Optimal Tracking Control for Underactuated Airship
Abstract Background: A non-linear mathematical model of underactuated airship is derived in this paper based on Euler-Newton approach. The model is linearized with small disturbance theory, producing a linear time varying (LTV)model. The LTV model is utilized to design a linear quadratic tracking (LQT) controller.

An Adaptive Actuation Mechanism for Anthropomorphic Robot Hands
This paper presents an adaptive actuation mechanism that can be employed for the development of anthropomorphic, dexterous robot hands. The tendon-driven actuation mechanism achieves both flexion/extension and adduction/abduction on the finger's ...

On the Method of Interconnection and Damping Assignment Passivity-Based Control for the Stabilization of Mechanical Systems [PDF]
Interconnection and damping assignment passivity-based control (IDA-PBC) is an excellent method to stabilize mechanical systems in the Hamiltonian formalism. In this paper, several improvements are made on the IDA-PBC method.

Design and Validation of a Modular One-To-Many Actuator for a Soft Wearable Exosuit
The size, weight, and power consumption of soft wearable robots rapidly scale with their number of active degrees of freedom. While various underactuation strategies have been proposed, most of them impose hard constrains on the kinetics and kinematics ...
