Suitable representations of dynamical systems can simplify their analysis and control. On this line of thought, this article aims to answer the following question: Can a transformation of the generalized coordinates under which the actuators directly perform work on a subset of the configuration...

We address the time-optimal, rest-to-rest motion problem under bounded control for a two-mass system interconnected by a visco-elastic joint. A complete geometric solution has recently been found in [1] for the purely elastic case, exploiting symmetries that are lost with the introduction of...

AbstractIn this seminar an overview will be given of the ERC AdG PortWings project and its achievements. The overview will first describe the initial goal and the context in which the project came to existence, and then will give attention to the various aspects of...

Model-based strategies are a promising solution to the grand challenge of equipping continuum soft robots with motor intelligence. However, finite-dimensional models of these systems are inherently inaccurate, thus posing pressing robustness concerns. Moreover, the actuation space of soft robots is...

Accurate trajectory tracking in the task space is critical in many robotics applications. Model-based robot controllers are able to ensure very good tracking but lose effectiveness in the presence of model uncertainties. On the other hand, online learning-based control laws can handle poor dynamic...
