© 2020 In this article, an optimization method is proposed for the dimensional synthesis of robotic manipulators with limited mobility, i.e. with less than 6 degrees-of-freedom (“DoF”), with a prescribed set of tasks in a constrained environment. Sin... Read More about Task-oriented optimal dimensional synthesis of robotic manipulators with limited mobility.

Temperature effect on the material removal mechanism of soft-brittle crystals at nano/micron scale (2020)
Journal Article
Liu, Q., Liao, Z., & Axinte, D. (2020). Temperature effect on the material removal mechanism of soft-brittle crystals at nano/micron scale. International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacture, 159(Part B), Article 103620. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijmachtools.2020.103620

© 2020 Elsevier Ltd Soft-brittle crystals, e.g. KH2PO4 (KDP), are difficult-to-cut due to their high brittleness which can easily generate crack during the machining process. The conventional method to machine this kind of material is by inducing duc... Read More about Temperature effect on the material removal mechanism of soft-brittle crystals at nano/micron scale.
