Mitigation of spatial economic impact propagation of highway disruptions by redundant networks
Tomoki Ishikura
The damage to transportation infrastructure caused by disasters can indirectly lead to economic damage through economic interdependence, even in areas that are not directly affecte…
Component Influence-Driven Fastener Reduction for Robotic Disassemblability-Aware Design Simplification
Takuya Kiyokawa, Tomoki Ishikura, Shingo Hamada +2
To accelerate automated remanufacturing, robotic disassembly must be considered during the product design phase. However, designers currently lack quantitative feedback to identify…
Industrial-Grade Robust Robot Vision for Screw Detection and Removal under Uneven Conditions
Tomoki Ishikura, Genichiro Matsuda, Takuya Kiyokawa +1
As the amount of used home appliances is expected to increase despite the decreasing labor force in Japan, there is a need to automate disassembling processes at recycling plants.…
Hierarchical Planning and Scheduling for Reconfigurable Multi-Robot Disassembly Systems under Structural Constraints
Takuya Kiyokawa, Tomoki Ishikura, Shingo Hamada +2
This study presents a system integration approach for planning schedules, sequences, tasks, and motions for reconfigurable robots to automatically disassemble constrained structure…
Affordance-Guided Dual-Armed Disassembly Teleoperation for Mating Parts
Gen Sako, Takuya Kiyokawa, Kensuke Harada +3
Robotic non-destructive disassembly of mating parts remains challenging due to the need for flexible manipulation and the limited visibility of internal structures. This study pres…
Modular Vacuum-Based Fixturing System for Adaptive Disassembly Workspace Integration
Haohui Pan, Takuya Kiyokawa, Tomoki Ishikura +3
The disassembly of small household appliances poses significant challenges due to their complex and curved geometries, which render traditional rigid fixtures inadequate. In this p…
