The document proposes a new method for characterizing singular configurations of the 6/6 Stewart platform (SP) using the 3D Kennedy theorem. It defines the singular configuration as when the intersection line m of two planes defined by parallel leg lines is perpendicular to the common normal of two other leg lines. This characterization is proved using reciprocal screw theory and properties of lines intersecting screws. The method is also applicable for analyzing the mobility of the SP and is shown to relate to other reported methods of singularity analysis for parallel robots.
This document presents a new combinatorial method for characterizing singular configurations in parallel mechanisms. The method uses concepts of self-stress and equimomental lines. Self-stress occurs when internal forces exist in a mechanism due to redundant constraints. Equimomental lines represent lines where applied forces have equal moments. The document applies this method to characterize singular configurations of parallel mechanisms like the 3/6 Stewart platform. Key steps involve identifying self-stresses, drawing a dual Kennedy circle to determine equimomental lines, and checking for intersections using properties of the method. The method is shown to characterize known singular configurations of the 3/6 Stewart platform.

It begins by defining an asymmetric unit and how symmetry operations are used to reconstruct the full unit cell from the asymmetric unit. It then discusses the seven crystal systems, 14 Bravais lattices, 32 point groups, and 230 space groups that describe all possible symmetries of crystal structures.

This document provides information about axis systems that are important in civil engineering. It discusses how global and local axis systems are used to analyze structural members. A major axis is defined as being parallel to the longest dimension of a member, while minor axes are perpendicular to the major axis. Cross-sections are defined as cuts perpendicular to the major axis. Forces like shear and axial forces are determined based on their direction relative to the major axis. Moment of inertia calculations depend on the axis used. Mohr's circle, which relates stresses, also relies on defining an axis system. Axis systems are thus a fundamental concept in engineering mechanics and the analysis of structures.

Comparative study of results obtained by analysis of structures using ANSYS, ...IOSR Journals
Β
The analysis of complex structures like frames, trusses and beams is carried out using the Finite
Element Method (FEM) in software products like ANSYS and STAAD. The aim of this paper is to compare the
deformation results of simple and complex structures obtained using these products. The same structures are
also analyzed by a MATLAB program to provide a common reference for comparison. STAAD is used by civil
engineers to analyze structures like beams and columns while ANSYS is generally used by mechanical engineers
for structural analysis of machines, automobile roll cage, etc. Since both products employ the same fundamental
principle of FEM, there should be no difference in their results. Results however, prove contradictory to this for
complex structures. Since FEM is an approximate method, accuracy of the solutions cannot be a basis for their
comparison and hence, none of the varying results can be termed as better or worse. Their comparison may,
however, point to conservative results, significant digits and magnitude of difference so as to enable the analyst
to select the software best suited for the particular application of his or her structure.
Fixed point theorem between cone metric space and quasi-cone metric spacenooriasukmaningtyas
Β
This study involves new notions of continuity of mapping between quasi-cone metrics spaces (QCMSs), cone metric spaces (CMSs), and vice versa. The relation between all notions of continuity were thoroughly studied and supported with the help of examples. In addition, these new continuities were compared with various types of continuities of mapping between two QCMSs. The continuity types are ππ-continuous, ππ-continuous, ππ-continuous, and ππ-continuous. The results demonstrated that the new notions of continuity could be generalized to the continuity of mapping between two QCMSs. It also showed a fixed point for this continuity map between a complete Hausdorff CMS and QCMS. Overall, this study supports recent research results.

To solve the problem of angle coupling of the welding robot kinematics equations, we build the 3D
model of the welding robot plus kinematics equations via using method of D-H, and taking PUMA560 robot as
the study target and using ADAMS software as the simulating tool, through this we achieve the displacement

This paper derives the equations that describe the interaction forcesbetween two identical cylinders
spinningaround their stationary and parallel axes in a fluid that isassumed to be in-viscous, steady, in-vortical,
and in-compressible. The paper starts by deriving the velocity field from Laplace equation,governing this
problem,and the system boundary conditions. It then determines the pressure field from the velocity field using
Bernoulli equation. Finally, the paper integrates the pressure around either cylinder-surface to find the force
acting on its axis.All equations and derivationsprovided in this paper are exact solutions. No numerical
analysesor approximations are used.The paper finds that such identical cylinders repel or attract each other in
inverse relation with separation between their axes, according to similar or opposite direction of rotation,
respectively.
1) The document derives the equations describing the interaction forces between two identical cylinders spinning around their stationary and parallel axes in an ideal fluid.
2) It is found that the fluid velocity field can be determined by solving the Laplace equation, and that the pressure field can then be obtained from the velocity field using Bernoulli's equation.
3) By integrating the pressure around the surface of each cylinder, it is shown that the cylinders will repel or attract each other in inverse relation to their separation distance, depending on whether their directions of rotation are the same or opposite.
1) The document derives the equations describing the interaction forces between two identical cylinders spinning around their stationary and parallel axes in an ideal fluid.
2) It finds the velocity field satisfies the boundary conditions of the fluid velocity matching the cylinders' rotation at the surface and being zero at infinity.
3) It then determines the pressure field from the velocity field using Bernoulli's equation and integrates the pressure around the cylinders' surfaces to obtain the forces acting on their axes.
In this paper we consider the initial-boundary value problem for a nonlinear equation induced with respect to the mathematical models in mass production process with the one sided spring boundary condition by boundary feedback control. We establish the asymptotic behavior of solutions to this problem in time, and give an example and simulation to illustrate our results. Results of this paper are able to apply industrial parts such as a typical model widely used to represent threads, wires, magnetic tapes, belts, band saws, and so on.
This document describes a new decomposition method called the Andualem-Khan Decomposition Method (AKDM) for solving nonlinear differential equations. The AKDM combines the AK transform with the Adomian decomposition method.
The AK transform is a new integral transform introduced by Andualem and Khan in 2022. Properties of the AK transform and how it can be used to solve differential equations are presented.
The document then explains how the AKDM works by applying the AK transform to a general nonlinear differential equation, representing the solution as an infinite series, and decomposing the nonlinearity into Adomian polynomials to generate a recurrence relation for obtaining successive terms of the series solution.

