Design of large-span stick-slip freely switchable hydrogels via dynamic multiscale contact synergy.

Nature communications
Solid matter that can rapidly and reversibly switch between adhesive and non-adhesive states is desired in many technological domains including climbing robotics, actuators, wound dressings, and bioelectronics due to the ability for on-demand attachm...

Robust prediction of force chains in jammed solids using graph neural networks.

Nature communications
Force chains are quasi-linear self-organised structures carrying large stresses and are ubiquitous in jammed amorphous materials like granular materials, foams or even cell assemblies. Predicting where they will form upon deformation is crucial to de...

Locomotion of an untethered, worm-inspired soft robot driven by a shape-memory alloy skeleton.

Scientific reports
Soft, worm-like robots show promise in complex and constrained environments due to their robust, yet simple movement patterns. Although many such robots have been developed, they either rely on tethered power supplies and complex designs or cannot mo...

A minimally designed soft crawling robot for robust locomotion in unstructured pipes.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Soft robots have attracted increasing attention due to their excellent versatility and broad applications. In this article, we present a minimally designed soft crawling robot (SCR) capable of robust locomotion in unstructured pipes with various geom...

The Use of Deep Learning Model for Effect Analysis of Conventional Friction Power Confinement.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Nonlinear friction could affect the high-precision motion system, resulting in poor tracking accuracy in the end. This is due to the fact that the Lugre friction model's parameter identification process comprises both static and dynamic parameter ide...

Development of a Robot Arm Link System Embedded with a Three-Axis Sensor with a Simple Structure Capable of Excellent External Collision Detection.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In order to effectively detect the contact state between the operator and the collaborative robot, a sensor with excellent external force detection performance is needed. The existing force/torque sensor and joint torque sensor, which are the two mai...

Comparative Analysis of Machine Learning Methods for Predicting Robotized Incremental Metal Sheet Forming Force.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This paper proposes a method for extracting information from the parameters of a single point incremental forming (SPIF) process. The measurement of the forming force using this technology helps to avoid failures, identify optimal processes, and to i...

Robust fuzzy sliding mode controller for a skid-steered vehicle subjected to friction variations.

PloS one
Skid-steered vehicles (SSV) are gaining huge importance in the market due to their applications like construction, agricultural work, material handling etc. The accuracy of performing such tasks require a robust control algorithm. The design of such ...

Optimization of running-in surface morphology parameters based on the AutoML model.

PloS one
Running-in is an important and relatively complicated process. The surface morphology prior to running-in affects the surface morphology following the running-in process, which in turn influences the friction and wear characteristics of the workpiece...

Fault-tolerant scheme for robotic manipulator-Nonlinear robust back-stepping control with friction compensation.

PloS one
Emerging applications of autonomous robots requiring stability and reliability cannot afford component failure to achieve operational objectives. Hence, identification and countermeasure of a fault is of utmost importance in mechatronics community. T...
