RISMobility Analysis of a Spoked Walking Machine With Variable Topologies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, the concept of the Intelligent Mobility Platform with Active Spoke System (IMPASS) is introduced in the first place as an alternative locomotive method that allows for multiple ...
Operation and Kinematic Analysis of a Cam-Based Infinitely Variable Transmission
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, the operation and analysis of a novel, highly configurable, infinitely variable transmission of the ratcheting drive type is presented. This particular drive uses a cam and a ...
Triple Stance Phase Displacement Analysis With Redundant and Nonredundant Sensing in a Novel Three-Legged Mobile Robot Using Parallel Kinematics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the forward and inverse displacement analysis of a novel three-legged walking robot Self-excited Tripedal Dynamic Experimental Robot (STriDER) in its triple stance phase. STriDER ...
Twelve Degree of Freedom Baby Humanoid Head Using Shape Memory Alloy Actuators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A biped mountable robotic baby head was developed using a combination of Biometal fiber and Flexinol shape memory alloy actuators (SMAs). SMAs were embedded in the skull and connected to the ...
Parametric Design Optimization of Uncertain Ordinary Differential Equation Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work presents a novel optimal design framework that treats uncertain dynamical systems described by ordinary differential equations. Uncertainty in multibody dynamical systems comes from various ...
