In rehabilitation robotics, optimizing energy consumption and high interaction forces is essential to prevent unnecessary muscle fatigue and excessive joint loading as they often cause an inefficient trajectory planning and disrupt natural movement p...
In order to ensure optimal performance of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) across many technical applications, it is imperative to minimize torque fluctuations and reduce total harmonic distortion (THD) in stator currents. Hence, this stud...
Although legged robots have demonstrated effective mobility in some natural settings, as robot size decreases, obstacles in their environment become challenging to overcome. Small arthropods scale obstacles many times their size through jumps powered...
The hydraulic-driven lower limb exoskeleton robot (HDLLER) can provide excellent assistance during human walking. However, complex torque coupling disturbances exist between each joint, negatively impacting the precise torque tracking of each joint c...
Robot-assisted isokinetic training has been widely adopted for knee rehabilitation. However, existing rehabilitation facilities are often heavy, bulky, and extremely energy-consuming, which limits the rehabilitation opportunities only at designated h...
The global production of biodiesel in 2023 amounted to 34 billion liters because compression ignition engines need environmentally friendly fuel alternatives. The research investigates Annona biodiesel in combination with machine learning (ML) and ST...
