21. A Humidity Generator for Temperatures to 200 °C and Pressures to 1.6 MPa
Topic: Manufacturing
Published: 11/30/2012
Authors: D Vega-Maza, W Wyatt Miller, Dean C Ripple, Gregory E Scace
Abstract: We have constructed a new humidity generator that produces gas streams of known moisture content at temperatures from 85 °C to 200 °C, absolute pressures from 0.2 MPa to 1.6 MPa, and relative humidities from 10 % to 90 %. The generator produces a moi ...

22. Best Practices and Performance Metrics Using Force Control for Robotic Assembly
Series: NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR)
Report Number: 7901
Topic: Manufacturing
Published: 11/23/2012
Authors: Jeremy A Marvel, Joseph A Falco
Abstract: Historically, mechanical assembly was predicted to be the dominant application domain of industrial robots; yet assembly tasks are still primarily addressed by manual labor. New advances in force control (FC), machine vision, and robot dexterity ...

26. An Approach to Ontology-Based Intention Recognition Using State Representations
Topic: Manufacturing
Published: 10/7/2012
Authors: Craig I Schlenoff, Sebti Foufou, Stephen B. Balakirsky
Abstract: In this paper, we present initial thoughts on an approach to ontology/logic-based intention recognition based on the recognition, representation, and ordering of states. This is different than traditional approaches to intention recognition, which us ...
