Determination of manipulator link lengths is one of the important criteria in robotic design. The purpose of this study is to find the minimum energy utilization for a 3 DOF revolute articulated manipulator to perform certain point-to-point task by varying the link lengths of the manipulator. The lengths of the second and third link of the developed manipulator can be varied accordingly. The investigation of energy for different link length combinations is carried out theoretically. In the simulation, the work-energy method is constituted in order to determine the average mechanical energy of the manipulator. The simulation shows that, different trajectory of motions results in different link length combinations that could give optimum average energy utilization. Results of the simulations shows that, improvement of mechanical energy utilization could be achieved by having variable link length of manipulator rather than having fixed length of manipulator’s arms.

The junction angles in fluvial channels are determined from complex erosion and deposition processes, resulting from river-flow dynamics, bed and margin morphology, and so on. Knowledge regarding these angles is important in order to better understand the existing conditions in a basin. In this sense, the objective of the present study was to determine the junction angles on fluvial channels, called α, β and γ, applying the law of cosines. Georeferenced Google Earth Pro images and UAV images were used. Then, the values calculated from the georeferenced aerial images were compared with the values calculated from the minimum energy principle. To visualize and understand the obtained angles, the Junction Angles Diagram was used. The obtained result shows that the methodology using georeferenced aerial images have good performance for determining junction angles on fluvial channels.

We present an approach that combines protein sequence/structure evolution and electron localization function (ELF) analyses. The combination of these two analysis allows the determination of whether a residue needs to be included in the QM subsystem, or can be represented by the MM environment. We have applied this approach on two systems previously investigated by QM/MM simulations, 4{oxalocrotonate tautomerase (4OT), and ten-eleven translocation-2 (TET2), that provide examples where fragments may or may not need to be included in the QM subsystem. Subsequently, we present the use of this approach to determine the appropriate QM subsystem to calculate the minimum energy path (MEP) for the reaction catalyzed by human DNA polymerase lambda? with a third cation in the active site.
