Multiobjective Codesign Optimization of a Planar Pneumatic Artificial Muscle‐Based Snake‐Like Robot for Enhanced Agility and Energy Efficiency

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

A Method for Service Agile Construction

Anais do X Simpósio Brasileiro de Sistemas de Informação (SBSI 2014), 2014
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and agile methods share common drivers. However, there is a lack of guidelines a SOA team should pursue in order to develop services considering best practices, acceptance tests, distributed teams, contract refactoring, among other issues related to SOA principles and agile practices.

Assessing agile methods: an empirical study [PDF]

Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society, 2004
Abstract Agile software processes emerged to address the issue of building software on time and within the planned budget. To adopt an agile process, it is imperative to analyze and evaluate its effectiveness in supporting high quality software development while complying with stringent time constraints.

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.
