Within the fields of everyday carry and travel security, the zipper lock is a category whose core structure has rarely been reexamined. For decades, most designs have relied on keys or simple ...

Abstract: The operational characteristics of high-voltage circuit breakers critically influence phase-controlled closing and power grid safety. To investigate the influence weights of structural ...

Abstract: Various design modifications have been proposed for tendon-driven continuum robots to improve their stiffness and workspace. One of them is using locking mechanisms to constrain the lengths ...
