Decentralized control for harmonic drive–based modular and reconfigurable robots with uncertain environment contact

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2017
In this article, a decentralized control strategy is presented for harmonic drive–based modular and reconfigurable robots with uncertain environment contact. Unlike conventional methods that rely on robot–environment contact model or force/torque sensing,

A characterization of the reconfiguration space of self-reconfiguring robotic systems [PDF]

open access: yesRobotica, 2011
SUMMARYMotion planning for self-reconfiguring robots can be made efficient by exploiting potential reductions to suitably large subspaces. However, there are no general techniques for identifying suitable restrictions that have a positive effect on planning efficiency.

A reconfiguration strategy for Reconfigurable Cable-Driven Parallel Robots [PDF]

open access: yes2015 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2015
This paper deals with Reconfigurable Cable-Driven Parallel Robots (RCDPRs). A RCDPR is able to change the locations of its cable exit points, the latter being defined as the connection points between the cables and the robot base frame. Given a RCDPR, a set of possible reconfigurations, a desired platform path and a description of the robot environment,

Entropy‐Driven Design of Low‐Melting‐Point Alloys via Compositionally Complex Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Conventional low‐melting‐point alloys (LMPAs) are limited by a narrow compositional space and inherent property trade‐offs. This review presents an entropy‐driven design strategy that overcomes these limitations, ushering in a new class of low‐melting‐point compositionally complex alloys (LMCCAs).
