7-DOF Robotic Arm XY-Plane Translational Stability
… method to anticipate and stabilize these induced forces. By calculating the forces generated by the movement of a 7-DOF Sawyer robotic arm using the arm’s Universal Robotics Description Format (URDF) parameters provided by Spear (2017) and a Denavit-Hartenberg method for the geometric solution of …

Finite Element Analysis Based Modeling of Magneto Rheological Dampers
… the shape of the piston affects the maximum force that the damper can provide. In designing MR dampers, the designer always faces the challenge of providing the largest forces in the most compact and efficient envelope. Therefore, it is important to identify the configuration that gives more …

Characterisation of Aerosols Generated by Pressurised Metered Dose Inhalers
… was thought that<br/>the variations in actuation forces of pMDIs and temperatures at which they are<br/>used might contribute to their low consistency.<br/>A one-dimensional Matlab computational model was developed in order to calcu-<br/>late spray properties at the exit of the device where …

Formation and extraction of a dense plasma jet from a helicon-plasma-injected inertial electrostatic confinement device
… measurement of the electron energy spectra. The force provided by the plasma jet was measured using a piezoelectric force sensor. Each of these measurements provided an important window into the nature of the plasma jet. COMSOL simulations provided additional evidence needed to create a model to …

Direct simulations of cells motions and deformations in flow
… with both smooth and uneven walls under adhesion force between the leukocytes and the channel wall. Leukocytes are represented by two composite fluid models. The first model is the compound-drop model in which the cytoplasm and the nucleus are modeled as fluids, and the second one is the …

Seismic behaviour of structures with basements in liquefiable soil
… whilst maintaining the natural isolation provided by liquefied soil. The generation of positive excess pore pressures during shaking increased the buoyancy force provided by the basement. When the ratio of uplift to total weight during liquefaction was controlled, this buoyancy reduced …

Tribological Aspects of the Self-Loosening of Threaded Fasteners
… coefficient causing a reduction in the clamp force provided for an assembly when tightened to a specific torque value. - The self-loosening characteristics of prevailing torque nuts were also investigated. It was found that there was a significant loss of prevailing torque when a fastner …

Targeted energy transfer using nonlinear energy sinks for the attenuation of transient loads on building structures
… elements. The essentially nonlinear restoring force provided by these elements allows the NES to interact with any mode of the primary structure to which the NES is attached and participate in targeted energy transfer (TET), the broadband transfer of energy from the primary structure to the NES …

COMPLIANT END-EFFECTOR COUPLING FOR ROBOTIC ASSEMBLY
… to comply with the environment and accomplish force as well as position control. Examples of such tasks are constrained motion, and tasks associated with touch or feel in fine assembly. Few compliance related tasks have been automated and is usually by means of active compliance control. The …
