An experimental comparison of robot kinematic calibration methods
(1992)
It has been shown that the kinematic calibration can help to improve the accuracy of the industrial robot. This research has involved using two different calibration methods, the CMM and VBAT, to calibrate PUMA 560 ...
Intelligent tutoring system design for engineering science courses
(1991)
Recent changes in computer technology have made the development of an intelligent tutoring system (ITS) a much more attractive proposition. Reviewing the current educational engineering software, two major deficiencies ...
Thermohydrodynamic analysis of product-lubricated hydrostatic bearings in turbulent regime
(1992)
A bulk-flow thermohydrodynamic (THD) analysis is developed for accurate predictions of the static and dynamic performance characteristics of turbulent flow product-lubricated hydrostatic journal bearings (HJBs). Pointwise ...
Gas turbine film cooling and heat transfer measurements using a transient liquid crystal technique
(1995)
Modern gas turbines have high inlet temperatures due to which the various components undergo severe thermal stress and fatigue. Detailed measurements of heat transfer to gas turbine components from the damaging mainstream ...
Deformation micromechanisms in polymeric matrices and carbon fibre reinforced composites
(1989)
The objective of this study is to identify the deformation micromechanisms operative in carbon fibre reinforced polymer composites and in the base polymers that act as the matrix material. The aim is to understand the ...
