While it provides the unprecedented processing power to solve many large scale computational problems, GRID, if abused, has the potential to easily be used to launch (for instance...
— There is much to gain from providing walking machines with passive dynamics, e.g. by including compliant elements in the structure. These elements can offer interesting propert...
—This paper studies the capabilities of a microrobotic platform, driven by vibrating motors, to generate and impart micromanipulation forces of desired type and magnitude. First,...
