Self - Reconfigurable Robots for Adaptive and Multifunctional Tasks
Self-reconfigurable modular robots are metamorphic systems that can autonomously change their logical or physical configurations (such as shapes, sizes, or formations), as well as their locomotion and manipulation, based on the mission and the environment in hand. Because of their modularity, versatility, self-healing ability and low cost reproducibility, such robots provide a flexible approach...
متن کاملConfined ferrofluid droplet in crossed magnetic fields.
When a ferrofluid drop is trapped in a horizontal Hele-Shaw cell and subjected to a vertical magnetic field, a fingering instability results in the droplet evolving into a complex branched structure. This fingering instability depends on the magnetic field ramp rate but also depends critically on the initial state of the droplet. Small perturbations in the initial droplet can have a large influ...
متن کاملReconfigurable Multifunctional Antennas
In this work, several reconfigurable antennas are presented and discussed. The antennas to be presented cover a wide range of designs such as fractal antennas, triangular antennas, dipoles and monopoles with variable sleeves. All these antennas make use of MEMS switches, to make them reconfigurable. Some of the challenges that the designer has to face in biasing and integrating these switches w...
متن کاملOscillating Ferrofluid Droplet Microrheology of Liquid-Immersed Sessile Droplets.
The damped oscillations of liquid-immersed ferrofluid sessile droplets were studied with high-speed imaging experiments and analytical modeling to develop a novel microrheology technique. Droplet oscillations were induced with an external magnetic field, thereby avoiding transients in the resulting vibrational response of the droplet. By following the droplet relaxation with a high-speed camera...
متن کاملModular Self-Reconfigurable Robots
Bonding mechanism A mechanism that allows modules to attach to other modules. Self-reconfigurable modules have the ability to selectively make and break attachments to other modules. Configuration The connectivity arrangement of modules in a system which describes which modules is physically attached and adjacent to which. Configuration recognition The process of automatically determining a mod...
