The shapes of forests of inheritance trees can affect the amount of code reuse in an object-oriented system. Designers can benefit from knowing how structuring decisions affect r...
The application of robots in critical missions in hazardous environments requires the development of reliable or fault tolerant manipulators. In this paper, we define fault tolera...
Precise teleoperation of deztrous robotic hands by hand masters requires an accurate human hand model. A kinematic model of a human index finger is developed as an example for hum...
Vector field rendering is difficult in 3D because the vector icons overlap and hide each other. We propose four different techniques for visualizing vector fields only near surfac...
Converting complex equations into simpler, more tractable equations usually involves approximation. Approximation is usually done by identifying and removing insignificant terms, ...
