Development Environment for Optimized Locomotion System of Planetary Rovers [PDF]
, 2011 This paper addresses the first steps that have been undergone to set up the development environement w.r.t optimization and to modelling and simulation of overall dynamics of the rover driving behaviour under all critical surface terrains, like soft and ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Invasive gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have replaced the native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) across much of Great Britain over the last century. Several factors have been proposed to underlie this replacement, but here we investigated the potential for dietary competition in which gray squirrels have better feeding performance than ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Modeling Stiffness and Damping in Rotational Degrees of Freedom Using Multibond Graphs [PDF]
, 2013 A contribution is proposed for the modeling of mechanical systems using multibond graphs. When modeling a physical system, it may be needed to catch the dynamic behavior contribution of the joints between bodies of the system and therefore to ...

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In recent years, learning robot manipulator dynamics with deep networks has been extensively studied, as it avoids deriving the analytical expression of the robot dynamics equations. In particular, deep Lagrangian networks that incorporate the prior knowledge of Lagrangian mechanics into the deep networks have shown prominent advantages in ...

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.Optimal control combines state and adjoint equations, which yield the state (x$$ x $$) and adjoint (lambda) variables as a function of the control variables (u$$ u $$). This structure allows us to design strategies for iteratively updating the control variable, based on conjugate gradient (CG) or GMRES algorithms.

Control design for an under-actuated UAV model [PDF]
FME Transactions, 2018 Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), are increasingly being adapted and used in civil contexts, with particular specialization in the monitoring of the territory for environmental purposes, civil protection or possibly control and inspection of inaccessible ...

Multibody Dynamics Model of a Human Hand for Haptics Interaction [PDF]
, 2008 In this paper we propose a strategy for modelling a human hand for Haptics interaction. The strategy consists in a parallel computing architecture that calculates the dynamics of a hand; this is accomplished by computing the dynamics of each finger in a ...
