A Method for the Complete Set of Solutions of the Finite-Position Synthesis Problem
(Springer, 2022)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe equations that appear in the formulation of finite-position synthesis problems tend to increase their complexity and become quite large when solving for multiple-joint systems. In this work, we create a new set of ... -
A novel method for integrated multicriteria decision-making with uncertainty: A case study on sustainable agriculture in Colombia
(IntechOpen, 2022-09-08)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyMulticriteria decision-making usually requires a set of experts to evaluate the importance of selected criteria and the adequacy of feasible alternatives according to the criteria. Uncertainty can arise in these evaluations, ... -
On the use of mesh-based joint contact models within simulations using automatic differentiation
(2022-07-30)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyBiomechanical simulations integrating computations of joint contact pressures within optimizations typically use mesh-based contact models.However, these models are usually not continuous, which could make convergence ... -
Prevention of Failures in the Footwear Production Process by Applying Machine Learning
(Springer, 2021-09-18)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyAt present, the handcrafted footwear sector is affected by the high competitiveness due to the increasing automation of companies. In this sense, in order to improve its competitiveness, a system was proposed to predict ... -
Quaternions and Clifford Algebras
(Springer, 2021)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyQuaternions are a type of hypercomplex numbers. Unit quaternions, which describe rotations, were called versors by Hamilton. The concept of versor can be generalized as the product of invertible vectors in the Clifford ... -
Evolution of Additive Manufacturing Processes: From the Background to Hybrid Printers
(Springer, 2021-12-02)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe Additive Manufacturing (AM) field is revolutionizing the industrial sector in different areas such as automotive, aeronautics, medicine, etc. Many patents aboutAMprocesseswere granted at the end of the XXth century. ... -
Exoskeleton Design Using Subject-Specific Synergy-Driven Neuromusculoskeletal Models
(Springer Nature, 2022-01-01)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyMost assistive devices available today are unable to improve gait asymmetries due to the lack of knowledge on how to directly enforce kinematic symmetry in the formulation of cost functions. We designed a cost function to ... -
Virtual human hand: wrist movements
(Springer, 2021-06-27)
Part of book or chapter of book
Open AccessHand model with 25 Degrees of Freedom (DOF) was developed and implemented considering forward and inverse kinematics. However, the model, after some experience and use need to add new DOF. The proposed model is with 29 ... -
A model for predicting the specific energy consumption of HSM of AISI 316L using ANN
(2021-02-09)
Part of book or chapter of book
Open AccessThis work presents a model for predicting the specific energy consumption (SEC) of HSM of AISI 316L, using an ANN (Artificial Neural Network). The characteristics of material-cutting power and influence of the cutting ... -
Decision support models for the selection of production strategies in the paradigm of digital manufacturing, based on technologies, costs and productivity levels
(IntechOpen, 2019-09-12)
Part of book or chapter of book
Open AccessDigital manufacturing has opened a new window in the way to approach the manufacture of parts. The possible switch from manufacturing and holding physical stock to manoeuvring with a fully-digital one is promising but still ... -

(Springer, 2019-10-09)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyParkinson’s disease (PD) and Essential Tremor (ET) are the most common tremor syndromes in the world. Currently, a specific Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (123I-FP-CIT SPECT) has proven to be an effective tool ... -
Virtual human hand: grasps and fingertip deformation
(Springer, 2019-07-24)
Part of book or chapter of book
Open AccessThe objective of this paper is to simulate the human hand when grasping an object, considering the angles of the finger joints and the fingertip deformation. To study the grasp of an object used in activities of daily life ...
