It is of no doubt that social media sites have become the most dominated subject in today life. However, the effect of those websites has widely disseminated not only into social life but into the business world as well. Recruitment is one of the topics that have influence by social networking sites. Previous studies have shown growing use of social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter an...

We examined planning and execution of precision grasp in eight right-handed patients with a right pure motor or sensorimotor lacunar syndrome after a subcortical stroke and eight age-matched controls as they grasped and lifted an instrumented object whose weight could be varied without altering its visual appearance. Grip (normal) and load (tangential) forces at the fingertip-object interface w...

This paper presents a general methodology for the offline planning of trajectory of a six axis serial robot along a specified path. The objective of trajectory planning is to minimise a cost function when subjected to joint angles, joint velocities, acceleration, jerks, torques and gripping force constraints by considering dynamic of the robot. A trigonometric spline is used to represent the tr...

The paper focuses on the establishment of optimized bucket path planning using numerical solution method, for a force-reflecting backhoe which is affected by excavation environment including potential obstacles. The developed path planning method can be used for precise bucket control and more importantly for obstacle avoidance which is directly related to safety issues. An optimal path plannin...

The motions of planar tracked vehicles are govemed by three force and moment equations, but driven by only two independent control variables. The force equation perpendicular to the tracks represents a d y n a m i c nonholonomic constraint which is explicitly dependent on vehicle speed. It couples path planning with trajectory planning, that is, solving for vehicle kinematic motions requires sp...

Planning collisionless paths for autonomous vehicles is a basic task of autonomous robotics. A large body of work has addressed this issue by starting out from symbolic representations of the environment, in which obstacles and targets are represented metrically. In practice, these representations are difficult to obtain, however. This paper shows that the dynamic approach to path planning (Sch...
