31. Kinematic Modeling and Calibration of a Flexure Based Hexapod Nanopositioner
Topic: Manufacturing
Published: 8/21/2012
Authors: Hongliang Shi, Hai-Jun Su, Nicholas G Dagalakis, John A Kramar
Abstract: This paper covers the kinematic modeling of a flexure-based, hexapod nanopositioner and a new method of calibration for this type of nanopositioner. This six degrees of freedom tri-stage nanopositioner can generate small displacement, high-resolution ...

34. Performance Measures Framework for Unmanned Systems (PerMFUS): Models for Contextual Metrics
Topic: Manufacturing
Published: 7/31/2012
Authors: Hui-Min Huang, Elena R Messina, Adam S Jacoff, Robert Wade, Micheal McNail
Abstract: In the development of the Performance Measures Framework for Unmanned Systems (PerMFUS), we have established a multiple-axis performance metrics model for the unmanned systems (UMS). This model characterizes the UMS performance requirements by the m ...

35. Information Required for Dimensional Measurement
Topic: Manufacturing
Published: 7/27/2012
Authors: John A Horst, Curtis Brown, Robert Brown, Larry Maggiano, K Summerhays, Thomas Rollin Kramer
Abstract: Much work has been done by standards organizations to model dimensional measurement information in digital formats, but the work done has revealed that standard digital formats from upstream processes are currently insufficient to enable the automati ...

36. Multiple electrokinetic actuators for feedback control of colloidal crystal size
Topic: Manufacturing
Published: 7/27/2012
Authors: Jaime Juarez, Pramod Pappachan Mathai, James Alexander Liddle, Michael Bevan
Abstract: We report a feedback method for controlling the sizes of hexagonally close packed two-dimensional colloidal crystals in a microfluidic quadrupole electrode device. Crystal size, measured by the number of colloidal particles comprising the crystal, is ...
