Factors Affecting Extension Ladder Angular Positioning

Kau Factors Affecting Extension Ladder Angular Positioning

Objective: The study objectives were to identify factors affecting extension ladders' angular positioning and evaluate the effectiveness of two anthropometric positioning methods. Background: A leading cause for extension ladder fall incidents is a slide-out event, usually related to suboptimal ladder inclination. An improved ladder positioning method or procedure could reduce the risk of ladde...

Mems Angular Positioning Stage with a Vernier Latch

 Latching MEMS angular positioning stages have been constructed by deep reactive ion etching and undercut of bonded silicon-on-insulator. Rotation is powered by a primary linear drive acting on a tangential drive pin attached to a passive stage. The approach is extensible to other tilt axes using inserted components. The linear stage is driven by buckling electrothermal actuators. Latching is ...
