Abstract:
This paper presents a compliant control method for insertion of complex objects with concavities. Most work on robot assembly using compliant motion control schemes focuses on overcoming jamming conditions for simple peg-in-hole problems, and cannot be used for complex shapes frequently encountered in assembly applications. When an object is being inserted to a hole or slot with a small clearance, a contact path is issued to compensate for uncertainties. When the object shape is complex, however, the contact state changes several times and severely, making compliant control difficult. The algo

Abstract:
Non-compliance to hygienic practices in contact lens wear is regarded as a significant risk factor for contact lens-related complications. Non-compliant behaviour continues to prevent efforts to improve contact lens safety despite advancements in lens materials and care solutions. The objective of this study was to identify the association between knowledge, compliance and complications of contact lens wear. A cross-sectional design was used and contact lens users among medical faculty students were identified and recruited via convenience sampling throughout October 2013 to March 2014. A tota

Abstract:
A general inverse dynamic model which is applicable to closed-chain mechanisms with contact compliance is presented. This class of mechanism has relatively rigid members and joints, but experiences compliant interactions with objects and the environment; examples include walking machines operating on natural terrain, devices for grasping a compliant object, and wheeled mobile robots. Previous approaches for formulating inverse dynamic models of compliant mechanisms have been approximations or limited to simple configurations and open-chain mechanisms.

Abstract:
In a mechanism or system of “rigid” bodies that are joined or connected by compliant points of contact, an external impact at one point in the system generates a pulse of reaction force that propagates outward successively through neighboring joints or connections. At each point of contact between adjacent bodies, this wave of reaction force is just sufficient to change the relative velocities so that interpenetration of the bodies is prevented; i.e., the reactions enforce the displacement constraints. Each connection has a local wave speed that depends on the contact compliance and the mass o

Abstract:
Current techniques which have been devised for motion planning and control of compliant multi-fingered grippers are based on the assumption of a constant compliance. The present investigation was undertaken to examine the validity of this assumption. To this end, the variational inequalities approach and the finite element method were used to formulate the general frictional contact problem. A two-step algorithm, which employs Quadratic Programming and non-differential optimization algorithms, is used to solve the resulting variational inequality and to provide the contact characteristics of c

We study dynamics of a mass, moving on a straight line, and impacting against the rigid wall through a deformable body, that we model as a straight rod of negligible mass. The chosen constitutive model of the viscoelastic body comprises fractional derivatives of stress and strain and the restrictions on the coefficients that follow from Clausius Duhem inequality. We show that the dynamics of the problem is governed by a single differential equation of real order. The obtained equation was solved numerically.

Abstract:
Contact compliance, which may arise from elastic deformation near the contact point or in the surrounding structure, affects the dynamical friction behaviors in mechanical oscillators. An idealized model consisting of a mass sliding harmonically on a mass-less compliant contact produces hysteresis in friction-velocity plots. Dynamical friction features, depending on the contact stiffness, friction level, and the frequency and amplitude of oscillation, are predicted and quantified. Contact compliance can also lead to oscillations at the transition from slip to stick. Experiments and simulations

Injury, instrumentation, or surgery may change the functional biomechanics of the spine. Spinal fusion, the current surgical treatment of choice, stabilizes the spine by rigid fixation, reducing spinal mobility at the cost of increased stress at adjacent levels. Recently, alternatives to spinal fusion have been investigated. One such alternative is total disc replacements. The current generation of total disc replacements (TDRs) focuses on restoring the quantity of motion.

Linear-motion compliant mechanisms have generally been developed for small displacement applications. The objective of the thesis is to provide a basis for improved large-displacement linear-motion compliant mechanisms (LLCMs).

In order to facilitate the evaluation, comparison, and optimization of the performance of LLCMs, this work formulates and presents a set of metrics that evaluates displacement and off-axis stiffness.

An increasing number of mechanical systems are being designed on the micro and meso scales. Assembly and maintenance become increasingly difficult as the size of mechanisms decrease, and the minimum size of traditional elements such as bearings and springs is limited. The backlash of bearings also limits their usefulness in applications where high precision and repeatability are needed. At small scales and for high precision applications, alternative, non-traditional elements are needed.

This competition brings with it rising strategic uncertainties which endanger stability and have far reaching implications for WMD-related agreements.

Abstract:
The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) explicitly states that it “should not be considered as setting precedents for any other state or for fundamental principles of international law.” However, its unique negotiations process, provisions, and implementation created an important set of tools that could provide valuable insights and lessons for a Middle East Weapons of mass Destruction Free Zone (ME WMDFZ). Understanding these tools in a regional context based on the JCPOA experience could provide ME WMDFZ negotiators and researchers important additional tools, ideas, and lessons learne

The study utilised a mixed methodological approach comprising observations of inspections and interviews with people who work in probation, the Inspectorate and external stakeholders.

Improvements in tax transparency can help in strengthening public finances in developing countries that are adversely affected by COVID-19. The current context (i.e. a global pandemic, widespread economic slowdown/recessions, and declining tax revenues) engenders the urgency of improving domestic resource mobilisation (DRM) and the fight against illicit financial flows (IFFs). Even before the advent of COVID-19, developing coun
