Stick–Slip Friction of PDMS Surfaces for Bioinspired Adhesives

open access: yes, 2016
Friction plays an important role in the adhesion of many climbing organisms, such as the gecko. During the shearing between two surfaces, periodic stick–slip behavior is often observed and may be critical to the adhesion of gecko setae and gecko-inspired

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Mechanical behavior and micro-crack propagation mode of fault stick–slip under various roughness conditions

open access: yesGeomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources
Characterized by depressions and elevations, the rough surfaces of faults are prone to stress concentration and energy accumulation, leading to localized rupture in the upper and lower blocks. These regions are more susceptible to stick–slip instability,

Friction and stick-slip in a telescope construction

open access: yes, 1986
Stick-slip in high resolution telescopes should be avoided. The contact places where stick-slip can occur are described. Some contact places require a high friction coefficient, others a low friction coefficient. Some experiments have been carried out to

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.

Methods for Preventing Stick-Slip

open access: yesTransactions of the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, 1969
In this report, methods to restrain stick-slip in a hydraulic driving system are described. The acceleration feedback method is theoretically and experimentally verified to be very effective for the restriction of stick-slip. In addition, the transient velocity feedback method is found as effective as the acceleration feedback and more practical with ...

Data‐Driven Bulldozer Blade Control for Autonomous Terrain Leveling

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A simulation‐driven framework for autonomous bulldozer leveling is presented, combining high‐fidelity terramechanics simulation with a neural‐network‐based reduced‐order model. Gradient‐based optimization enables efficient, low‐level blade control that balances leveling quality and operation time.
