This paper presents a new method to produce computationally efficient models of robots that have planar elastic flexure joints. An accurate, low-dimensional model of large deformation bending is ...

Scientists have developed a new type of electronic "skin" that could give robots the ability to "feel" different tactile ...

In robot control, accurate modeling of joint friction behavior contributes to enhancing friction compensation, which is important for robust torque control of robots. In this paper, a nonlinear ...
