Abstract Accuracy requirements for machine tools demand an accurate positioning of the tool center point. Due to heat sources, example friction and loss motors, a can undergo complicated deformations during operation. While location mounted sources are known in advance, there also process dependent like hot chips after chip off. Furthermore many material parameters most coupling not exactly, or...

A method is proposed in this article to place sensors an electrical machine order be able reconstruct the magnetic field distribution. This based on empirical interpolation combined with Maxvol technique. The results applied a surface-mounted permanent magnet at no load show that distribution can accurately reconstructed even when sensor location imposed airgap of rotating machine.

Understanding forest functioning is limited by the scalability of monitoring solutions and difficulty access. Manual sensor placement can reach most locations but lacks scalability. Micro-aerial vehicles (MAVs) allow for scalable delivery, current are to attaching sensors trunk or large branches with spines adhesives. The thinner outer canopy remain inaccessible, despite being particular intere...
