Abstract. Dealing with robot calibration the neglection of joint and drive flexibilities limit the achievable positioning accuracy significantly. This problem is addressed in this paper. A two stage procedure is presented where elastic deflections are considered for the calculation of the geometric parameters. In the first stage, the unknown stiffness and damping parameters are identified. To t...

This novel directions talk deals with the concept of misalignment, with special attention on enterprise architecture (EA)-based analytical potential. In the following study, the problem of business-IT alignment will be translated into the aspects and concepts of enterprise architecture. The main purpose of the proposed research is to analyse strategic misalignment between the business dimension...

Sensory-motor delays vary over the course of development and under different environmental conditions. Previous research has shown that humans can compensate for the resulting temporal misalignment while performing sensory-motor tasks (e.g., Cunningham, Billock, & Tsou, 2001a), but remains silent on the question of whether perceptual learning-similar to that involved in adaptation to spatial mi...

Numerical methods have gained momentum among specific engineering problems that must be solved in such a manner accuracy and speed are the two most important aspects to consider regarding output. This paper presents fast, semi-analytical method (SAM) original mathematical algorithms determine pressure distribution von Mises stress for spur gears’ meshing teeth. The SAM begins with Hartnett appr...

For 300 years, the models and metaphors of Newtonian physics have dominated the world of science. Newton offered an image of the universe as a machine, a clockwork mechanism. Newton's universe is ruled by linear cause and effect--one gear turns, which makes a second gear turn, which makes a third gear turn, and so on. This cause-effect relationship is captured in Newton's F=ma formula: force gi...

A vehicular driveline is the system used to transfer engine torque to the wheels. Resonances in the elastic parts of the driveline are important to handle when control of the engine and the transmission is optimized. Gear shifting by engine control is a new approach for automatic gear shifting with disengaging the clutch replaced by engine control. Resonances are excited in an uncontrolled driv...

In order to study the dynamic meshing characteristics of the elliptic cylinder gear and obtain the meshing error of the gear transmission system, the two-dimensional static contact analysis of the gear tooth surface is carried out by using ANSYS software, and the key parts of the contact area of the tooth surface are determined. Then, the dynamic meshing model of the elliptic cylinder gear is e...

| Gear theory is reexamined and we nd optimal shapes for gears. As optimality criteria, we allow: (1) minimal frictional losses (highest eeciency) assuming linear law of friction or (2) uniform maximum stress (it will wear out slowly and last the longest) assuming Hertzian contacts or (3) uniform maximal temperature, assuming we are in a high power limit in which all heat is removed by the lubr...

Spin–orbit misalignment in coalescing compact binaries affects their gravitational radiation waveforms. When the misalignment angles are large (∼> 30 ◦), the detection efficiency of the coalescence events can decrease significantly if the misalignment effects are not modeled. In this paper, we consider the formation of close compact binaries and calculate the expected misalignment angles after ...

This paper presents the dosimetry of a wireless power transfer (WPT) system using magnetically coupled high-resonance phenomenon under the misalignment condition. The power transfer efficiency is investigated in the misalignment between the transmitter and receiver, as well as in the alignment. Additionally, the power transfer efficiency at various misaligned distances is also investigated unde...
