Decreasing the vibration amplitude of the manipulator in the Space Manipulator Systems
(SMS) with a given mass limitation is an effective way to reduce the control costs for the …

Continuum robots offer significant advantages over traditional ones in some specific
scenarios, such as urban search and rescue, minimally invasive surgery, and inspection of …

In this paper, a modeling, cooperative planning and compliant control method is presented
for multi-arm space continuous robots in target manipulation. Firstly, according to the closed …

We develop a general approach to study the equilibrium and form-finding of any general
tensegrity systems with rigid bodies. The equilibrium equations are derived in an explicit …

A dynamic motion primitive (DMP) is a robust framework that generates obstacle avoidance
trajectories by introducing perturbative terms. The perturbative term is usually constructed …

The paper presents concept of energy efficient motion control of robots and other machines
based on structures with tensegrity features and/or cable-driven mechanisms. The essence …

This study explores two fundamental problems in engineering mechanics: compression and
tension. We introduce lightweight solutions based on the tensegrity paradigm for these …

Clustered tensegrity mechanisms have elicited extensive attention in recent research due to
their easy control system and high stiffness-to-mass ratio. However, modeling and analyzing …

Tensegrity continuum robots (TCRs) are an emerging class of flexible continuum robots that
employ the tensegrity concept to achieve a natural balance of compliance and strength. The …

In order to solve the high-precision motion control problem of the n-degree-of-freedom (n-
DOF) manipulator driven by large amount of real-time data, a motion control algorithm based …
