this paper presents simplified hydrodynamics model for a biomimetic robot fish based on quantitative morphological and kinematic parameters of crangiform fish. the motion of four pangasius sanitwongsei with different length and swimming speed were recorded by the digital particle image velocimetry (dpiv) and image processing methods and optimal coefficients of the motion equations and appropria...

this paper aims to discuss the requirements of safe and smooth trajectory planning of transporter mobile robots to perform non-prehensile object manipulation task. in non-prehensile approach, the robot and the object must keep their grasp-less contact during manipulation task. to this end, dynamic grasp concept is employed for a box manipulation task and corresponding conditions are obtained an...

recently a method has been developed to decouple the equations of motion for multi-rigid body systems. in this paper, the method is first studied, then the equations of motion for a planar two degree-of-freedom robot with flexible joints are carried out using lagaranges equations and kanes equation with congruency transformations. finally, the results obtained from both methods are throroughly ...

in this paper, an optimal adaptive fuzzy integral sliding mode control is presented to control the robot manipulator position tracking in the presence of uncertainties and permanent magnet dc motor. in the proposed control, sliding surface of the sliding mode control is defined according to the information of position tracking error, derivatives, and error integral. in order to estimate bounds ...

This paper, proposes a methodology to implement a suitable nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller associated with the output feedback control to achieve a successful trajectory tracking of a non-holonomic wheeled mobile robot in presence of longitudinal and lateral slip accompanied. This implementation offers a relatively faster and high precision tracking performance. We investigate this...

In a robotic soccer team, goalkeeper is an important challenging role, which has different characteristics from the other teammates. This paper proposes a new learning-based behavior model for a soccer goalkeeper robot by using Petri nets. The model focuses on modeling and analyzing, both qualitatively and quantitatively, for the goalkeeper role so that we have a model-based knowledge of the ta...
