Active sensing of a nonholonomic wheeled mobile robot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This paper focuses on active sensing of nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots (WMRs). Active sensing solves the following problem: given a current knowledge about the robot state and the environment, how to select the next sensing action or sequence of ...

Quasi optimal sagittal gait of a biped robot with a new structure of knee joint [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The design of humanoid robots has been a tricky challenge for several years. Due to the kinematic complexity of human joints, their movements are notoriously difficult to be reproduced by a mechanism. The human knees allow movements including rolling and

JXTA-Overlay P2P Platform and Its Application for Robot Control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The design of an efficient collaborative multirobot framework that ensures the autonomy and the individual requirements of the involved robots is a very challenging task. This requires designing an efficient platform for inter-robot communication.

Towards an Architecture for Semiautonomous Robot Telecontrol Systems. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The design and development of a computational system to support robot–operator collaboration is a challenging task, not only because of the overall system complexity, but furthermore because of the involvement of different technical and scientific ...

Robot Navigation in Dense Crowds: Statistical Models and Experimental Studies of Human Robot Cooperation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This thesis explores the problem of mobile robot navigation in dense human crowds. We begin by considering a fundamental impediment to classical motion planning algorithms called the freezing robot problem: once the environment surpasses a certain level

Influence of Drain and Operational Parameters on Backwash Cleaning Efficiency in a Commercial Sand Filter Model

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Some studies have demonstrated the influence of the drainage system design on the hydraulic behaviour and on the expansion of the filter bed during the backwashing process, with a presumed effect on removal efficiency. The objective was to evaluate the influence of the drainage system design of a commercial sand filter model, the operating ...

Bio‐active designed peptide for hair keratin strengthening

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Bioactive tripeptides through in silico screening revealed KCV (Tripeptide‐132) as the most promising keratin‐targeting candidate. Experimental studies confirmed its superior hair‐strengthening performance with 44% tensile strength enhancement, 50% breakage reduction, improved surface integrity and fibre penetration.

Master assisted cooperative control of human and robot [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
A cooperative control approach between human and robot takes an important role to carry out various tasks in hazardous environments or space. In this case, a robot is operated based on the cooperation between direct human control and autonomous robot ...

Effects of repeated exposure to ozonated water on hair fibre structure and integrity: Part I

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Repeated exposure to ozonated water caused cumulative oxidative changes in hair, altering structural integrity, thermal behaviour and mechanical properties. The findings reveal a distinct ozone‐induced damage profile that progresses beyond the cuticle, challenging claims of hair‐revitalizing benefits. Abstract Objective Ozone has recently been marketed
