The Rational Footsteps for the Design of the Mechanism of a Vertical Carousel-type Storage Device
Abstract The number of design parameters in a vertical carousel-type storage device is larger than the number of functional requirements, which makes it a redundant design. The usual design approach for this kind of mechanical systems is based on...
