Direct Computation of Grasping Force for Three-Finger Tip-Prehension Grasps
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper deals with the computation of grasping forces for grasps using three-fingered tip-prehension. Of primary interest is the optimization of the internal forces and the direct computation ...
An Improved Transfer Matrix Method for Steady-State Analysis of Nonlinear Rotor-Bearing Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An improved transfer matrix method is developed to analyze nonlinear rotor-bearing systems. The rotating shaft is described by the Timoshenko beam theory which considers the effect of the rotary ...
Application of Linear Assignment Model for Planning of Robotic Printed Circuit Board Assembly
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A planning method is presented for achieving shorter working-in-process and thus better productivity of printed circuit board assembly. This method finds the optimal sequence of component placement ...
Planning of Component Placement/Insertion Sequence and Feeder Setup in PCB Assembly Using Genetic Algorithm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new application of the genetic algorithm approach is introduced to solve printed circuit board assembly planning problems. The developed genetic algorithm finds the sequence of component ...
Effect of Contact Pressure on Bond Strength of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer to Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this technical note, the importance of contact pressure (
