Examples of payload

payload
The microbial payloads can be captured in asteroids where they may multiply and disperse.
However, heavy payloads, tight tolerances, and design constraints can combine to make the control of these systems difficult.
However, it later became necessary to introduce explicit management for payloads of messages because the garbage collector caused memory fragmentation and high processing overhead.
A manipulator can have an arbitrary number of bodies (including the base and payloads) being arbitrarily articulated by a set of joints.
We can then expect these robot aircraft to have the capability of carrying scientific payloads and other experiments into the stratosphere.
Therefore, it is particularly important to design control strategies that ensure accurate and stable path following despite the uncertainties and unknown payloads.
Except for reconfigurability requirements, lighter manipulators that can handle heavier payloads have brought more attention to both robot designers and industrial manufacturers.
Here, the control system for a six degree-of-freedom heavylift mobile manipulator for lifting and inserting payloads on the deck of a ship is described.
The control system must allow an operator to insert payloads into slots with tolerances in the order of millimeters.
Payload components are arranged according to their temperature requirements.
The remainder of the object is called the payload, and may consist of a mixture of pointers and non-pointers.
The possibility to render the elastic vibrations as small as desired is proved analytically for a gantry crane with a payload.
The cable mass and the moment of the payload inertia around its mass center are neglected here.
The forces could be due to the payload at the manipulator's final link or could be due to reaction forces at the joints.
However, sometimes these bounds may not be easily obtained because of the uncertainties, and varying payload.
