This work presents a study of the frictional effect on the stability of a three-rigid link object manipulated by two cooperative robot arms in a plane. It is supposed that the three-rigid link object interacts with the two robot arms at multi contact points to perform the nonprehensile manipulation of the object. The object is figured out in a way such that one of the arms is in contact with two links of the object, while the other arm is free to slide along the third link. The effect of changing frictional forces at the contact points as well as their directions on the stability of the manipulated object is to be explored by defining the system constraints. A definition of what is called the "Stability Margin" is obtained. For the same orientation of the object links, the Stability Margin is a region of equilibrium contact points between the sliding arm and the corresponding object link where the robot arm could be placed in without dropping the object. Later, an experimental system consisting of a three-rigid link object and a two planar robot arms manipulation system is equipped to verify the concept.
Recurrence of states, in the meaning that states are arbitrary close after some time, is a fundamental property of deterministic dynamical systems and is typical of nonlinear or chaotic systems. The main idea of the r...

Stroke has now become the leading cause of severe disability. Rehabilitation robots are gradually becoming popular for stroke rehabilitation to improve motor recovery, as robotic technology can assist, enhance, and further quantify rehabilitation training for stroke patients. However, most of the available rehabilitation robots are complex and involve multiple degrees-of-freedom (DOFs) causing it to be very expensive and huge in size. Rehabilitation robots should be useful but also need to be affordable and portable enabling more patients to afford and train independently at home. This paper presents a development of an affordable, portable and compact rehabilitation robot that implements different rehabilitation strategies for stroke patient to train forearm and wrist movement in an enhanced virtual reality environment with haptic feedback.

The paper presents the results of numerical analyses carried out for 2D models of aluminum plates undergoing crack propagation. Different types of numerical analyses were performed to show the area of applicability of a non-local discrete formulation of mechanical continua for NDE and QNDE. The authors’ interests dealt with: Lamb wave propagation, higher harmonics generation, the phenomenon of clapping, and wave generation and its propagation for growing crack. In the first case a 2D model allowed to find the displacements for the vertical cross-section along the direction of wave propagation and therefore assess its disturbance when introducing a notch. In-plane components of the displacements were considered for the latter 3 cases, in turn. The above cases and elaborated non-local numerical models were discussed in terms of detection of propagating crack. Apart from theoretical aspects of the presented work, the obtained results seem to be of great importance for improvement of experiments in terms of sensor distribution and required accuracy.
