In off-road applications, where mobile robots operate on rough environments, the physical properties of the terrain play a key role on their performance. An extreme example is posed by planetary rover missions to Mars, for which communication constraints and the inability of vision-based approaches to detect non-geometric hazards, e.g. sand traps hidden below thin duricrusts, can lead to permanent...
The class of Pneumatically-driven Low-pressure Soft Actuators (PLSA) is a popular choice potentially used in the surgical robotic applications. One fundamental problem lying in the PLSA research is the lack of a generally validated model for the complex nonlinear dynamic behaviours. In this paper, a unified identification approach for the general PLSAs is proposed. It is a parameter-independent way...
The class of Pneumatically-driven Lower-pressure Soft Actuators (PLSA) is a popular research topic as it can be potentially used in the surgical robotic applications. One fundamental problem lying in the PLSA research is the lack of a generally validated model for the complex nonlinear dynamic behaviours. In this paper, a new coefficient-adaptive orthonormal basis function model structure is specifically...
