Motion Planning for a 3-DOF Robot with a Passive Joint
This paper studies motion planning from one zero velocity state to another for a three-joint robot in a horizontal plane witha passive revolute third joint. Such a robot is small-...

Off-road robot modeling with dextrous manipulation kinematics
— We present a novel way of modeling wheeled vehicles on outdoor terrains. Adapting concepts from dextrous manipulation, we precisely model the way that three dimensional wheels ...
