A complete six–degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) force / torque sensor has been designed and fabricated for wrist rehabilitation applications, with the focus laid on simple, straightforward manufacturing processes. This paper details the mechanical design, 3D-mode ...
Nowadays many consumer electronic devices are using small engines (micromotors). Thanks to technological innovation, the components can be imbedded into numerous portable systems. The key factors for a nomadic integration are: reduction of power consumptio ...
A complete six degree of freedom (6 DOF) force/torque sensor has been designed and fabricated, adapted to wrist rehabilitation applications, with the focus laid on simple, straightforward manufacturing processes. This paper details the mechanical design, 3 ...
This paper addresses the fundamental problem of computing stable medial representations of 3D shapes. We propose a spatially adaptive classification of geometric features that yields a robust algorithm for generating medial representations at different lev ...
The machine tool industry is a well established, old and extremely important branch of today's manufacturing industry. With the ongoing globalization and the resulting increase of competition in this industry, the manufacturers have to push their technolog ...
We introduce a computational framework for discovering regular or repeated geometric structures in 3D shapes. We describe and classify possible regular structures and present an effective algorithm for detecting such repeated geometric patterns in point- o ...
Recovering the 3D shape of a nonrigid surface from a single viewpoint is known to be both ambiguous and challenging. Resolving the ambiguities typically requires prior knowledge about the most likely deformations that the surface may undergo. It often take ...
Linkage between the urbanisation process, urban models, social practices, mutations of the public space, and management and planning approaches of cities in the South was studied. Critical understanding of traditional urban instruments and ways to create i ...
This paper investigates the linkages and influences between the open innovation paradigm and e-government research. To this end, an analysis of the e-government literature is carried out to understand how open innovation has been interpreted by e-governmen ...
Through an analysis of 497 foreign researchers in Italy and Portugal we verify the impact of home linkages on return mobility choices and scientific productivity. We consider the presence of several different types of linkages of the researchers working ab ...
