Abstract. Cable-driven parallel robots are a type of manipulators where rigid links replaced by actuated cables. Although in many cases dynamic models that neglect the cables mass and elasticity employed to simulate robot behavior test control approach be used, there several situations which their effect cannot disregarded, especially when large span cable density generates important sagging. T...

Mobile manipulators have been given extensive attention in recent years since they have many applications such as materials transport and service for disabled persons. A mobile modular manipulator is normally composed of an m-wheeled mobile platform and an n-degree-of-freedom (DOF) onboard modular manipulator. This combination extends the workspace of the entire robot dramatically. Building up ...

The paper analyses the impact of electromagnetic field an alternating current catenary section on a fiber-optic cable suspended structures system or overhead wires Centralised Traffic Control (CTC). Based this calculation, conclusions have been made about negative electric fields with high vorticity.
