Improving the Robustness of Visual Teach‐and‐Repeat Navigation Using Drift Error Correction and Event‐Based Vision for Low‐Light Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Visual teach‐and‐repeat (VTR) navigation allows robots to learn and follow routes without building a full metric map. We show that navigation accuracy for VTR can be improved by integrating a topological map with error‐drift correction based on stereo vision.

Numerical Modeling of Photothermal Self‐Excited Composite Oscillators

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We present a numerical framework for simulating photothermal self‐excited oscillations. The driving mechanism is elucidated by highlighting the roles of inertia and overshoot, as well as the phase lag between the thermal moment and the oscillation angle, which together construct the feedback loop between the system state and the environmental stimulus.

Improving the Accuracy of Fault Frequency by Means of Local Mean Decomposition and Ratio Correction Method for Rolling Bearing Failure

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
The fault frequencies are as they are and cannot be improved. One can only improve its estimation quality. This paper proposes a fault diagnosis method by combining local mean decomposition (LMD) and the ratio correction method to process the short-time ...

Experimental and numerical investigation on the dynamic failure envelope and cracking mechanism of precompressed rock under compression-shear loads

open access: yes, 2021
The complex response of underground geomaterials subjected to dynamic disturbance arises from the microstructure redistribution under high in- situ stress and the resulting fracture behaviors at multiaxial stress states.

Universal Gripper for Industrial Manipulation With Enhanced Rigid Mechanics and Self‐Adaptable Fingers

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
An enhanced universal gripper combining rigid mechanics with self‐adaptable fingers is presented for industrial automation. The novel six‐bar linkage with integrated compliant pad eliminates mechanical interference while enabling passive shape adaptation.

Omni first-ply-failure envelopes — A conservative approach to assess laminate failure [PDF]

open access: yesComposites Part C: Open Access
Omni first-ply-failure (FPF) envelopes are an elegant yet conservative approach to assess composite laminate failure on a global level. Omni envelopes can be found increasingly in recent publications. However, the development process of those envelopes shows a lack of clarity.

DRIVE‐SAFE: Data‐Driven Robustness and Informed Validation for Evolving Specifications via Formal Evaluation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
DRIVE‐SAFE evaluates learning‐based, black‐box autonomous driving policies against evolving temporal safety requirements using Signal Temporal Logic robustness metrics. It aggregates distributional robustness measures with domain‐informed weights to guide iterative retraining.

Failure criteria for C/SiC composites under plane stress state

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2014
The applicability and limitation of several quadratic strength theories were investigated with respect to 2D-C/SiC and 2.5D-C/SiC composites. A kind of damage-based failure criterion, referred to as D-criterion, is proposed for nonlinear ceramic ...

Shear failure in rock using different constant normal load

open access: yes, 1999
SEILDEL – HABERFIELD’s [1] work was based on the analysis of the regular triangular asperities and assumed that the asperities were rigid. They used normal stiffness shear stress (CNS) to measure the joint dilatation rate and extended the LADANYI ...

Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard): An Aerial Robotic Swarm for Autonomous Detection and Entrapment of Rogue Multirotors

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard) is introduced as a four‐drone swarm that autonomously detects, tracks, and safely captures rogue drones using a coordinated net system. Computer vision and leader–follower control architecture enable synchronized enclosure, while integrated failsafes enhance system reliability. Validated through closed‐environment
