In this work, we present a new method for the design of heat flux manipulating devices, with emphasis on their fabricability. The design is obtained as solution of a nonlinear optimization problem where the objective ...

A robot that will execute everyday object manip- ulation tasks needs a competent body that can handle as many different objects as possible in as many ways as possible. To accomplish this, we must design the robot body ...

This paper proposes a control scheme for a stable teleoperation of non-holonomic mobile manipulator robots. This configuration presents high-coupled dynamics and motion redundancy. The problem approached in this work is ...

The biomechanics of the sacroiliac joint makes the pelvic segment responsible for proper weight distribution between lower extremities; however, it is known to be susceptible to altered mobility. The objective of this study ...

This work consists of studying the robust control of robotic manipulators with flexible joints, specifically a planar and serial manipulator with two degrees of freedom and joint flexibility. The main objective of this ...

The ABE (acetone, butanol, ethanol) fermentation is characterized by its low productivity. In this paper, this issue is overcome with an innovative industrial process that employs the flash fermentation technology. The ...

Coherent control of quantum states has been demonstrated in a variety of superconducting devices. In all of these devices, the variables that are manipulated are collective electromagnetic degrees of freedom: charge, ...

This paper presents a novel strategy for delayed bilateral teleoperation of mobile manipulator robots. The strategy is based on the hypothesis that if the slave robot behaves similarly as the operator would do to the same ...

In this work, we present a new method for the design of heat flux manipulating devices, with emphasis on their manufacturability. The design is obtained as solution of a nonlinear optimization problem where the objective ...
