Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamics at Classical DistributionRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuClassical distribution is the most used in rigid memory mechanisms adapted to four-stroke internal combustion engines such as Otto or diesel, as it was designed by Otto more than 150 years ago, without essential changes from its conception and up today. Since it was not yet possible to introduce the electric car to the industrial scale and today we have … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2019 · 6,394 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSomething about Robots TodayNicolae Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuToday, robots are increasingly present in the machine building industry, sometimes even in some sections to replace workers altogether, due to the high quality of their work, repetitive, without stopping or pausing, without any manufacturing and assembly scuffs. Additionally, robots do not get sick, do not require medical leave or rest, work faster and better than humans and also support … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 19 Jun 2018 · 13,425 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPresentation of a Mechanism with a Maltese Cross (Geneva Driver)Florian Ion Tiberiu Petrescu, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Antonio ApicellaThe paper presents briefly a mechanism with a cross of Malta. The mechanisms with a Maltese cross (Geneva driver) are present in automation, robotics, mechanical transmissions, continuous variable transmissions, old clocks, especially when it comes to transmitting forces and high moments, being used instead of or with the gears. The geometry of the mechanism consisting of two elements, the kinematics … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 May 2018 · 8,549 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPresentation of the Mechanism in the CrossFlorian Ion Tiberiu Petrescu, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Antonio ApicellaThe cross-machine has frequent uses in mechanical assemblies, automation, robotics and mechanisms with various uses. In the present paper we want to present this type of mechanism with its main, geometric, cinematic, strengths and propose its study in its possible use as an internal combustion engine. In this novelty, the mechanism will have two types of operation, one when operated … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 May 2018 · 8,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeometry and Determining the Positions of a Plan Transporter ManipulatorRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella et al.The conveyor mechanism (working in a plan) to be presented in this study is a classic case of manipulating conveyor, simply with a single degree of mobility. It is a very common mechanism used in classical mechanics, being encountered at lifting platforms, at handicapped chairs, at cranes, forklifts, automatic machines and machines, or at older steam locomotives where it having … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 1 Jan 2018 · 6,551 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTime-Delay Estimation using the Characteristic Roots of Delay Differential EquationsSun Yi, Wonchang Choi, Taher Abu-LebdehProblem statement: For ordinary dynamic systems (i.e., non-delayed), various methods such as linear least-squares, gradient-weighted least-squares, Kalman filtering and other robust techniques have been widely used in signal processing, robotics, civil engineering. On the other hand, time-delay estimation of systems with unknown time-delay is still a challenging problem due to difficulty in formulation caused. Approach: The presented method makes use … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 7 Apr 2012 · 8,082 accessesView PDFCite
