Abstract: The method of recursive quadratic programming, coupled with a homotopy method, has been used to generate approximate minimum-time and minimum tracking-error tip trajectories for two-link flexible ...

Abstract: This work has developed a new robust and reliable O(N) algorithm for solving general inequality/equality constrained minimum-time problems. To our knowledge, no one has ever applied an O(N) ...

Abstract: Experimental verification of minimum time, straight-line tracking using a two-link planar flexible robot is presented. Previously reported minimum-time angle histories are precompensated to account ...

Abstract: A control algorithm has been developed and experimentally validated for guiding swarms of robotic vehicles to acoustic targets. This novel algorithm uses pressure measurements from a set of ...
