Numerous mobile robots in various forms specialize in either ground or aerial locomotion,
whereas very few robots can perform complex locomotion tasks beyond simple walking and …

Wheeled mobile robots (WMRs) have been a focus of research for several decades,
particularly concerning navigation strategies in static and dynamic environments. This …

Omnidirectional wheeled mobile robots (OWMRs) have gained increasingly popularity
because they can move into any direction, while their orientation can be pointed to any …

The controlled actuation of gallium liquid‐metal (LM) alloys has presented new and exciting
opportunities for constructing mobile robots with structural flexibility. However, the …

As a model is only an abstraction of the real system, unmodeled dynamics, parameter
variations, and disturbances can result in poor performance of a conventional controller …

We develop a new robust control scheme for a non-holonomic spherical robot. To this end,
the mathematical model of a pendulum driven non-holonomic spherical robot is first …

In the paper we study the control of a balanced dynamically non-symmetric sphere with
rotors. The no-slip condition at the point of contact is assumed. The algebraic controllability …

This paper presents the results of a study on the dynamical modeling, analysis, and control
of a spherical rolling robot. The rolling mechanism consists of a 2-DOF pendulum located …

One controller cannot work on multiple and unknown terrains in the velocity control of the
spherical robot, because the dynamic models of the robot vary on different terrains, and …

The typical dynamic path following method presents a systematic framework for
nonholonomic mobile robot and exhibits excellent tracking performance in simulations and …
