Pushing with Soft Robotic Arms via Deep Reinforcement Learning
Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2024.Soft robots can adaptively interact with unstructured environments. Reinforcement learning‐based controllers that leverage continuum mechanics are promising for solving complex interaction tasks. A closed‐loop pose and force control policy for a dexterous soft manipulator enabling dynamic pushing tasks is trained in simulation. The sim‐to‐real transfer

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 48-62, March 2024.Abstract Compliant mechanisms with curved flexure hinges/beams have potential advantages of small spaces, low stress levels, and flexible design parameters, which have attracted considerable attention in precision engineering, metamaterials, robotics, and so forth. However, serial–parallel configurations with curved flexure hinges/beams often lead to a

Kinetostatic-model-based stiffness analysis of Exechon PKM [PDF]
Robotics and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing, 2016 As a comparative newly-invented PKM with over-constraints in kinematic chains, the Exechon has attracted extensive attention from the research society. Different from the well-recognized kinematics analysis, the research on the stiffness characteristics of the Exechon still remains as a challenge due to the structural complexity.

The Kinetostatic Optimization of a Novel Prismatic Drive
CoRR, 2007 The design of a mechanical transmission taking into account the transmitted forces is reported in this paper. This transmission is based on Slide-o-Cam, a cam mechanism with multiple rollers mounted on a common translating follower. The design of Slide-o-Cam, a transmission intended to produce a sliding motion from a turning drive, or vice versa, was ...

KINETOSTATICS OF A NON-AXISYMMETRIC WEDGE
The equations of kinetostatics are compiled and the reaction forces of constraints of a non-axisymmetric (triangular) wedge are determined according to the d'Alembert principle. A mathematical expression is obtained for the reaction force of the kinetostatics problem of a non-axisymmetric wedge under the action of a non-constant force.

Kinetostatic Analysis and Solution Classification of a Planar Tensegrity Mechanism [PDF]
, 2017 Tensegrity mechanisms have several interesting properties that make them suitable for a number of applications. Their analysis is generally challenging because the static equilibrium conditions often result in complex equations. A class of planar one-degree-of-freedom (dof) tensegrity mechanisms with three linear springs is analyzed in detail in this ...
