Modelling and analysis of heavy commercial vehicle suspension system for fatigue life enhancement

In India, the core of the logistic sector is the trucking industry. The manufacturing business ensures that their product reaches the end customer quickly and thus they outsource their logistical operations to logistic service providers. More than 60% of goods are transported by road. Due to globalization and digitalization, the demand for logistics has increased. To meet the demand most truck owners are recklessly permitting overloading to increase margins, to save time by risking the consequences of in-transit issues as well as its negative impact on the infrastructure. This paper addresses one such problem that many drivers and their customers face regularly. To reduce the time required for weighing and getting instant results a payload measurement system is developed which is an external attachment to the vehicle. The results obtained by this model are quick and accurate. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

Payload Measurement Using Suspension System in Goods Carrier

Automation technology plays an increasingly major role in providing higher efficiency in almost all fields of knowledge. One of the sectors of automation is Robotics, which involves building mechanical and electronic structures that would run on computer codes. These codes with technical advancement can further be upgraded to machine learning and artificial information algorithms. Robotics has the potential to bridge the gap between the physical and the cybernetic world. The prime objective of this paper is to put forward a robot that can increase the productivity and efficiency of an operation besides minimizing the efforts, time, and labor. Alongside, the arm also ensures the safety of the operator. The paper initially discusses the basics of robots and a few significant terminologies related to them. There are diverse ways to control a robot, one of them being gesture control. The researcher proposes to build a robot that is controlled by hand gestures using the Inertial Measurement Unit sensors. Further, a discussion is also made on the mechanical design with CAD modeling, electronic systems, and code for controlling the robotic arm with sensor inputs. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

Analysis and fabrication of Automatic Four-way Hacksaw Machine

A high precision or surgeon skills are required in some of the precision procedures such as micro-scale minimally invasive surgeries. Robotic manipulators are being explored for carrying out surgeries with minimal invasion, outstanding precision and stability of the tool. Major challenges in developing such systems are motion of the tool with 'mechanical' remote center and preserving surgical feel of the surgeon. This paper presents conceptual design of 2-DOF isosceles trapezoidal remote center motion mechanism. The proposed concepts use mechanically generated RCM. The compact and handy design helps to preserve the 'surgical feel'. The use of compliant links over rigid link mechanism brings the precision in manipulation. Extensive, nonlinear FE analysis demonstrates the accuracy of the RCM. Further the actuation method, sensor scheme and control scheme are presented as an example case. © 2018 IEEE.
