Technical ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalysis of Magnetic Wheel Adhesion Force for Climbing RobotHaydn Welch, Shyamal MondalThis paper describes the aim of designing, building and testing magnetic wheel based an autonomous climbing robot, for use in conjunction with Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) inspection on vertical towers. Through extensive review of previous generations of climbing robot, a hybrid wheel and permanent magnetic adhesion system has been designed and discussed in this paper. Using mathematical modelling and Finite Element … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Aug 2019 · 8,283 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermining the Time Required to Detect Induced Sow Lameness Using an Embedded Microcomputer-Based Force Plate SystemBrady McNeil, Julia Calderón Díaz, Caitlyn Bruns et al.Lameness in swine breeding herds is a common cause of compromised animal well-being and economic loss to pig producers. Current lameness assessment methods are subjective and require intensive training. It has been shown that embedded microcomputer-based force plate systems can detect lameness by measuring weight distributions in livestock. The objective of this study was to determine the minimum time required … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 25 May 2018 · 7,612 accessesView PDFCite
Technical ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfluences of Tactile Sensation on Pinch Force under Loaded and Unloaded ConditionsPoh Kiat Ng, Kian Siong Jee, Adi Saptari, Chiew Yean NgAlthough researchers have studied various parameters that affect grip force, few studies investigate the effects of tactile sensation on pinch force. This study aims to determine the influences of tactile sensation on pinch force with a special emphasis on screw knobs under loaded and unloaded conditions. The participants included 32 manual workers who were required to pinch and turn the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 17 Sep 2015 · 6,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDynamic Response of Loads on Viscously Damped Axial Force Rayleigh BeamI. A. Adetunde, Baba SeiduThis research examines the effects of moving loads on viscously damped axial force Rayleigh beam. The authors especially tried to find the effect of the moving mass and moving force in connection with the length of the span of a Rayleigh beam. The authors also examined the effect of the lengths of the beam and of the load. It was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 13 Aug 2012 · 6,579 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGravitational Force of Community Events: A New Method of Evaluating Value of Local EventsNathanael L. Adams, Lynn L. AdamsProblem statement: This proposed “Gravitational Force” model was created to give communities a way to measure how effectively local events attract participants and visitors from a distance. Additionally, this study shows how to quantify the economic effect of an event on the local tax base and the entire community. This model can be used for all kinds of events and … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 7,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMolecular Dynamics Investigation of Cutting Force in Nanometric Cutting of Monocrystalline SiliconY.H. Chen, F.Z. Fang, X.D. Zhang, X.T. HuProblem statement: Ultra-precision machining of monocrystalline silicon has become tremendously important in microelectronic, micromechanical and optical element manufacturing and the mechanism of nanometric cutting monocrystalline silicon has been a focused research topic. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation is developed as an effective way for studying the material removal process at nanometric scale. Approach: Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation of nanometric cutting is … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2011 · 8,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA 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 accessEvery word in the titleEducational Attainment of Jordan's Population and Labor ForceMwafaq D. Al-KhaldiThe analysis of the educational attainment by Gender tells us about the general demand for education and qualitative change both in population and labor force. The term educational attainment used here refers to the actual level of education completed by a person as it is superior to the enrolment ratio - as a proxy for educational attainment - especially for … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 8,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAn HIV/AIDS Model with Variable Force of Infection and its Application to the Epidemic in UgandaFlugentius Baryarama, Joseph Y.T. Mugisha, Livingstone S. LuboobiAn HIV/AIDS model is formulated with variable force of infection for the adult population. Its actions are reduced to a prevalence equation that is a non-logistic equation whose explicit solution is derived. The implications of applying the solution to the evolution of the HIV/AIDS epidemic are discussed with respect to the positive boundedness of the coefficients. Prevalence projections are presented … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,964 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleForce Prediction Model for Milling 618 Stainless Steel Using Response Surface MethodologyK. Kadirgama, K A. Abou-El-HosseinThis paper describes the development of a response model (cutting force) for milling 618 stainless steel utilizing response surface methodology. The cutting force model is developed in terms of cutting speed, feed rate, axial depth and radial depth. The cutting force contours have been generated from these model equations and are shown of different plots. The model generated show that … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 6,697 accessesView PDFCite
