Teams of autonomous space robots are needed for future space missions such as the construction of large solar power stations and large space telescopes in earth orbit. This work fo...
This paper concerns the study of the optimal performance computation of a semi-active suspension evaluated in terms of comfort and handling performances. To this aim the semi-activ...

A fast design variation technique for mechanical systems is presented. It is used to interactively optimize mechanical characteristics while "self-assembling" or satisfy...
The Kneed Walker is a physics-based model derived from a planar biomechanical characterization of human locomotion. By controlling torques at the knees, hips and torso, the model ...
