Design of six degrees of freedom hydraulic manipulator for underwater application
Research in Arctic regions has increased significantly in the last years. Depletion of natural resources has required the oil and gas companies to search for alternative locations to harvest the natural resources. Arctic subsea environment contains significant territories still untouched. Strong tidal...
