The paper focuses on the stiffness modeling of a new type of compliant manipulator and its non-linear behavior while interacting with the environment. The manipulator under study is a serial mechanical structure composed of dualtriangle segments. The main attention is paid to the initial straight configuration which may suddenly change its shape under the loading. It was discovered that under the external loading such manipulator may have six equilibrium configurations but only two of them are stable. In the neighborhood of these configurations, the manipulator behavior was analyzed using the Virtual Joint Method (VJM). This approach allowed us to propose an analytical technique for computing a critical force causing the buckling and evaluate the manipulator shape under the loading. A relevant simulation study confirmed the validity of the developed technique and its advantages in non-linear stiffness analysis.

The paper focuses on the mechanics of a compliant serial manipulator composed of new type of dual-triangle elastic segments. Both the analytical and numerical methods were used to find the manipulator stable and unstable equilibrium configurations, a s well as to predict corresponding manipulator shapes. The stiffness analysis was carried on for both loaded and unloaded modes, the stiffness matrices were computed using the Virtual Joint Method (VJM). The results demonstrate that either buckling or quasi-buckling phenomenon may occur under the loading, if the manipulator corresponding initial configuration is straight or non-straight one. Relevant simulation results are presented that confirm the theoretical study.
The paper focuses on the kinematics control of a compliant serial manipulator composed of a new type of dualtriangle elastic segments. Some useful optimization techniques were applied to solve the geometric redundancy problem, ensure the stability of the manipulator configurations with respect to the external forces/torques applied to the endeffector. The efficiency of the developed control algorisms is confirmed by simulation.
Tensegrity structures are lightweight, can undergo large deformations, and have outstanding robustness capabilities. These unique properties inspired roboticists to investigate their use. However, the morphological design, control, assembly, and actu ation of tensegrity robots are still difficult tasks. Moreover, the stiffness of tensegrity robots is still an underestimated design parameter. In this article, we propose to use easy to assemble, actuated tensegrity modules and body-brain co-evolution to design soft tensegrity modular robots. Moreover, we prove the importance of tensegrity robots stiffness showing how the evolution suggests a different morphology, control, and locomotion strategy according to the modules stiffness.
The paper focuses on the redundancy resolution in kinematic control of a new type of serial manipulator composed of multiple tensegrity segments, which are moving in a multi-obstacle environment. The general problem is decomposed into two sub-problem s, which deal with collision-free path planning for the robot end-effector and collision-free motion planning for the robot body. The first of them is solved via discrete dynamic programming, the second one is worked out using quadratic programming with mixed linear equality/nonequality constraints. Efficiency of the proposed technique is confirmed by simulation.
We present CoMet, a novel approach for computing a groups cohesion and using that to improve a robots navigation in crowded scenes. Our approach uses a novel cohesion-metric that builds on prior work in social psychology. We compute this metric by ut ilizing various visual features of pedestrians from an RGB-D camera on-board a robot. Specifically, we detect characteristics corresponding to proximity between people, their relative walking speeds, the group size, and interactions between group members. We use our cohesion-metric to design and improve a navigation scheme that accounts for different levels of group cohesion while a robot moves through a crowd. We evaluate the precision and recall of our cohesion-metric based on perceptual evaluations. We highlight the performance of our social navigation algorithm on a Turtlebot robot and demonstrate its benefits in terms of multiple metrics: freezing rate (57% decrease), deviation (35.7% decrease), and path length of the trajectory(23.2% decrease).
