An empirical study of the work conditions and productive performance after collaborative robotics implementation in a manufacturing assembly process

Industry 4.0 has led to a widespread and impactful evolution of technology that is transforming industry and organizations in general. Collaborative robotics is considered one of the new features in this movement allowing humans and robots ...

Experimental Analysis of Consolidated Material Flow througha Roller Press with a Non -Symmetrical Compaction Unit

One of the essential aspects of the operation of roller presses is the proper transfer of feed in the feeder. It hasa significant influence on the correct course of the compaction and consolidation process, the product quality, and the inte...

Toward a Framework for Levels of Robot Autonomy in Human-Robot Interaction

A critical construct related to human-robot interaction (HRI) is autonomy, which varies widely across robot platforms. Levels of robot autonomy (LORA), ranging from teleoperation to fully autonomous systems, influence the way in which human...

Robot Vision

From the Publisher: This book presents a coherent approach to the fast-moving field of computer vision, using a consistent notation based on a detailed understanding of the image formation process. It covers even the most recent research a...

Robots and Firms

Abstract We study the microeconomic implications of robot adoption using a rich panel data set of Spanish manufacturing firms over a 27-year period (1990–2016). We provide causal evidence on two central questions: (1) Which firm characteris...

Sensor Fusion and Autonomy as a Powerful Combination for Biological Assessment in the Marine Environment

The ocean environment and the physical and biological processes that govern dynamics are complex. Sampling the ocean to better understand these processes is difficult given the temporal and spatial domains and sampling tools available. Biol...

Interaction with LLM-Based Systems: A Structured Review and Taxonomy of Mechanisms and Autonomy

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly integrated into interactive systems across domains such as software development, robotics, and education. As these systems evolve from simple chat interfaces to autonomous, tool-using agents, th...

A Finite Element Model to Simulate Defect Formation during Friction Stir Welding

In this study, a 3D coupled thermo-mechanical finite element model is developed to predict and analyze the defect formation during friction stir welding based on coupled Eulerian Lagrangian method. The model is validated by comparing the es...

Industrial robots and robotics

This book discusses the study of robotics. It provides information of hardware, software, applications and economics. Eleven chapters examine the following: Minicomputers, Microcomputers, and Microprocessors; The Servo-Control System; The A...

Robotont 3–an accessible 3D-printable ROS-supported open-source mobile robot for education and research

Educational robots offer a platform for training aspiring engineers and building trust in technology that is envisioned to shape how we work and live. In education, accessibility and modularity are significant in the choice of such a techno...

Progress in Bioinspired Dry and Wet Gradient Materials from Design Principles to Engineering Applications

Summary: Nature does nothing in vain. Through millions of years of revolution, living organisms have evolved hierarchical and anisotropic structures to maximize their survival in complex and dynamic environments. Many of these structures ar...

Evolutionary Robotics

Evolutionary robotics is a new technique for the automatic creation of autonomous robots. Inspired by the Darwinian principle of selective reproduction of the fittest, it views robots as autonomous artificial organisms that develop their ow...

Application of Improved BQGA in Robot Kinematics Inverse Solution

In view of the problem that Bloch Quantum Genetic Algorithm (BQGA) is easy to fall into local optimum, an improved BQGA is proposed. The algorithm can control the step size and the mutation probability in real time in the iterative process,...

4D printing of semi-crystalline crosslinked polymer networks with two-way shape-memory effect

This paper introduces a novel approach to 4D printing tailored structures with reversible two-way shape-memory effect (SME) through material extrusion technology. To this aim, methacrylated poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) was synthesized and eva...

Monolithic UV‐Laser Programming of Photothermally Meta‐Morphing SMA Structures: Dual‐Encoded Kirigami Mechanics and Photonic Absorbance

ABSTRACT Photothermal shape memory alloys (SMAs) offer a promising pathway toward wireless soft robotic systems, yet their practical implementation remains limited by reliance on heterogeneous coatings and multistep processing to achieve su...
