Soft Robots Using Compliant Tensegrity Structures and Soft Sensors
Tensegrity structures, isolated solid rods connected by tensile cables, are of interest in the field of soft robotics due to their flexible and robust nature. This makes them suitable for uneven and unpredictable environments in which traditional robots struggle. The compliant structure also ensures that the robot will not injure humans or delicate equipment in co-robotic applications [1]. A 6-...
متن کاملVibration Attenuation Timoshenko Beam Based on Optimal Placement Sensors/Actuators PZT Patches with LQR-MOPSO
The main objective of this study is to reduce optimal vibration suppression of Timoshenko beam under non-periodic step and impulse inputs. Cantilever beam was modeled by Timoshenko theory and finite element numerical method. Stiffness (K), mass (M), and damping (C) matrices are extracted. Then, in order to control structure vibration, piezoelectric patches were used due to simultaneous dual beh...
متن کاملSmart Materials, Precision Sensors/Actuators,Smart Structures, and Structronic Systems
Many electroactive functional materials have been used in smalland microscale transducers and precision mechatronic control systems for years. It was not until the mid-1980s that scientists started integrating electroactive materials with large-scale structures as in situ sensors and/or actuators, thus introducing the concept of smart materials, smart structures, and structronic systems. This p...
متن کاملAn Approach to Compliant Locomotion Systems Based on Tensegrity Structures
Tensegrity structures are prestressed compliant structures composed of a set of disconnected rigid compressed elements connected by continuous prestressed tensional elements. A spatially limited, local impact on tensegrity structures yields a global change of their shape. This essential property initiates the development of novel compliant locomotion systems with large shape variability and sim...
متن کاملNew Endoscopic Imaging Technology Based on MEMS Sensors and Actuators
Over the last decade, optical fiber-based forms of microscopy and endoscopy have extended the realm of applicability for many imaging modalities. Optical fiber-based imaging modalities permit the use of remote illumination sources and enable flexible forms supporting the creation of portable and hand-held imaging instrumentations to interrogate within hollow tissue cavities. A common challenge ...
