The companion paper [2] derives an algorithm that determines the external wrenches consistent with constraints on the contact interactions between two rigid planar bodies. In this...

The contribution of this paper is the expansion of the range of possibilities in the analysis, planning, and control of contact tasks. The successful execution of any contact task...
We describe a programmable apparatus that uses a vibrating surface for sensorless, nonprehensile manipulation, where parts are systematically positioned and oriented without sensor...
We presentthe first configurationspacecomputationalgorithm for pairs of rigid parts that move along fixed spatial axes. The motivation is contactanalysisformechanical design of sp...
While most previous work in planning manipulation tasks relies on the assumption of quasi-static conditions, there can be situations where the quasi-static assumption may not hold...
