cooperative object manipulation control of rigid-flexible multi-body systems in space is studied in this paper. during such tasks, flexible members like solar panels may get vibrated that in turn may lead to some oscillatory disturbing forces on other subsystems, and consequently produces error in the motion of the end-effectors of the cooperative manipulating arms. therefore, to design and dev...

this research focuses on proposing an optimal trajectory planning and control method of two link rigid-flexible manipulators (tlrfm) for dynamic object manipulation (dom) missions. for the first time, achievement of dom task using a rotating one flexible link robot was taken into account in [20]. the authors do not aim to contribute on either trajectory tracking or vibration control of the end-...

In recent years an effort has been made to supplement traditional methods for drug discovery by computer-assisted “structure-based design.” The structure-based approach involves (among other issues) reasoning about the geometry of drug molecules (or ligands) and about the different spatial conformations that these molecules can attain. This is a preliminary report on a set of tools that we are ...

This paper addresses issue of flexible object manipulation by using robot arms. The main objective is to establish a suitable control system of the robot for performing flexible object manipulation tasks. A force sensor equipped at the wrist of the robot arm is used to measure the vibration of the flexible object. A vibration control scheme is designed based on linear feedback of vibration meas...
