In the title compound, C(15)H(10)BrClO(2)S, the 4-bromo-phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 86.85 (6)° with the mean plane [mean deviation = 0.009 (2) Å] of the benzofuran fragment. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by slipped π-π inter-actions between the benzene and the furan rings of adjacent mol-ecules [centroid-centroid distance = 3.884 (2), inter-planar distance = 3.369 (2) and slip...

Despite recent advances in modern surgical robotic systems, an ongoing challenge remains their limited ability to control grasp force. This can impair performance as a result of either tissue slippage or trauma from excessive In this work we investigate force strategy address based on the detection incipient slip. Our approach employs grasper face whose shape is engineered encourage preferentia...

Rough terrain control optimization for space rovers has become a popular and challenging research field. Improvements can be achieved concerning power consumption, reducing the risk of wheels digging in and increasing ability of overcoming obstacles. In this paper, we propose a terrain profiling and wheel speed adjustment approach based on terrain shape estimation. This terrain estimation is pe...

This study analysed the impact of turning rate, centre mass height, and road adhesion coefficient on rollover stability heavy-duty automated guided vehicles (AGVs) using a multi-body dynamics simulation model. The lateral deflection angle was used as metric to evaluate behaviour AGVs, results were obtained quantitatively. findings showed that rate had largest AGV stability, followed by while le...

Haptic feedback is a crucial sensorial modality in virtual reality interactions. Haptics means both force feedback (simulating object hardness, weight, and inertia) and tactile feedback (simulating surface contact geometry, smoothness, slippage, and temperature). Providing such sensorial data requires desk-top or portable special-purpose hardware called haptic interfaces. Modeling physical inte...
