ASR of two peg-in-hole robot assemblies was used as an example by taking component parts' sizes, manufacturing tolerances and robot repeatability into account. A statistic arithmetic expression was proposed and deduced in this paper, which offers an alternative method of estimating the accuracy of ASR, without having to repeat the simulations. This statistic method also helps to choose a suitable sample size, if error reduction is desired. Monte Carlo simulation results demonstrated the feasibility of the method.展开更多

The measurement is proposed to a formal procedure and measuring the mass of leaves on a tree, tailored to branching plant structures with Simpson＇ s rule and Monte Carlo Methods. L-system is possible to visualize mathematical models of biological structures and processes. The formalism is illustrated using theoretical branching systems, and applied to analyze total leaves number as well as total weight of them.展开更多
