A bang-bang control scheme was used for both the position control of the slave and the force control of the master. A prototype was built to demonstrate stability and other aspects of the design concept. Air cooling of the SMA wires proved inadequate, causing the slave to lag behind the master when the slave wires were being returned to extended length. An experiment was performed to determine the cooling time constants for the SMA wire in air, water, and a 50/50 mixture of water and glycerol.","PeriodicalId":359363,"journal":{"name":"The 24th Southeastern Symposium on and The 3rd Annual Symposium on Communications, Signal Processing Expert Systems, and ASIC VLSI Design System Theory","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129866070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fault model for wiring defects includes bridging faults, stuck-at faults and open faults. We show that complete diagnosis of I/O faults can be achieved by considering single faults only rather than fault pairs and we have modified a traditional system that supports single stuck fault test generation to also perform pattern generation for complete diagnosis. Rather than building a fault dictionary from detection patterns, we introduce distinguishing functions, a fault diagnosis tree and heuristics to resolve signatures of faults so that they become unique or are proven equivalent. Experimental results with large benchmark circuits show that complete diagnosis for stuck-at as well as bridging I/O faults is possible. The number of patterns for complete diagnosis compares favorably with patterns required for first detection of single stuck-at faults only.","PeriodicalId":359363,"journal":{"name":"The 24th Southeastern Symposium on and The 3rd Annual Symposium on Communications, Signal Processing Expert Systems, and ASIC VLSI Design System Theory","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130190381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
