Abstract:
This research represents a method to improve the technology that enables the design andsimulation of a four-limbed climbing robot, named FLC-Robot. It is equipped with planning capabilitiesto free climb vertical terrain. It means to extend the robot's ability to a vertical direction underthe gravity force. However, we need to analyze climbing and create the theory in parallel with hardwaredevelopment. In this paper, the equilibrium allowance area of the four-limbed climbing robotis introduced and the corresponding torque is calculated. Hence, this paper starts with a rudimentaryanalysis of mec

Abstract:
Wheelchairs are an important means of transportation for the elderly and disabled. However, the movement of wheelchairs on long curbs and stairs is restricted. In this study, a wheelchair for climbing stairs was developed based on a mechanical transmission system that rotates the entire driving part through a link structure and an actuator to change the speed. The first mode drives the caterpillar, and the second mode drives the wheels. When driving on flat ground, it uses landing gears and wheels, and when climbing stairs, it uses the caterpillar; accordingly, a stable driving is possible. Th

Abstract:
Biped climbing robots (BiCRs) can overcome obstacles and perform transition easily thanks to their superior flexibility. However, to move in a complex truss environment, grips from the original point to the destination, as a sequence of anchor points along the route, are indispensable. In this paper, a grip planning method is presented for BiCRs generating optimal collision-free grip sequences, as a continuation of our previous work on global path planning. A mathematic model is firstly built up for computing the operational regions for negotiating obstacle members. Then a grip optimization mo

Abstract:
Sport-climbing popularity increased intensely over the past years. Particularly, children’s and adolescents’ interest therein is constantly growing. Despite a large effort in preventing injuries and muscle overloads, a fine-tuned training for each sensitive phase of child development is still needed. The objective of the study was to evaluate an innovative training program aimed at the preservation of joint mobility during the developmental age. This article relies on the results of a steady training program allowing to retain joints integrity among the practice of sport climbing in children.

Abstract:
Extreme sport participation has traditionally been conceptualized as a psychological disorder and something to be avoided (Cashmore, 2002). Viewed in this way, these individuals are thought to be enacting an unhealthy psychology (Ogilvie, 1997; Slanger & Rudestam, 1997). Other research has described participants in extreme sports as sensation seekers under-stimulated by their normal surroundings and out of control (Zuckerman, 1979). Using Brymer's (2005) focused definition of extreme sports, "activities where a mismanaged mistake or accident would most likely result in death, as opposed to inj

Abstract:
Abstract Many structures are difficult to paint. Transmission towers, which are a tall array of open lattice steel, are such an example. The substrate is usually galvanized steel with some surface rust. Traditionally, two coat systems, using a leaded corrosion resistant primer with a topcoat, have been used. The towers are painted by applicators climbing the tower. Scaffolding is not used. This paper will discuss a one-coat, high-build, lead-free, low VOC, self-priming coating that provides long term corrosion protection, low application costs, requires minimal surface preparation, and is easy

Abstract:
The Mars Exploration Rover Spirit will henceforth be a stationary science platform, as its current mobility capabilities have been unable to free it from a sand trap for several months. Mobility systems of future planetary exploration robots will need to reduce risk of entrapment, access more challenging terrain, and cover more ground than ever before. This work presents a novel center-of-gravity (CoG) control algorithm, designed to increase rover mobility over step obstacles. The control algorithm is applied to a mobile robot platform featuring a reconfigurable chassis / suspension system. Th
