Abstract Coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) play an important role in modern manufacturing and inspection technologies. However, the process of a CMM is recognized as time-consuming work. The low efficiency coordinate has given rise to new strategies methods, including path optimization. This study describes optimization on free-form surfaces using three different algorithms: ant colony algor...

When designing micro-scale tactile probes, a design trade-off must be made between the stiffness and flexibility of the probing element. The probe must be flexible enough to ensure sensitive parts are not damaged during contact, but it must be stiff enough to overcome attractive surface forces, ensure it is not excessively fragile, easily damaged or sensitive to inertial loads. To address the n...

The ideal mathematical modle and error model of a 6-DOF portable flexible coordinate measuring machine (CMM) was established. A parameter data acquisition system for the portable flexible CMM was designed in this paper, which consisted angle sensors, temperature sensors, strain transducers and microcontroller, they were set in each joint and arm. The microcontroller was used to deal with the se...

Preventive conservation of cultural heritage can avoid or minimize future damage, deterioration, loss and consequently, any invasive intervention. Recently, Machine Learning methods were proposed to support preventive maintenance plans, based on their ability predict the state built by collected data. Several data sources used, such as structural images depicting evolution deterioration state, ...

Abstract Significant improvements have been made to measurement systems meet changing market requirements. Such a rapid change and development of measuring technology is primarily due the requirements for accuracy in aerospace other manufacturing industries. Coordinate-measuring machines (CMM) gave new impetus field geometric dimensional metrology. CMM industrial environment has become an impor...

Scientific research has played an important role in the conservation and management of high seas fisheries resources since adoption entry into force 1982 United Nations Convention on Law Sea (UNCLOS). In addition, regional organizations (RFMOs) have become most platform addressing fisheries-related issues under contemporary international legal regime, which also includes responsibility to ensur...

Utilising the digital capital of buildings, including building information modelling (BIM), is crucial for owners from perspective high-level maintenance. This case study concerns a company in which models are received as files complying with Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) standard. An analysis content IFC was performed to investigate whether files, were generated construction project using ...
