Abstract:
Behavior design with rich sensor information is very important in realizing close interaction using whole-body contact. Our research target is to construct behavior design method taking into account the mutual interaction between a robot’s tactile sensor information and its motion trajectories. In this paper, a behavior acquisition framework using an evolutionary technique is constructed based on a dynamics simulation model including the emulation of tactile sensing. Furthermore, acquired rolling-over motions are tested using an actual humanoid “macra” with soft sensor flesh, and the results a

Abstract:
To improve the soft-landing crash performance of the movable lander (ML), this study presents an investigation of a newly designed gradual energy-absorbing structure subjected to impact loads using an ML for theoretical calculation and numerical simulations. In this work, we present a novel computational approach to optimizing the energy absorption (EA) of the ML. Our framework takes as inputting the geometrical parameter (GP) as well as EA. The finite element model of the HB1, HB2, and HB3 was established and effectively verified using numerical simulation and experimental data. The relations

Abstract:
Continuum manipulators, inspired by nature, have drawn significant interest within the robotics community. They can facilitate motion within complex environments where traditional rigid robots may be ineffective, while maintaining a reasonable degree of precision. Soft continuum manipulators have emerged as a growing subfield of continuum robotics, with promise for applications requiring high compliance, including certain medical procedures. This has driven demand for new control schemes designed to precisely control these highly flexible manipulators, whose kinematics may be sensitive to exte

Abstract:
In this paper, we present an efficient finite element framework for modeling the finite deformations of slender magneto-active elastomers (MAE) under applied magnetic fields or currents. For the convenience of numerical modeling, magnetic field is defined at fixed spatial coordinates in the background space rather than in the elastic MAEs using material coordinates. The magnetic field will vary with free or localized currents while the spatial distribution of the magnetic field will evolve with the motion or deformation of the MAE materials, which is actuated by the surface or body forces indu

Abstract:
Two approaches are commonly used for handling frictional contact within the framework of the discrete element method (DEM). One relies on the complementarity method (CM) to enforce a nonpenetration condition and the Coulomb dry-friction model at the interface between two bodies in mutual contact. The second approach, called the penalty method (PM), invokes an elasticity argument to produce a frictional contact force that factors in the local deformation and relative motion of the bodies in contact. We give a brief presentation of a DEM-PM contact model that includes multi-time-step tangential

Abstract:
Modeling soft robots is not an easy task owing to their highly nonlinear mechanical behavior. So far, several researchers have tackled the problem using different approaches, each having advantages and drawbacks in terms of accuracy, ease of implementation, and computational burden. The soft robotics community is currently working to develop a unified framework for modeling. Our contribution in this direction consists of a novel dimensionless quantity that we call the softness distribution index (SDI). The SDI for a given soft body is computed based on the distribution of its structural proper

Abstract:
AbstractIn this contribution, we present a framework for the multiscale modeling and simulation of magneto-active elastomers (MAEs). It enables us to consider these materials on the microscopic scale, where the heterogeneous microstructure consisting of magnetizable particles and elastomer matrix is explicitly resolved, as well as the macroscopic scale, where the MAE is considered to be a homogeneous magneto-active body. On both scales, a general continuum formulation of the coupled magneto-mechanical boundary value problem is applied and the finite element method is used to solve the governin

Abstract:
AbstractDielectric elastomer actuators (DEA) have been demonstrated to exhibit a quasi-immediate electro-mechanical actuation response with relatively large deformation capability. The properties of DEA make them suitable to be used in the form of major active components within soft robotics and biomimetic artificial muscles. However, some of the electro-active material properties impose limitations on its applications. Therefore, researchers attempt to modify the structure of the homogeneous DEA material by the incorporation of fillers that possess distinct electro-mechanical properties. This

Abstract:
The ambulatory assessment of vocal function can be significantly enhanced by having access to physiologically based features that describe underlying pathophysiological mechanisms in individuals with voice disorders. This type of enhancement can improve methods for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of behaviorally based voice disorders. Unfortunately, the direct measurement of important vocal features such as subglottal pressure, vocal fold collision pressure, and laryngeal muscle activation is impractical in laboratory and ambulatory settings.

Men in crisis Confused by society's mixed messages about what's expected of them as boys, and later as men, many feel a sadness and disconnection they cannot even name. (Pollack 1) The recent 'crisis in masculinity' has been punctuated by a plethora of material devoted to reclaiming men's 'lost' power within a society. Triggered by the recognition that their roles within our society are changing, this emerging cannon often fails to recognise men as part of a social continuum that subjectifies individuals within discursive frameworks. Rather it mourns this process as the emasculation of male id

The field of surgery is continually evolving as there is always room for improvement in the post-operative health of the patient as well as the comfort of the Operating Room (OR) team. While the success of surgery is contingent upon the skills of the surgeon and the OR team, the use of specialized robots has shown to improve surgery-related outcomes in some cases. These outcomes are currently measured using a wide variety of metrics that include patient pain and recovery, surgeon’s comfort, duration of the operation and the cost of the procedure.
