Enhancing Upper Limb Rehabilitation: Workspace, Singularity and Structural Analysis of an Adaptive Two-Link Planar Manipulator
Abstract: The current shortage of therapists and caregivers who assist individuals with physical disabilities at home is anticipated to worsen in the future. Rehabilitation for upper limb exercises conducted by physical therapists is both time-consuming and expensive. This paper introduces a lightweight two-link planar device with revolute joints designed for upper limb rehabilitation. The primary focus is on the end-effector setup, evaluating its potential to enhance rehabilitation techniques. The manipulator's design …

Hybrid Beamforming Strategies for mm-wave Massive MIMO System
Abstract: Hybrid analog and digital beamforming (HBF) has emerged as a compelling solution for millimetre-wave (mm-wave) communication systems, addressing the need for efficient beamforming while minimizing hardware costs and power consumption. We optimise HBF for mm-wave Massive MIMO systems in the present article. Using the Spectral efficiency and bit rate error as the performance metrics to assess transmission reliability. To reduce computational complexity, we introduce a low-complexity singular value decomposition and …

A Comprehensive Survey on Detection of Video Transitions
Abstract: Video shot boundary detection (SBD) is a fundamental task in the field of video processing and analysis. It plays a critical role in various video applications such as content-based video retrieval, video indexing, editing, summarization, and browsing. Identifying shot boundaries helps segment a continuous video stream into distinct shots, each representing a meaningful visual unit. This segmentation is essential for organizing and interpreting video data efficiently. This study provides an …

Advance Fixed Point Theorems and Its Application to Ordinary and Fractional Differential Equations
Abstract: In the present research, advanced results on the fixed point theorem are applied to typical boundary value problems. Finding a differential equation's solution under certain boundary conditions is the goal of typical boundary value topics. The article appears to extend new fixed point results to a new context, likely involving fractional operators with unique kernels, notably the Caputo-type fractional operator. This extension involves applying the fixed point theorem to a …

An Experimental Study on The Effect of Geopolymeric Composite Reinforcement on Soil Subgrade for Flexible Pavements
Abstract: The use of geo-synthetics, such as geotextiles, has the potential to enhance the inherent engineering and geotechnical properties of subgrade soils that exhibit poor conditions. The use of geotextiles in pavement construction has many advantages, including enhanced subgrade strength and the ability to construct flexible pavements that are both efficient and cost-effective since it reduces the pavement thickness. In the realm of flexible pavement system development, the significance of subgrade …

Development of Web-enabled Smart Hospital Management System: Patient Data Visualization and Real-time Decision Making
Abstract: As everyone is aware, fewer people had access to healthcare services, which prevented many people from receiving the care they needed. The idea that, by WHO criteria, there should be one physician for every 1,000 patients is nearly unbelievable. Yet, India’s current ratio is a staggering 1:1445. This disparity highlights a serious gap in healthcare resources that cannot be ignored. Authors remember speaking with a friend who works in a …

The Pursuit of Passion: Navigating Career Choices in Today’s Competitive Landscape
Abstract: In today’s world, it’s common to see people chasing after name, fame, and wealth. While there’s nothing inherently wrong with ambition, this persistent pursuit often comes at the expense of genuine happiness, fun, and enjoyment. This is particularly evident among teenagers, who face immense pressure from their parents, peers, and societal expectations. Parents often place their unfulfilled dreams and aspirations onto their children, hoping they will achieve swift success and …

Parameter Identification of Vibrating MIMO Mass-Spring-Damper Mechanical Systems with Coulomb Friction
Abstract: This study presents a time-domain method for identifying parameters in multi-degree-of-freedom (DOF) linear mass-spring-damper systems that include Coulomb friction, where the friction coefficient varies within a limited range, using measurements of position and control force. For mass identification in single-degree-of-freedom (DOF) vibrating mechanical systems with stiffness and no damping but Coulomb friction, the friction term is eliminated by first derivative processing. In addition, the identification of the coefficient of friction …

Comparative Analysis of Serial and Parallel Robot Mechanisms for Industrial Automation
Abstract: Serial and parallel manipulators represent two major mechanical architectures in industrial automation, each with distinct strengths and trade-offs. This study presents a detailed comparative analysis of serial-chain (open-kinematic) robots and parallel-kinematic manipulators (PKMs) with a focus on industrial automation tasks. It covers kinematics, static accuracy and stiffness, dynamics and actuation requirements, control and calibration burdens, workspace and singularity behaviour, and practical industrial considerations (cost, integration, safety, maintenance). Serial robots, exemplified …

Harmonically Varying Moving Load on Time-Dependent Uniform Beam Resting on Pasternak Foundation
Abstract: In this paper, we investigated elastic beam whose properties does not varies with spatial coordinate but constant along the span L of the beam. The moving load considered in this work is harmonically varying moving load with non-classical boundary conditions, time dependent boundary conditions in particular. Also, considered in this work is two parameters foundation which are Winkler and Pasternak foundations. Closed form solutions in plotted form are obtained using …
