Evolutionary approaches to robot path planning

open access: yes, 1999
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.The ultimate goal in robotics is to create machines which are more independent and rely less on humans to guide them in their operation.

A Numerical–Experimental Approach for Multi‐Matrix Fiber‐Reinforced Plastics Characterization Using Finite Element Model Updating

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical–experimental framework is developed for characterizing multi‐matrix fiber‐reinforced polymers (MM‐FRPs) combining epoxy and polyurethane matrices. Harmonic bending tests are integrated with finite element model updating (FEMU) to simultaneously identify elastic and viscoelastic material parameters.

Additive Gaussian Process Regression for Predictive Design of High‐Performance, Printable Silicones

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A chemistry‐aware design framework for tuning printable polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) for vat photopolymerization (VPP) is developed using additive Gaussian process (GP) modeling. Polymer network mechanics informs variable groupings, feasible formulation constraints, and interaction variables.

Predictor-based LOS guidance law for path following of underactuated marine surface vehicles with sideslip compensation

open access: yes, 2016
This paper presents a novel predictor-based line-of-sight (PLOS) guidance law for the path following of underactuated marine surface vehicles. A predictor is developed for the estimation of vehicle sideslip due to environmental disturbances. The proposed

LOS Path Following for Underactuated Underwater Vehicle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this paper, we propose a control scheme for path following of underactuated underwater vehicles. In particular, we propose a guidance law based on the the well-known principle of Line of Sight (LOS) guidance that is applicable to path following of any

Adaptive Path Following for an Underactuated Nonholonomic Mobile Manipulator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We investigate an adaptive path following problem for an underactuated nonholonomic mobile manipulator system and closed planar curves. As opposed to adapting to uncertain or unknown dynamics in the plant, we apply an adaptation approach with respect to ...

Thermodynamic Pathways of Nonequilibrium Solidification in Wire‐Arc Additive Manufacturing Fe‐Based Multicomponent Alloy Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Geometry‐driven thermal behavior in wire‐arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) influences microstructural evolution during nonequilibrium solidification of a chemically complex Fe–Cr–Nb–W–Mo–C nanocomposite system. By comparing different deposits configurations, distinct entropy–cooling rate correlations, segregation, and carbide evolution are revealed ...
