— This paper proposes, through a survey of models of several UAV-Structures, a generic nonlinear model for reduced scale aerial robotic vehicles (6 DOF)1 . Dynamics of an aircraf...
— We examine the usefulness of passive compliance in a manipulator that learns contact motion. Based on the notice that humans outperforms robots with the contact motion, we foll...
We propose in this paper new redundancy-based solutions to avoid robot joint limits of a manipulator. We use a control scheme based on the task function approach. We first recall...
: This paper presents a new 3-D design of a discretely-actuated robot manipulator powered by binary actuators. Binary actuators have two stable states, which are, for example, clos...
In this paper we consider the structural properties of the dynamics of robotic manipulation systems of a rather general class, including multiple cooperating, possibly whole-arm l...
