Object manipulation techniques in robotics can be categorized in two major groups including manipulation with and without grasp. The aim of this paper is to develop an object manipulation method where in addition to being grasp-less, the manipulation task is done in a passive approach. In this method, linear and angular positions of the object are changed and its manipulation path is controlled...

Hat geometrisi muayene araçlarıyla yapılan ölçümlerden elde edilen grafiklere göre demiryolu hattı yatay ve düşey düzlemlerde düzgün olmayan dalgalı bir geometriye sahiptir. Bu geometrik yapı fraktal desen olarak göz önüne alındığında hat geometrisinin düzgünsüzlüğü boyutlar yardımı ile sayısal ifade edilebilir. çalışmada Ankara-Eskişehir Yüksek Hızlı Tren (YHT) hattının düzgünsüzlüğünü belirle...

One of the most important factors influencing the track maintenance is the transitions between parts of the track with different vertical stiffness. The dynamic...

At its building, the theoretical new railway line is supposed to be made of perfect straight lines and curves. This track geometry is however gradually damaged and regularly subjected to maintenance operations. The analysis of these track irregularities is a key issue as the dynamic behaviour of the trains is mainly induced by the track geometry. In this context, this work is devoted to the dev...
