...). By assuming a friction coefficient equal to 0.2 and an adhesive mean shear strength τ ad equal to 20 MPa [ 17 ] the allowable pressure p C_H (Eq. 12 ) proves equal to 148 MPa and, therefore, the axial releasing force (Eq. 7 ) proves equal to 467.5 kN (the tensile state value on the shaft is equal...

... process. These rules are then applied to the design of pneumatically and hydraulically actuated OctArm manipulators using 100 psi and 1000 psi maximum pressures, respectively. 12 09 2007 11 04 2008 11 08 2008 actuators genetic algorithms manipulator kinematics shear strength...
