MODIFICATION OF BODY SCHEMA BY USE OF EXTRA ROBOTIC THUMB

Modification of body schema by use of extra robotic thumb

Abstract In recent years, there has been great interest in the possibility of using artificial limbs as an extension of the human body as well as replacement of lost limbs.In this paper, we develop a sixth finger system as an extension of the human body.We then investigate how an extra robotic thumb, that works as a sixth finger and gives somatosen

Nonlinear Dynamic Response of Compliant Journal Bearings

This paper investigates the dynamic response of the compliant tilting pad journal bearings subjected erbaviva sunscreen to synchronous excitation.Bearing compliance is affected by the properties of pad liner and pad support geometry.Different unbalance eccentricities are considered.It is shown that bearing dynamic response is non-linear.Journal orb
