The elastic task model proposed by Buttazzo, et. al. [9] is a powerful model for adapting real-time systems in the presence of uncertainty. This paper generalizes the existing ela...

E cient and powerful topologically adaptable deformable surfaces can be created by embedding and de ning discrete deformable surface models in terms of an A ne Cell Decomposition (...
— Unlike active force closure, which is a property for the multi-finger robotic hand grasping, passive force closure are involved in the grasping systems with constraining devic...
— We present a hydro-elastic actuator that has a linear spring intentionally placed in series between the hydraulic piston and actuator output. The spring strain is measured to g...
We present a discrete treatment of adapted framed curves, parallel transport, and holonomy, thus establishing the language for a discrete geometric model of thin flexible rods wit...
