Neural Models and Algorithms for Sensorimotor Control of an Octopus Arm [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
In this article, a biophysically realistic model of a soft octopus arm with internal musculature is presented. The modeling is motivated by experimental observations of sensorimotor control where an arm localizes and reaches a target. Major contributions of this article are: (i) development of models to capture the mechanical properties of arm ...

Soft Arm-Motor Thrust Characterization for a Pneumatically Actuated Soft Morphing Quadrotor [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
In this work, an experimental characterization of the configuration space of a soft, pneumatically actuated morphing quadrotor is presented, with a focus on precise thrust characterization of its flexible arms, considering the effect of downwash.

Taking ambiguity seriously: Explaining the indeterminacy of the European Union conventional arms export control regime

open access: yes, 2016
The reduction of ambiguous language is a commonly proposed strategy to remedy non-compliance with international obligations. The European Union conventional arms export control regime is a case in point; here, eliminating ambiguity has stood at the ...

Developing Empirical Insights into Irreversibility in Nuclear Arms Control and Disarmament

open access: yesJournal for Peace and Nuclear Disarmament
This second special issue on nuclear irreversibility shifts the focus from the conceptual to the empirical. It aims to explore how dynamics linked to irreversibility have played out in practice by examining arms control and disarmament efforts in South ...

Arm Robot: AR-Enhanced Embodied Control and Visualization for Intuitive Robot Arm Manipulation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Embodied interaction has been introduced to human-robot interaction (HRI) as a type of teleoperation, in which users control robot arms with bodily action via handheld controllers or haptic gloves. Embodied teleoperation has made robot control intuitive to non-technical users, but differences between humans' and robots' capabilities \eg ranges of ...
