  2. Columbus (ISS module) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbus_(ISS_module)

    The laboratory is a cylindrical module, made from stainless steel, kevlar and hardened aluminum, with two end cones. It is 4.477 m (14 ft 8.3 in) in external diameter and 6.871 m (22 ft 6.5 in) in overall length, excluding the projecting external experiment racks.

  3. Articulated robot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Articulated_robot

    Absolute accuracy is the difference between a point instructed by the robot control system and the point actually achieved by the manipulator arm, while repeatability is the cycle-to-cycle variation of the manipulator arm when aimed at the same point. Repeatability: See Figure. The ability of a system or mechanism to repeat the same motion or ...

  4. MOOSE (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOOSE_(software)

    The development of MOOSE at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) since May 2008, has resulted in a unique approach to computational engineering that combines computer science with a strong underlying mathematical description in a unique way that allows scientists and engineers to develop engineering simulation tools in a fraction of the time previously required. [2]

    The station received a second robotic arm during STS-124, the Japanese Experiment Module Remote Manipulator System (JEM-RMS). The JEM-RMS is primarily used to service the JEM Exposed Facility. An additional robotic arm, the European Robotic Arm (ERA) was launched alongside the Russian-built Multipurpose Laboratory Module on July 15, 2021.

  6. Del in cylindrical and spherical coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Del_in_cylindrical_and...

    This article uses the standard notation ISO 80000-2, which supersedes ISO 31-11, for spherical coordinates (other sources may reverse the definitions of θ and φ): . The polar angle is denoted by [,]: it is the angle between the z-axis and the radial vector connecting the origin to the point in question.

  7. Cartesian parallel manipulators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Cartesian_parallel_manipulators

    In robotics, Cartesian parallel manipulators are manipulators that move a platform using parallel-connected kinematic linkages ('limbs') lined up with a Cartesian coordinate system. Multiple limbs connect the moving platform to a base. Each limb is driven by a linear actuator and the linear actuators are mutually perpendicular.

  8. Manipulator (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manipulator_(device)

    In robotics, a manipulator is a device used to manipulate materials without direct physical contact by the operator. The applications were originally for dealing with radioactive or biohazardous materials, using robotic arms , or they were used in inaccessible places.

  9. Reaction Engines - Wikipedia

    Although Skylon was designed to only launch and retrieve satellites, and would be uncrewed, Reaction Engines Ltd. proposed a passenger module in the payload bay of the Reaction Engines Skylon spaceplane. [21] The passenger module was sized to fit in the payload bay, and early designs could carry up to 24 passengers and 1 crew.
