Design and Sensitivity Analysis Simulation of a Novel 3D Force Sensor Based on a Parallel Mechanism

open access: yesSensors, 2016
Automated force measurement is one of the most important technologies in realizing intelligent automation systems. However, while many methods are available for micro-force sensing, measuring large three-dimensional (3D) forces and loads remains a ...

Quantifying Molecular Forces with Serially Connected Force Sensors [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2018
AbstractTo understand the mechanical forces involved in cell adhesion, molecular force sensors have been developed to study tension through adhesion proteins. Recently, a class of molecular force sensors called tension gauge tether (TGT) have been developed that rely on irreversible force-dependent dissociation of DNA duplex to study cell adhesion ...

Quectonewton Local Force Sensor

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters
We report on the realization of a quantum sensor based on trapped atom interferometry in an optical lattice for the measurement of atom-surface interactions, with sub-micrometer-level control of the mean atom-surface separation distance. The force sensor reaches a short-term sensitivity of 3.4 x 10 --28 N at 1 s and a long-term stability of 4 qN (4 x ...

Force controlled robotic assembly without a force sensor [PDF]

open access: yes2012 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2012
The traditional way of controlling an industrial robot is to program it to follow desired trajectories. This approach is sufficient as long as the accuracy of the robot and the calibration of the workcell is good enough. In robotic assembly these conditions are usually not fulfilled, because of uncertainties, e.g., variability in involved parts and ...

Force-gradient-induced mechanical dissipation of quartz tuning fork force sensors used in atomic force microscopy

open access: yes, 2011
We have studied the dynamics of quartz tuning fork resonators used in atomic force microscopy taking into account mechanical energy dissipation through the attachment of the tuning fork base.

KWISP: an ultra-sensitive force sensor for the Dark Energy sector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
An ultra-sensitive opto-mechanical force sensor has been built and tested in the optics laboratory at INFN Trieste. Its application to experiments in the Dark Energy sector, such as those for Chameleon-type WISPs, is particularly attractive, as it ...
