background: we have validated the monitor unit calculations from a commercially available treatment planning system (tps) for three intensity modulated radiotherapy (imrt) planning techniques for tangential breast irradiation by using ionization chamber measurements. materials and methods: treatment plans were generated for forty-two breast patients by a forward planned field in field technique...

We show that if X is a locally compact, paracompact and Hausdorff space, then X can be realised as the subspace of all maximal points of the inverse limit of an inverse system of partial orders with an appropriate topology (equivalently T0-Alexandroff spaces). Then, the space X is homeomorphic to a deformation retract of that limit. Moreover, we extend results obtained by Clader and Thibault an...

Woodruff SchOOl of Mechanical Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA 30332 A manipulator system with a large workspace volume and high payload capa~ity has greater link flexibility than do typical industrial robots and teleoperators. N Imk flexibility is significant, position control of the manipulator's end-effector exhibits nonminimum-phase. noncollo...

In the field of automatic control system design, adaptive inverse is a powerful control technique. It identifies the system model and controls automatically without having prior knowledge about the dynamics of plant. In this paper neural network based adaptive inverse controller is proposed to control a MIMO system. Multi layer perception and back propagation are combinedly used in this investi...

A simulational model of 6 dof Stewart platform type parallel manipulator is presented. The manipulator is driven by electrohydraulic actuators. A novel invariant error dynamics controller is used. The developed control scheme employs the dynamic and hydraulic model of the system. The manipulator model consists of the rigid body equations of motion and the hydraulic dynamics of the main elements...

Inverse kinematics computation using an artificial neural network that learns the inverse kinematics of a robot arm has been employed by many researchers. However, the inverse kinematics system of typical robot arms with joint limits is a multi-valued and discontinuous function. Since it is difficult for a wellknown multi-layer neural network to approximate such a function, a correct inverse ki...

In this paper, we propose a new method to efficiently synthesize character motions that involve close contacts such as wearing a T-shirt, passing the arms through the strings of a knapsack, or piggy-back carrying an injured person. We introduce the concept of topology coordinates, in which the topological relationships of the segments are embedded into the attributes. As a result, the computati...
