The design principle of the mechanism is introduced, and the kinematics analysis method based on differentiation is used to get the (inverse) kinematics equations. Then a micro-scale motion precision simulation method is proposed according to finite element analysis (FEA), and the prediction of robot’s motion precision in design phase is realized. The simulation result indicates that the 6-DOF micro-manipulation robot can meet the design specification.展开更多

It is found that a monopole and dipole correction for the radial acceleration relation can better describe the SPARC data set. The monopole term is negligible but the dipole magnitude is significant. It is also found that the dipole correction is mostly induced by anisotropy in the acceleration scale. The magnitude of the g↑-dipole reaches 0.25±0.04, and its direction is aligned to (l,b)=(171.30°±7.18°,-15.41°±4.87°), which is very close to the maximum anisotropy direction from the hemisphere comparison method. Furthermore, a robust check shows that the dipole anisotropy could not be reproduced by an isotropic mock data set. However, it is still premature to claim that the Universe is anisotropic, due to the small data samples and uncertainty in the current observations.展开更多

The current and future radio telescopes that we consider here are Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST), Baryon acoustic oscillations In Neutral Gas Observations(BINGO), and Square Kilometre Array phase Ⅰ(SKA-Ⅰ) single-dish experiments. We also forecast the combined constraints of the three radio telescopes with Planck. We find that the 1σ errors of(w0, wa) for BINGO, FAST and SKA-Ⅰ with respect to the fiducial values are respectively,(0.9293, 3.5792),(0.4083, 1.5878) and(0.3158, 0.4622). This is equivalent to(56.04%, 55.64%) and(66.02%, 87.09%) improvements in constraining(w0, wa) for FAST and SKA-Ⅰ respectively relative to BINGO. Simulations further show that SKA-Ⅰ will put more stringent constraints than both FAST and BINGO when each of the experiments is combined with Planck measurements. The 1σ errors for(w0, wa), BINGO + Planck, FAST + Planck and SKA-Ⅰ + Planck covariance matrices are respectively(0.0832, 0.3520),(0.0791, 0.3313) and(0.0678, 0.2679) implying there is an improvement in(w0, wa) constraints of(4.93%, 5.88%) for FAST + Planck relative to BINGO + Planck and an improvement of(18.51%, 23.89%) in constraining(w0, wa) for SKA-Ⅰ + Planck relative to BINGO + Planck. We also compared the performance of Planck data plus each single-dish experiment relative to Planck alone,and find that the reduction in(w0, wa) 1σ errors for each experiment plus Planck, respectively, imply the(w0, wa) constraints improvement of(22.96%, 8.45%),(26.76%, 13.84%) and(37.22%, 30.33%) for BINGO + Planck, FAST + Planck and SKA-Ⅰ + Planck relative to Planck alone. For the nine cosmological parameters in consideration, we find that there is a trade-off between SKA-Ⅰ and FAST in constraining cosmological parameters, with each experiment being more superior in constraining a particular set of parameters.展开更多
