SUMMARYThis paper presents a new method to analyze frictionless grasp immobility based on defined surface-to-surface signed distance function. Distance function's differential properties are analyzed and its second-order Taylor expansion with respect to differential motion is deduced. Based on the non-negative condition of the signed distance function, the first- and second-order free motions are defined and the corresponding conditions for immobility of frictionless grasp are derived. As one benefit of the proposed method, the second-order immobility check can be formulated as a nonlinear programming problem. Numerical examples are used to verify the proposed method.

In this article, we present a simple method for network visualization. The proposed method is based on distmesh [P.O. Persson and G. Strang, A simple mesh generator in MATLAB, SIAM Review 46 (2004) pp. 329–345], which is a simple unstructured triangular mesh generator for geometries represented by a signed distance function. We demonstrate a good performance of the proposed algorithm through several network visualization examples.
