    Studies Conducted at Shanghai Jiao Tong University on Robotics Recently Reported (Kinematic Performance-oriented Tool Orientation Optimization for a Hybrid Mach ining Robot In Five-axis Ballend Milling)

    29-30页
    查看更多>>摘要:Fresh data on Robotics are presented i n a new report. According to news originating from Shanghai, People's Republic o f China, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Five-axis hybrid robots are more extensively used in the machining of complex parts, owing to their high dy namic performance and flexible attitude adjustment. Ball-end milling is widely e mployed in sculptured surface machining." Financial support for this research came from National Natural Science Foundatio n of China (NSFC). Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, "The tool orientation can be adjusted for enhanced machining efficie ncy and superior cutting performance. However, hybrid robots' complex kinematic structures raise challenges to tool orientation planning. To generate a smooth t oolpath that has good cutting performance and satisfies all the geometric and me chanical constraints, a tool orientation optimization model is presented. The we ighted sum of the joint kinematic performance index and the effective tool diame ter indexes are taken as the objective function. By constructing the robot works pace in advance, the computation in the generation of feasible tool orientation regions is reduced. The feasible orientation regions are further simplified as l inear inequality constraints which are updated during iteration. In each iterati on, the initial nonconvex optimization problem is locally approximated by a conv ex problem and solved by quadratic programming (QP)."

    Research Results from Iowa State University Update Understanding of Artificial I ntelligence (Self-evolving artificial intelligence framework to better decipher short-term large earthquakes)

    查看更多>>摘要:Researchers detail new data in artific ial intelligence. According to news originating from Iowa State University by Ne wsRx correspondents, research stated, "Large earthquakes (EQs) occur at surprisi ng loci and timing, and their descriptions remain a long-standing enigma." Financial supporters for this research include National Science Foundation. Our news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Iowa State Unive rsity: "Finding answers by traditional approaches or recently emerging machine l earning (ML)-driven approaches is formidably difficult due to data scarcity, int erwoven multiple physics, and absent first principles. This paper develops a nov el artificial intelligence (AI) framework that can transform raw observational E Q data into ML-friendly new features via basic physics and mathematics and that can self-evolve in a direction to better reproduce short-term large EQs. An adva nced reinforcement learning (RL) architecture is placed at the highest level to achieve self-evolution. It incorporates transparent ML models to reproduce magni tude and spatial location of large EQs ( $$M_ w \ge $$ 6.5) weeks before of the failure. Verifications with 40-year EQs in the western U.S. and compariso ns against a popular EQ forecasting method are promising. This work will add a n ew dimension of AI technologies to large EQ research."

It offers opportunities for the forestry sector such as predic tive analytics, automation, and precision management, which could transform trad itional forest operations into smart, effective, and sustainable practices." Financial support for this research came from Austrian Science Fund (FWF). Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the University of N atural Resources and Applied Life Science, "The paper sets forth to outline the evolution from Industry 5.0 and its promising transition into Forestry 5.0. The purpose is to elucidate the status of these developments, identify enabling tech nologies, particularly AI, and uncover the challenges hindering the efficient ad option of these techniques in forestry by presenting a framework.Recent Findings However, the gap between potential and practical implementation is primarily due to logistical, infrastructural, and environmental challenges unique to the fore stry sector. The solution lies in Human-Centered AI, which, unlike the Industry 4.0 paradigm, aims to integrate humans into the loop rather than replace them, t hereby fostering safe, secure, and trustworthy Human-AI interactions.SummaryThe paper concludes by highlighting the need for Human-Centered AI development for t he successful transition to Forestry 5.0 - where the goal is to support the huma n workers rather than substituting them. A multidisciplinary approach involving technologists, ecologists, policymakers, and forestry practitioners is essential to navigate these challenges, leading to a sustainable and technologically adva nced future for the forestry sector."

    Study Findings from Oregon State University Broaden Understanding of Robotics (C omparison of Mcnp and Microshield Dose Savings Determinations for Remote Methods of Transuranic Contamination Characterization)

    36-36页
    查看更多>>摘要:Investigators publish new report on Ro botics. According to news reporting out of Corvallis, Oregon, by NewsRx editors, research stated, "The maturation of robotic and remote systems presents opportu nities to expand the use of technologies that have typically been restricted to high-dose/high-risk nuclear work for moderate- or low-risk work to further reduc e radiation exposure to workers. This study quantifies the potential dose saving s achieved through the use of robotic techniques for characterizing transuranic- contaminated waste items and compares dose estimates from a simplistic, user-fri endly deterministic radiation transport code and a more robust, complex Monte Ca rlo code." Financial support for this research came from Oregon State University. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Oregon State Univer sity, "Three scenarios of transuranic-contaminated waste items described in publ ished reports are modeled using representative source geometries in MicroShield and MCNP radiation transport codes. Estimated dose rates are determined at point s ranging from 30 cm to 300 cm from the face of the waste item to represent the increase in distance allowed by robotic or remote system implementation for char acterization activities. The dose rate savings are then converted to detriment c ost savings using a dollar-per-person-dose conversion factor to provide a financ ial context. The radiation transport simulations show no consistent bias in esti mated dose rate by varying simulation methodology or using geometrical simplific ations-in some cases, MicroShield produces higher dose rate estimates while MCNP estimates are higher in other cases. In the MCNP simulations, the volume source geometry consistently produces a higher dose rate than the slab source geometry , but the MicroShield dose rate estimates do not display the same trend."
