Abstract. This paper presents a new approach to optimize gait parameter sets using evolutionary algorithms. It separates the crossover-step of the evolutionary algorithm into an in...
— Rigid body dynamics with contact constraints can be solved locally using linear complementarity techniques. However, these techniques do not impose the original constraints and...
A device that could locomote through curving and tortuous spaces would find many applications in medicine and in industry. Invertebrates such as earthworms and leeches can solve t...

The e ect of redundant sensors in the solution of the direct kinematics of general parallel manipulators is studied here, for purposes of on-line implementation. We describe three...
—Inspired by the simplicity of how nature solves its problems, we implement a bacteria controller on a physical platform that would enable the localisation and subsequent mapping...
