CAM-Rob postprocessor based on a fuzzified redundancy resolution scheme
(Springer-Verlag, 2012)
This work highlights the applicability of different redundancy resolution schemes to the postprocessing stage from a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) system to an industrial redundant workcell. The inverse kinematic ...
A new algorithm for finding faces in wireframes
(Elsevier, 2010)
The problem of identifying the topology implied by wireframe drawings of polyhedral objects requires the identification of face loops, loops of edges which correspond to a face in the object the drawing portrays. In this ...
Calibration and control of a redundant robotic workcell for milling tasks
(Taylor & Francis, 2011)
This article deals with the tuning of a complex robotic workcell of eight joints devoted to milling tasks. It consists of a KUKA™ manipulator mounted on a linear track and synchronised with a rotary table. Prior to any ...
A taxonomy of ecodesign tools for interesting environmental requirements into the product design process.
(© 2011 Elsevier, 2012-01)
Over the years a wide range of techniques have been developed to evaluate the environmental performance of products. However, they all consider the environmental aspect of a product in an isolated way, without taking into ...
Implementation of Hertz theory and validation of a finite element model for stress analysis of gear drives with localized bearing contact
(Elsevier, 2011)
An analytical approach for stress analysis of gear drives with localized bearing contact based on the Hertz theory is proposed. The proposed approach provides a complete and effective solution of the contact problem but ...
Numerical investigation of models for drag, lift, wall lubrication and turbulent dispersion forces for the simulation of gas-liquid two-phase flow
(Elsevier, 2015-06)
In order to qualify CFD codes for accurate numerical predictions of transient evolution of flow regimes in a vertical gas–liquid two-phase flow in a pipe, suitable closure models (inter-phase forces) for the momentum ...
Potential reuse of small household waste electrical and electronic equipment: Methodology and case study
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
This study proposes a general methodology for assessing and estimating the potential reuse of small waste electrical and electronic equipment (sWEEE), focusing on devices classified as domestic appliances. Specific tests ...
Consumer behaviour and environmental education in the field of waste electrical and electronic toys: A Spanish case study
(Elsevier, 2015-02)
This paper reports on a project focused on obtaining the current consumption and disposal habits of electrical and electronic toys from a survey aimed at parents of children of nine pre- and primary schools. In addition, ...
Eco-effiency alysis of the life cycle of interior partition walls: a comparison of alterantive solutions
(Copyright © 2015 Elsevier, 2015-08)
This paper presents an eco-efficiency analysis of the entire life cycle of 10 alternative solutions that can be used for interior partition walls that are variants on five building solutions commonly used in Spain (gypsum ...
Patient-specific simulation of the intrastromal ring segment implantation in corneas with keratoconus
(Elsevier, 2015)
Purpose
The purpose of this study was the simulation of the implantation of intrastromal corneal-ring segments for patients with keratoconus. The aim of the study was the prediction of the corneal curvature recovery ...
