Direct numerical simulations (DNS) form an important ingredient to physics-based prediction of laminar-turbulent transition in boundary-layer flows, particularly in applications where it is desirable or even essential to model the various stages of transition process in an integrated manner....

We analyze a supply chain consisting of one manufacturer and one retailer under consignment sales with a revenue sharing contract. The manufacturer produces before, but charges price to sell the products through the retailer after the demand curve is revealed. The retailer deducts a fraction...

Purpose – This paper presents a method to elaborate the selections of these parameters to achieve stable grasps. The performance of a prosthetic hand is mainly determined by its mechanical design. However, the effects of the geometric parameters of the hand configuration and the object sizes...

Purpose This paper aims to present the design and experiment of a modular multisensory prosthetic hand for applications. Design and experiment of a modular multisensory hand for prosthetic applications. Design/methodology/approach This paper reveals more details focusing on the appearance,...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to design a multi-sensory anthropomorphic prosthetic hand and a grasping controller that can detect the slip and automatically adjust the grasping force to prevent the slip. Design/methodology/approach To improve the dexterity, sensing, controllability and...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a five-fingered, multisensory prosthetic hand integrating both intuitive myoelectric control and sensory feedback. Design/methodology/approach – The artificial hand’s palm has a three-arcuate configuration and the thumb can move along a...
