Abstract:

Online coordination of multiple robots working on a single workstation requires special attention. In these applications it is generally necessary that the robot arm follow a desired path in workspace so that it does not crash with any obstacle or the other robots. In this paper a two link planar robot crossing a rectangular obstacle is considered. The proposed idea is to define the relationship between obstacle's dimensions and the required joints trajectories parameters which allow the robot to reach its destination in the presence of an obstacle. First, the desired path for robot avoiding t

This study analyzes the triple path obstacles of land transfer income in supporting rural revitalization under the premise of existing policy support. It is innovative to try to de-qualitatively analyze the obstacle factors and quantitatively measure the degree of obstacles. We examined the potential obstacles to land transfer income supporting rural revitalization in China, measured the potential comprehensive obstacle degree of 31 provincial-level administrative divisions’ land transfer income supporting rural revitalization, and constructed a way to resolve the differences.

Abstract:

In this paper, we propose a new method of grasp planning for a manipulator with a parallel jaw gripper in obstacle environment. We consider collision avoidance as a problem of motion planning in obstacle environments. In general, however, a redundant degree of freedom (DOF) is required to avoid obstacle and to grasp. In our proposal, we pay attention to redundant DOF in a grasping pose. Using redundant DOF in a grasping pose, a manipulator can avoid obstacles and grasp a target object. It does not require any redundant manipulators.

Abstract To solve the obstacle avoidance problem of the degenerated six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) space manipulator system, this paper proposes an obstacle avoidance scheme for space manipulators based on adjusting spacecraft attitude at minimum angles. During the motion of the space manipulator, if a potential collision of obstacles is detected, the attitude angles of the spacecraft are cooperatively adjusted at minimum angles to bypass the obstacle, and the end-effector of the manipulator can continue to move along the predetermined trajectory. In this way, the floating attribute of the spac

On the orthodox view, action is the joint product of belief and desire.

Should we not, then, expect there to be mechanisms of adaptive learning in desire? A chief obstacle to this line of thought has been the idea that desire is an affective-conative state, incapable of truth or falsity. However, degrees of belief likewise are not true or false, and yet we can learn by revising degrees of belief

Abstract Obstacle avoidance allows manipulators to work in cluttered environments without damaging themselves or their environment. It generally involves collision prevention and configuration optimization to avoid obstacles, with collision prevention being the only choice for non-redundant manipulators. In the case of redundant manipulators, one obstacle avoidance scheme uses null-space options for a given end-effector location, and subsequent ranking of these options to select the ‘best’ one based on input criteria. Under this scheme, four obstacle avoidance criteria have been developed. The

We also provide a fast and easy-to-implement algorithm for online controller construction. Last, the proposed approach is applied to a three-degree-of-freedom helicopter.

Abstract:

Although the Caribbean region relies heavily on its natural assets as sources of income, generally for tourism and in particular cases from agriculture and energy, environmental taxes in the region have been little studied. This paper therefore is intended to reflect the existing economic instruments in place for capturing the use (and abuse) of the regions environmental and natural resource assets to reflect the degree to which adopted actions have been effective. Data paucity has been highlighted as a major obstacle in permitting rigorous assessment; the report therefore draws on the availab

Abstract:

This paper shows that, in spite of recent progress in the usage of alternative financial services by adult populations, Latin America's financial inclusion gaps relative to either high-income countries or the region's comparators (countries with a similar degree of development) have not reduced generally and, in some cases, have even increased during the period 2011-2014. An econometric investigation of potential country-level obstacles explaining these gaps finds that institutional weaknesses play the most salient role through direct and indirect effects. Lack of enforcement of the rule of la

Abstract:

This one year exploratory project investigated hydraulic architecture of apple dwarfing rootstocks. The hypothesis was that hydraulic conductance is correlated with rootstock vigor. A previous study of trees on three rootstocks in Israel showed that dwarfed trees used less water than un-dwarfed trees. Analysis showed that if the tree maintains leaf water potentials above minimum values, then this implies that the dwarfed trees have lower leaf conductance, which may also be the cause of dwarfing. The current project studied small 2-year old unworked rootstock trees, and full sized trees bearing

Abstract:

This study investigates the degree to which underrepresented construction contractors face challenges in California's zero-emission transportation sector to devise a simpler and more efficient bonding structure. Using a survey dispersed over underrepresented businesses across the state, the study provides several suggestions for a statewide bonding program that caters to the needs of contractors. Both qualitative and quantitative methods are used in the study. The survey data are evaluated using econometric tools to analyze whether there are any statistically significant associations between c

Abstract:

This report (RE-281) presents OVE's evaluation of the Bank's Basic Education Strategy. The document is organized as follows: Chapter I is an introduction, Chapter II presents an overview of the evolution of LAC's basic education outcomes during the '90s and outlines some of the main obstacles to progress. Chapter III evaluates the strategy documents (explicit strategy) as a response to the sector problematique. Chapter IV evaluates the explicit strategy in terms of the degree to which it was implemented de facto, the extent to which the loan documents provide information to evaluate the explic
