Non-smooth 3D Modeling of a Snake Robot with External Obstacles
Abstract— In this paper we extend a non-smooth 3D mathematical model of a snake robot to also include external obstacles to enable obstacle aided locomotion. The model is based o...

On the Form-Closure of Polygonal Objects with Frictional and Frictionless Contact Models
This paper investigates the problem of "formclosure"for three-fingered grasps of polygonal objects under various combinations of contact models at the contact points. We...

A hard-constraint time-stepping approach for rigid multibody dynamics with joints, contact, and friction
We present a method for simulating rigid multibody dynamics with joints, contact, and friction. In this work, the nonsmooth contact and frictional constraints are represented by h...

Tire model for simulations of vehicle motion on high and low friction road surfaces
An on-road analytical tire model has been developed to predict tire forces and moments at the tire/road interface. The model is computationally efficient and it only requires a li...
