— One of features of soft object manipulation is motion during deformation of the soft body. We analyze the stability of soft object manipulation by simultaneous control of motio...
In this article, we show how a behavior based control system for autonomous robots can be modeled as a hybrid automaton, where each node corresponds to a distinct robot behavior. T...
—This paper discusses a method to identify dynamic parameters in a rigid-link flexible-joint robot model using motion capture. The procedure is divided into two parts. First, the...
— After briefly summarizing the mechanical design of the two joint prototypes for the new DLR variable compliance arm, the paper exemplifies the dynamic modelling of one of the...
This paper is devoted to the problem of nonlinear robust control design for Underwater Vehicle/Manipulator (UVM) systems composed of a freefloating platform equipped with a robot ...
