Starting from the analysis of the modern robotic arc welding system from the kinematic point of view, the paper presents an original concept of the systems structure. Instead a combination of two open chains, as it is generally seen, the author proposes one single closed kinematic chain. The main element of this chain is the electric arc employed for welding, virtually seen as a vector which connects the two open chains, the robot and the part manipulator. This new approach could possibly change and simplify the way arc welding robots are programmed today.

This paper presents a new approach for the synthesis of high-stiffness five-bar and seven- bar linkage structures based on the concept of orthogonal paths. The intersection point of two orthogonal paths is the location of a floating joint at which the motion is prevented to the maximum degree. Instead of analyzing link materials, deformations, and joint clearances, the approaches here provide designers with another way to obtain the geometrical configurations of five-bar and seven-bar linkage structures with high stiffness from a kinematic point of view. Two types of linkage structures, five-bar and seven-bar linkages, will be used for high-stiffness synthesis. The complete design procedures are presented for two different cases of each type.

Type as Image: Eliciting Emotions is a project of VCDE233 Typography II (Constanza Pacher) and VCDI223 Design and Pre-Press Production (Jess Dupuis), both courses in the Design Studies Diploma Program at MacEwan University. Students were asked to capture the essence of the book Indian Horse, by Richard Wagamese, and translate it into a three-poster series using typography as the main element. Under the premise that the visual form is dictated by the content, students were encouraged to analyze plot, characters, point of view, imagery, tone, themes and symbolism to extract key words, sentences and passages as the basis for their designs. Students were asked to challenge literal interpretations by exploring the use of expressive typography and text and image relationships.
