چکیده
Locomotion of an animal is generated through interactions among the nervous system, the musculo-skeletal system and the environment. We particularly focus on biomachine hybrid systems in order to understand dynamics of these interactions. We can modify balances of the interactions by bio-machine hybrid systems. In this study, we intend to deal with a frog cyborg driven by biological muscles.

Characterization of Constrained Aged Niti Strips for Using In Artificial Muscle Actuators (Technical Note)
Marvelous bending/straightening effects of two-way shape memory alloy (TWSMA) help their employment in design and manufacturing of new medical appliances. Constrained ageing with bending load scheme can induce two-way shape memory effect (TWSME). Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis, electrical resistivity measurement (ERM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are employed to dete...
متن کاملMcKibben Artificial Muscles: Pneumatic Actuators with Biomechanical Intelligence
This paper reports on the design of a biorobotic actuator. Biological requirements are developed from published reports in the muscle physiology literature whose parameters are extracted and applied in the form of the Hill muscle model. Data from several vertebrate species (rat, frog, cat, and human) are used to evaluate the performance of a McKibben pneumatic actuator. The experimental results...
متن کاملCyborgs in the Everyday: Masculinity and Biosensing Prostate Cancer
An in vivo biosensor is a technology in development that will assess the biological activity of cancers to individualise external beam radiotherapy. Inserting such technology into the human body creates cybernetic organisms; a cyborg that is a human-machine hybrid. There is a gap in knowledge relating to patient willingness to allow automated technology to be embedded and to become cyborg. Ther...
متن کاملElectrical Stimulation of Coleopteran Muscle for Initiating Flight
Some researchers have long been interested in reconstructing natural insects into steerable robots or vehicles. However, until recently, these so-called cyborg insects, biobots, or living machines existed only in science fiction. Owing to recent advances in nano/micro manufacturing, data processing, and anatomical and physiological biology, we can now stimulate living insects to induce user-des...
متن کاملTask-space Control of Electrically Driven Robots
Actuators of robot operate in the joint-space while the end-effect or of robot is controlled in the task-space. Therefore, designing a control system for a robotic system in the task-space requires the jacobian matrix information for transforming joint-space to task-space, which suffers from uncertainties. This paper deals with the robust task-space control of electrically driven robot manipula...
