– Conservation of angular momentum that introduces nonholonomic behavior, underactuation and time dependence, makes the trajectory planning of gymnastic robots difficult. By defi...

— Proposed new actuation mechanism realizes active or semi-active mobility for flexible long cables such as fiberscopes and scope cameras. A ciliary vibration mechanism was dev...
Cell-DEVS is an extension to the DEVS formalism that allows the definition of cellular models. CD++ is a modeling and simulation tool that implements DEVS and Cell-DEVS formalisms....
Generating manipulator trajectories considering multiple objectives and obstacle avoidance is a non trivial optimization problem. In this paper a multiobjective genetic algorithm i...
We develop non-smooth motion controllers that enable redundant manipulators to perform surface tasks, that involve force/torque interactions. The robot joint rates are constrained ...