It illustrates the approach using a simple 4-bar linkage example, calculating the inertial forces and moments, virtual displacements, and input torque. It then generalizes the approach for dynamic analysis of a 6 degree-of-freedom parallel manipulator like a Gough-Stewart platform. The approach leads to faster computation than traditional Newton-Euler methods by not requiring calculation of constraint forces between links.

Nonlinear Viscoelastic Analysis of Laminated Composite Plates β A Multi Scale...rtme
Β
Laminated composite plates are widely used in modern structures. Resins of composites are almost made of
polymers which show time dependent and and in some cases stress dependent behaviour. In this paper, a
laminated composite plate is analysed using a multiscale method. At first, material properties of a lamina is
obtained using an analytical micromechanical approach called simplified unit cell method (SUCM) and
then in macromechanical level, Generalized Differential Quadrature Method (GDQM) is used to analyse
laminated composite plate. Schapery's integral is used to model nonlinear viscoelastic behaviour of the
matrix. Prony series is considered to define the compliance of matrix. Micromechanical process includes
obtaining overall properties of the composite by SUCM. Both geometrical and material nonlinearity are
taken into account in order to multiscale analysis of laminated composite plate.

The document discusses using an elliptical curve as an alternative to compound or spiral curves for highway horizontal alignments. It provides equations to define an ellipse based on its major and minor axes and eccentricity. An approach is presented to determine the elliptical curve that satisfies design speed and radius requirements for a given highway design problem. Algorithms are provided to calculate chord lengths, deflection angles, and station points along the elliptical curve. An example problem applies the elliptical curve approach and compares results to equivalent circular and spiral-circular curves.

This document describes using MATLAB programming to analyze the slope and deflection of complex structure beams using the interpolation method and Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. It presents a method for calculating slope and deflection at any point on a beam subjected to multiple loads by using the principle of superposition. The document provides background on beam theory concepts like bending moment, radius of curvature, slope, and deflection. It also reviews previous work analyzing beams and plates with finite element methods or interpolation. Examples are given of calculating slope and deflection for different beam cases like a cantilever beam with a point load. The goal is to develop a MATLAB program to analyze complex beam structures without dependence on material properties.

In this article a MATLAB programming has shown which is based on the method of super position theory of a beam to investigate the slope and deflection of a complex structure beam. The beam is assumed and it is subjected to several loads in transverse direction. The governing equation
of slope and deflection of complex structure beam are obtained by method of super-position theory and Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Euler-Bernoulli beam theory (also known as Engineerβs beam theory or classical beam theory) is a simplification of the linear theory of elasticity which provides a means of calculating the load carrying and deflection characteristics of beams.

The document introduces meshfree methods, describes the moving least squares shape functions used, and presents the analysis of smart composite beams by deriving the governing equations and compatible displacement fields for the substrate beam and piezoelectric layer.

ABSTRACT
The paper introduces the 3D Kennedy theorem and applies
it for characterizing of the singular configuration of 6/6 Stewart
Platform (SP). The main idea underlying the proposed singular
characterization is as follows: we search for two lines, which
cross four of the six leg lines of the robot. For these two lines
we find two parallel lines that cross the remaining leg lines 5
and 6. Each pair of parallel lines defines a plane. Let π be the
intersection line of these two planes. The proposed singular
characterization is: the 6/6 SP is in a singular configuration if
and only if the line π is perpendicular to the common normal
of leg lines 5 and 6.
In addition, the method developed for the singular
characterization is also used for the analysis of the mobility of
SP. Finally, the proposed method is compared to other
singularity analysis methods, such as of Huntβs and Fichterβs
singular configuration and the 3/6 Stewart Platform singularity.
The relation between the reported characterizations of the
6/6 SP and other reported works is highlighted. Moreover, it is
shown that the known 3/6 singular characterization is a special
case of the work reported in the paper.

1. INTRODUCTION
This paper introduces the characterization of the singular
configuration of 6/6 Stewart Platform. Stewart Platform
consists of two bodies connected by six legs, which can vary
their lengths. One of the bodies is called the base and the other
is called the platform. One of the important problems in parallel
robots is characterization of the singular positions or special
configurationsI
. It is one of the main concerns in the analysis
and design of manipulators [1]. One of the known singular
configurations of SP is when all the six leg lines of the
mechanism cross one line [2]. An additional configuration is
when the moving platform rotates by Β±90Β° around the vertical
axis [3]. Merlet [4] classified the singular configurations
especially for 3/6 SP by using Grassmann algebra. This analysis
results are not available for the most general case of Gough-
Stewart platform, especially for general complex singularity
(5A) and special complex singularity (5B).
The main contribution of this paper is in the analysis of the
singularity of SP in general. The work introduced in the paper
can be used (as appears in the examples) as necessary condition
for singularity, such as architectural singularity that came up by
Ma and Angeles [5]. Some of the papers dealt with kinematics
to find the singular conditions of the mechanism [6] while
others dealt with statics [7, 8]. The main topic of this paper is
focusing on the statics (forces) in the SP from which the
singular characterization is derived.
In section two we provide a brief explanation of the 3D
Kennedy theorem and how the 2D Kennedy theorem is derived
from it. The proposed singular characterization of SP 6/6 is
introduced in section three by using reciprocal product (screw
theory) and 3D Kennedy theorem. Section four introduces the
