measure of manufactured parts and automatic assembly of parts. In this paper, we present a practical algorithm for ...
A Two-Layer Heterogeneous Ant Colony System With Applications in Part-Picking Planning
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The tape carrier packaging machine with multiple sucking discs is designed for modern, high-speed packaging production line, which is an important part of the electronic manufacturing process. The efficiency of the ...
Monotone Descent Path Queries on Dynamic Terrains
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Monotone paths are useful in many engineering design applications. In this paper, we address the problem of answering monotone descent path queries on terrains that are continually changing. A terrain can be represented ...
Parametric Design of Scalable Mechanisms for Additive Manufacturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Additive manufacturing allows a direct fabrication of any sophisticated mechanism when the clearance of each joint is sufficiently large to compensate the fabrication error, which frees the designers of cumbersome assembly ...
A Tree-Shaped Support Structure for Additive Manufacturing Generated by Using a Hybrid of Particle Swarm Optimization and Greedy Algorithm
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Reducing the volume of support structures is a critical means for saving materials and budgets of additive manufacturing, and tree structure is an effective topology for this purpose. Although a few articles in literature ...
