A robot for non-destructive testing weld inspection of offshore mooring chains
(SAGE Publications Inc., 2018-05-09)
Welding flaw detection is a key step in manufacturing many components. In offshore chains, every link is manufactured from a steel bar that is bent and the ends joined by flash butt welding. Ultrasonic inspection of the ...
Structural Synthesis of 3-DoF Spatial Fully Parallel Manipulators
(Intech Europe, 2014-07-16)
In this paper, the architectures of three degrees of freedom (3-DoF) spatial, fully parallel manipulators (PMs), whose limbs are structurally identical, are obtained systematically. To do this, the methodology followed ...
Insights into mechanism kinematics for protein motion simulation
(Biomed Central, 2014-06-12)
Background: The high demanding computational requirements necessary to carry out protein motion simulations make it difficult to obtain information related to protein motion. On the one hand, molecular dynamics simulation ...
Multioperation capacity of parallel manipulators basing on generic kinematic chain approach
(Elsevier, 2017-06-07)
The idea of designing multioperation mechanisms capable of performing different tasks has gained prominence in the last years. These mechanisms, commonly called reconfig- urable mechanisms, have the ability to change their ...
