State-Space Basins for Monopedal Jumping With Stable Landing
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2024)Maintaining stability in jumping robots remains a challenge due to their hybrid dynamics. Despite recent advances, existing research lacks a clear definition and comprehensive criteria for jumping stability. To address ... -
Design and Kinematic Analysis of a Novel Series-Parallel Hybrid Finger for Robotic Hands
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2024)In this paper, we present a novel three-degree-of-freedom (3-DoF) series-parallel hybrid mechanism for a robotic finger that is capable of abduction/adduction and flexion/extension. The series-parallel fingers proposed in ... -
Motion Planning for Nonprehensile Object Manipulation Using Novel 5-Bar Linkage
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2024)Nonprehensile manipulation is a concept of performing a manipulation task without the need for grasping and is a common mechanism found in nature, such as the dung beetle, to manipulate large and heavy objects across an ... -
Designing Multi-axis Compliant Mechanisms With Lockable Decoupled Inputs: A Tip–Tilt Case Study
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2024)This research is about designing multi-degree-of-freedom (multi-DOF) compliant mechanisms with decoupled inputs that can be independently locked/unlocked using bistable switches to achieve different combinations of DOFs. ... -
Friction Consumption and Leakage Performance of Step Piston in a Novel Synchronous Lubrication Radial Piston Pump
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2025)To alleviate the wear caused by insufficient lubrication of the slipper and piston pair due to the expansion of the piston pump speed range, a novel synchronous lubrication structure with step piston was proposed, which ... -
Presenting Hackathon Data for Design Research: A Transcript Dataset
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2025)Hackathons are intensive design experiences during which teams identify a problem and rapidly develop prototypes of solutions. These events offer a promising venue for studying collaborative design: they are naturalistic, ... -
