چکیده

For assembly tasks parts often have to be oriented before they can be put in an assembly. The results presented in this paper are a component of the automated design of parts orienting devices. The focus is on orienting parts with minimal sensing and manipulation. We present a new approach to parts orienting through the manipulation of pose distributions. Through dynamic simulation we can determine the pose distribution for an object being dropped from an arbitrary height on an arbitrary surface. By varying the drop height and the shape of the support surface we can find the initial conditions that will result in a pose distribution with minimal entropy. We are trying to uniquely orient a part with high probability just by varying the initial conditions. We will derive a condition on the pose and velocity of an object in contact with a sloped surface that will allow us to quickly determine the final resting configuration of the object. This condition can then be used to quickly compute the pose distribution. We also show simulation and experimental results that confirm that our dynamic simulator can be used to find the true pose distribution of an object.

Stability Assessment of the Flexible System using Redundancy

In this study, dynamic behavior of a mooring line in a floating system is analyzed by probability approaches. In dynamics, most researches have shown the system model and environments by mathematical expression. We called this process as the forward dynamics. However, there is a limit to define the exact environments because of uncertainty. To consider uncertainty, we introduce the redundancy i...

Comparative Study of Random Matrices Capability in Uncertainty Detection of Pier’s Dynamics

Because of random nature of many dependent variables in coastal engineering, treatment of effective parameters is generally associated with uncertainty. Numerical models are often used for dynamic analysis of complex structures, including mechanical systems. Furthermore, deterministic models are not sufficient for exact anticipation of structure’s dynamic response, but probabilistic models...

Toward Reduction of Uncertainty in Complex Multi-reservoir River Systems

In this paper we present a novel framework for better modeling uncertainty in complex systems and demonstrate the approach applied to regulated river systems. In this framework, only the stream inflows are assumed to be purely stochastic. Other uncertain quantities are correlated to the uncertainty of the stream inflows using the dynamics of the river as the physical description of the system. ...
