FREEDOM MOVE [11 records]

Record 1 2024-11-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Applications of Automation
  • Interplanetary Space Exploration
CONT

A snake robot is a robotic mechanism designed to move like a biological snake. Inspired by the robustness and stability of biological snake locomotion, snake robots carry the potential of meeting the growing need for robotic mobility in unknown and challenging environments. These mechanisms typically consist of many serially connected joint modules capable of bending in one or more planes. The many degrees of freedom of snake robots make them difficult to control but provide potential locomotion skills in cluttered and irregular environments which surpass the mobility of more conventional wheeled, tracked, and legged robots.

Record 3 2012-10-02

English

Subject field(s)
  • Applications of Automation
DEF

A robot whose computer control system describes a desired path between any preprogrammed points. Each axis or degree of freedom can be controlled and actuated simultaneously to move to those points. The computer calculates both the desired path and the acceleration, deceleration, and velocity of the robot arm along the path.

Record 4 2003-09-30

English

Subject field(s)
  • Sports Equipment Manufacture
  • Travel Articles (Tourism)
CONT

Internal frames are usually parallel aluminium staves in channels on the back of the pack. These are thinner and more flexible than frame staves found on external frames, and are usually either independent or only attached to one another at the top, so they flex and move with the wearer far more than is generally the case with external frames. This leads to greater freedom of movement, and also means that the pack body is closer in to the wearer's back, enabling the centre of mass to be held closer to the wearer's own. This isn’t as comfortable standing around as a high load, but it's a lot easier to balance it, especially off the trail in rougher stuff.

Record 6 1998-09-03

English

Subject field(s)
  • Applications of Automation
DEF

An overhead-mounted, rectilinear robot with a minimum of three degrees of freedom and normally not exceeding six. Bench-mounted assembly robots that have a gantry design are not included in this definition. A gantry robot can move along its x and y axes traveling over relatively greater distances than a pedestal-mounted robot at high traverse speeds while still providing a high degree of accuracy for positioning. Features of a gantry robot include large work envelopes, heavy payloads, mobile overhead mounting, and the capability and flexibility to operate over the work area of several pedestal-mounted robots.

Record 7 1996-10-11

English

Subject field(s)
  • Chemistry
DEF

A situation in which the freedom of molecules of adsorbate to move about the surface is limited. Adsorption is immobile when kT is small compared to [delta capitalized] E, the energy barrier separating adjacent sites. The adsorbate has little chance of migrating to neighbouring sites and such adsorption is necessarily localized.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Chimie
DEF

Une situation dans laquelle la liberté de mouvement des espèces adsorbées est limitée. L'adsorption est immobile lorsque kT est faible en comparaison de [delta majuscule] E, la barrière d'énergie qui sépare des sites adjacents. Les molécules adsorbées ont peu de chances de migrer vers des sites avoisinants et une telle adsorption est nécessairement limitée.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Immunology
CONT

Fluorescence polarization. If polarized light is directed at a fluorescent molecule it is absorbed and emitted shortly afterwards, during which time the molecules move at random so that the fluorescent emission shows reduced polarization. If, however, the fluorescent molecule is bound to an antibody it has less rotational freedom and the polarization of the emission will be retained to a greater degree.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Immunologie
CONT

Méthodes fluorométriques. Le degré de polarisation de la lumière émise par des molécules fluorescentes excitées par un rayon de lumière polarisée dépend de la taille de la molécule. Les petites molécules avec beaucoup de mouvement rotationnel donnent peu de polarisation, Si, cependant, la molécule fluorescente est liée à une grande particule telle qu'un anticorps, son mouvement rotationnel est restreint et la polarisation de la lumière augmente. Ainsi, la proportion des molécules d'antigènes liées par molécule d'anticorps peut être évaluée par mesure de la polarisation de la fluorescence.
