Common manipulator-assisted materials handling tasks were performed in a laboratory simulation at self-selected and faster (paced) speeds. The effects of pacing on peak hand forces, torso kinematics, spine moments and forces, and muscle antagonism were determined, along with any influences of several task variables on these effects. The faster trials were performed 20% more rapidly than the sel...

Materials used within a program designed to control static electricity have not changed very much in fundamental properties in the past 10 years. Standards have evolved over the past decade to assist in the development of a conscientious static control program. Properties for non-ESD related physical characteristics have changed substantially in the same time period based on industry demands. T...

Mastering Material Handling Systems is a crucial issue for numerous companies since the costs of material handling activities are far from being negligible. The demand sustainable industry and introduction Industry 4.0 technologies renewing System design concerns. Many questions arise on whether it suitable or not to bring such as Autonomous Mobile Robots Real-Time Location shop floors. In pres...

One of the most important problems in production planning of flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is machine tool selection and operation allocation problem that directly influences the production costs and times .In this paper minimizing machining cost, set-up cost and material handling cost as a multi-objective problem in flexible manufacturing systems environment are considered. We present a ...

Proper selection of material in manufacturing firms is a vital role of designer depending upon the different era of application. The material selection problem is very complex and challenging task today. Erroneous cull of material frequently leads to astronomically immense cost involution, and finally drives towards unfortunate component or product breakdown. Thus, the designer necessitates dis...

The structural design and analysis of rotorcrafts is a complicated process in terms of material selection and inertial forces acting on it. This article presents the structural design of reliable highperformance rotorcraft in order to enhance the handling qualities during recovery purposes. Airframe structure of the rotorcraft is tailored based on the mission requirements. A low navigation perf...

All imaginable types of materials and techniques, from very conservative ceramic restorations to very complex restorations of either metal or high-strength crystalline ceramics veneered with porcelain, have been introduced and tried throughout the years, with varying levels of success. However, there is considerable misinformation and a general lack of published rational treatment planning guid...
