Exact Computation of a Manifold Metric, via Lipschitz Embeddings and Shortest Paths on a Graph
Data-sensitive metrics adapt distances locally based the density of data points with the goal of aligning distances and some notion of similarity. In this paper, we give the first exact algorithm for computing a data-sensitive metric called the nearest ...

In this paper, a spatial cable-driven parallel mechanism in a V-shaped cable arrangement is proposed. It is further simplified as a planar hybrid cable-driven parallel mechanism to analyze its kinematics, which consists of two identical active cable ...

Dislocation Kinks in Copper: Widths, Barriers, Effective Masses, and Quantum Tunneling [PDF]
We calculate the widths, migration barriers, effective masses, and quantum tunneling rates of kinks and jogs in extended screw dislocations in copper, using an effective medium theory interatomic potential.

Solution of an inverse kinematics problem using dual quaternions
The paper proposes a solution to an inverse kinematics problem based on dual quaternions algebra. The method, relying on screw theory, requires less calculation effort compared with commonly used approaches.

Screw dislocation in zirconium: An ab initio study [PDF]
Plasticity in zirconium is controlled by 1/3 screw dislocations gliding in the prism planes of the hexagonal close-packed structure. This prismatic and not basal glide is observed for a given set of transition metals like zirconium and is known to be ...

Dislocation constriction and cross-slip in Al and Ag: an ab initio study
A novel model based on the Peierls framework of dislocations is developed. The new theory can deal with a dislocation spreading at more than one slip planes.

Improved screw theory using second order terms [PDF]
The local displacement of an object is very useful for deciding grasp stability, generating trajectories, recognizing assembly tasks, and so on. To calculate this displacement, the screw theory is employed. It is equivalent to the first order Taylor expansion of the displacement.

Accuracy and transferability of Gaussian approximation potential models for tungsten [PDF]
We introduce interatomic potentials for tungsten in the bcc crystal phase and its defects within the Gaussian approximation potential framework, fitted to a database of first-principles density functional theory calculations.

A geometrical introduction to screw theory [PDF]
This work introduces screw theory, a venerable but yet little known theory aimed at describing rigid body dynamics. This formulation of mechanics unifies in the concept of screw the translational and rotational degrees of freedom of the body. It captures a remarkable mathematical analogy between mechanical momenta and linear velocities, and between ...
