In this paper, a genetic algorithm (GA) is used to design faulttolerant analog controllers for a piezoelectric micro-robot. Firstorder and second-order functions are developed to ...
Abstract— Piezoelectric actuators are advantageous for microrobots due to their light weight, high bandwidth, high force production, low power consumption, and simplicity of inte...
