Crawler Mechanism with Circular Section to Realize a Sideling Motion
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a novel crawler mechanism for a sideling motion is presented. The crawler mechanism has a circular section and has active rolling axes at the center of the circles. Conventional crawler mechanism can convey heavy weigh, however they can not move to side. And previous crawler unit sinks into the soft ground when it whole body is inclined during moving. The proposed design solves this drawback by means of a circular section. An actual prototype model has been developed to illustrate the concept and to perform preliminary motion experiments, through which the basic performance of the Crawler Vehicle with this proposed Omni-Crawler mechanism was confirmed. An prototype has been developed to illustrate the concept. Motion experiments, with a test vehicle are also presented.

PULSATILE MOTION OF BLOOD IN A CIRCULAR TUBE OF VARYING CROSS-SECTION WITH SLIP FLOW
Pulsatile motion of blood in a circular tube of varying cross-section has been developed by considering slip flow at the tube wall and the blood to be a non- Newtonian biviscous incompressible fluid. The tube wall is supposed to be permeable and the fluid exchange across the wall is accounted for by prescribing the normal velocity of the fluid at the tube wall. The tangential velocity of the fl...
متن کاملComparison of Heat Transfer Power of the Cooling Panel with Square Cross Section and Circular Cross Section in Electric Arc Furnaces Steelmaking by the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics
Steel pipes with circular cross-sections are usually used in cooling panels of electric arc furnaces. In the present study pipes with square cross-sections under equivalent conditions were used to obtain more information on the possibility of increasing the heat transfer and cooling efficiency. The results showed increased efficiency of the square pipe compared to the circular cross-section pip...
متن کاملDerivation of Equation of Motion for the Pillow-Shape Seismic Base Isolation System
Rolling-based seismic isolation systems, in which rollers of circular or non-circular section are used, are less expensive and easier to manufacture. However, this type of isolation suffers from either lack of restoring or re-centering capability, or weakness against uplift forces. To resolve the first shortcoming the use of elliptical as well as pillow-shape rolling parts has been suggested, a...

Abstract : This paper presents a omni-directional mobile robot which can run on off-road and run over a obstacle. The robot equipped with crawler-roller running system. The motion analysis is also discussed to realize the autonomic off-road running. In order to automatically control the robot to run in optional direction and an orbit. We have to decide the inputting volts of the motors accordin...
متن کاملCircular RNA: features, functions and their correlation with diseases especially cancer
In early 2012, the world of science saw a fascinating discovery called circular RNA as a transcription product of thousands of genes in mice and humans. These circular RNAs have recently been grouped as the encoding RNA in an independent group that their remarkable difference with other RNAs is that these RNAs are not linear, in which two ends connect with a covalent connection creating a loop-...
