Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffect of Object Size and Location on Contact Forces and Grasping Stability for an Underactuated Robotic ManipulatorSomer Matti Nacy, Ahmed Abdulsalam NayifThis paper comprises a study of the grasping stability for an underactuated robotic manipulator under the condition of varying the position of different sizes cylindrical grasped objects. Grasping forces were calculated both theoretically and Via a CAD model for a 3-DOF underactuated robotic manipulator. The experimental part comprises the fabrication of the manipulator and performing the required tests on this … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 24 May 2018 · 7,038 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Novel Tactile Force Probe for Tissue Stiffness ClassificationBehafarid Darvish, Siamak Najarian, Elham Shirzad, Roozbeh KhodambashiIn this study, we have proposed a new type of tactile sensor that is capable of detecting the stiffness of soft objects. The sensor consists of a brass cylinder with an axial bore. An iron core can easily move inside the bore. Three peripheral bobbins were machined in the cylinder around which three coils have been wound. One of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFabrication of a Capacitance-Based Tactile Sensor with Biomedical ApplicationsAli Tavakoli Golpaygani, Siamak Najarian, M. Mehdi Movahedi, Goldis Darb EmamiehThe design, modeling, and testing of a flexible tactile sensor and its applications are presented. This sensor is made of polymer materials and can detect the 2D surface texture image and contact-force estimation. The sensing mechanism is based on the novel contact deflection effect of a membrane. We measure the amount of membrane deflection with measuring the change of capacitance … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,388 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExperimental and Theoretical Analysis of a Novel Flexible Membrane Tactile SensorGoldis Darb Emamieh, Ahmad Ameri, Siamak Najarian, Ali Tavakoli GolpayganiIn this study, we report the development of a new multi tactile sensor, capable of detecting 2D surface texture image, measuring contact-force, and identifying the difference between stiffness of sensed objects. The designed tactile sensor consists of a chamber and a membrane with a mesa structure. The detecting principle is a combination of membrane deflection and piezoresistance effects. A major … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,184 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign and Modeling of a New Tactile Sensor Based on Membrane DeflectionAli Tavakoli Golpaygani, Siamak Najarian, Goldis Darb EmamiehThe designed sensor can detect 2D surface texture image, contact-force, and softness of the sensed object. It consists of a chamber for pneumatic actuation and a membrane with a mesa structure. The sensing mechanism is the contact deformation effect of a membrane. Determination of the contact force and softness of sensed object is based on the amount and variations of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 6,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Trilobatin on Bovine Serum Albumin: Interaction Mechanism and Molecular DockingYuhan Zhai, Yuqing Zhang, Yaping Li et al.Understanding the transport and distribution of small molecules in vivo is aided by studying their interactions with proteins. As a natural sweetener, trilobatin possesses several biological activities. However, uncertainty surrounds the trilobatin and Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) interaction mechanism. In this study, the binding types, number of binding sites and binding constants of trilobatin interaction with BSA were studied by … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2024 · 4,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploratory Study on the Fracture Resistance of Cast GlassTelesilla Bristogianni, Faidra Oikonomopoulou, Fred Veer, Rob NijsseThe emerging interest in the architectural applications of cast glass components reveals a knowledge gap on the mechanical properties of cast glass. Apart from its chemical composition, cast glass is characterized by its manufacturing history and thermal profile, often inheriting a set of defects that define its properties. The role that inhomogeneities in the bulk of voluminous glass components have … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 4 Jun 2021 · 7,356 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgressive Damage Modelling of Transverse Impact Behavior of Adhesively Bonded Composite JointsDimitrios Athinaios, Konstantinos Tserpes, Giannis FlorosA three-dimensional dynamic numerical model was developed, using the commercially available finite element software LS-DYNA to simulate the Low Velocity Impact (LVI) case on bonded joints consisting of woven CFRP adherents. The adhesive failure simulated using the Cohesive Zone Method (CZM), while the failures in the composite material simulated using a progressive damage material model based on Hashin’s failure criteria. … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2020 · 6,424 accessesView PDFCite
