mechanical weeding is one of the non-chemical methods to control weeds. in this paper a ‎new mechanism has been presented for mechanical cultivation. the machine works based on ‎the manual tools operation, which farmers still use in small scale for weeding and consists of a ‎number of four-bar linkage mechanisms. each mechanism consists of a blade which moves ‎forward (active course) and backwa...

the need for simulation of human foot mechanism has made researchers and engineers move towards different patterns to describe this movement. in this regard, optimal solutions such as energy consumption, accuracy, etc. are of utmost importance. in this paper, efforts have been made to present a new solution by designing a fully two-dimensional six-bar mechanism with one degree of freedom so tha...

disk plows are one of the most important tillage tools. two way (reversible) disk plows can perform continues plowing. so they can save time and costs and hence improve overall efficiency. in this study, a “two-way” disk plow was designed based on a λ-formed straight-line, four-bar linkage (daniel mechanism). this design contains disk and rear wheel reversing mechanism, stabilization mechanism ...

implant-supported craniofacial prostheses are made to restore defective areas in the face and cranium. this clinical report describes a technique for fabrication of an orbital prosthesis with three adjacent implants in the left lateral orbital rim of a 60-year-old woman. selection of appropriate attachment system (individual magnetic abutments versus bar-clip attachment) for implant-supported o...

Cellular DNA/RNA tags (barcodes) allow for multiplexed cell lineage tracing and neuronal projection mapping with cellular resolution. Conventional approaches to reading out cellular barcodes trade off spatial resolution with throughput. Bulk sequencing achieves high throughput but sacrifices spatial resolution, whereas manual cell picking has low throughput. In situ sequencing could potentially...

Four-bar mechanisms are widely used in the industry especially in rotary engines. These mechanisms are usually applied for attaining a special motion duty like path generation; their high speeds in the industry cause an unbalancing problem. Hence, dynamic balancing is essential for their greater efficiency. In this research study, a multi-objective differential evolution algorithm is used for P...
