Under-Actuated Kinematic Structures for Miniature Climbing Robots
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents two biped designs for miniature climbing robots. The designs use under-actuation to satisfy space and weight constraints. In the first design, one actuator provides steering ...
Distributed Robust Control of Compliant Framed Wheeled Modular Mobile Robots
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A distributed robust controller for Compliant Framed wheeled Modular Mobile Robots (CFMMR) is studied in this paper. This type of wheeled mobile robot uses rigid axles coupled by compliant frame ...
Motion Planning for a Spherical Mobile Robot: Revisiting the Classical Ball-Plate Problem
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In comparison to wheeled robots, spherical mobile robots offer greater mobility, stability, and scope for operation in hazardous environments. Inspite of these advantages, spherical designs have ...
Design Elements of a Novel Atmospheric Flow Simulator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We present the methods, design and development of a unique atmospheric wind flow simulator that ultimately aids in adding atmospheric wind display to a virtual environment (VE). Iterative design, ...
