ASME ( American Society of Mechanical Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a professional association that, in its own words, "promotes the art, science, and practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe" via "continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations, and other forms of outreach." ASME is thus an engineering society, a standards organization, a research and development organization, a lobbying organization, a provider of training and education, and a nonprofit organization. Founded as an engineering society focused on mechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today multidisciplinary and global.

A Controller Avoiding Dynamic Model Degeneracy of Parallel Robots During Singularity Crossing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Parallel robots present singular configurations that divide the operational workspace into several aspects. It was proven that type 2 and leg passive joint twist system (LPJTS) singularities can be crossed with a trajectory ...
Physical Interpretation of Rigidity for Bearing Formations: Application to Mobility and Singularity Analyses
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Research on formation control and cooperative localization for multirobot systems has been an active field over the last years. A powerful theoretical framework for addressing formation control and localization, especially ...
Design of an Accurate and Stiff Wooden Industrial Robot: First Steps Toward Robot Eco-sustainable Mechanical Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article investigates the feasibility of replacing metal robot links by wooden bodies for eco-sustainable design’s purpose. Wood is a material with low environmental impact and a good mass-to-stiffness ratio. However, ...
Performing Energy-Efficient Pick-and-Place Motions for High-Speed Robots by Using Variable Stiffness Springs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Typically, for pick-and-place robots operating at high speeds, an enormous amount of energy is lost during the robot braking phase. This is due to the fact that, during such operational phase, most of the energy is dissipated ...
Experimental Safety Analysis of R-Min, an Underactuated Parallel Robot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The R-Min robot is an intrinsically safe parallel manipulator dedicated to pick-and-place operations. The proposed architecture is based on a five-bar mechanism, with additional passive joints in order to obtain a planar ...
A Reduced Mass-Spring-Mass-Model of Compliant Robots Dedicated to the Evaluation of Impact Forces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The introduction of intrinsic compliance in the design of robots allows to reduce the risk for humans working in the vicinity of a robotic cell. Indeed, it permits to decouple the dynamic effects of the links’ inertia from ...
