Optimal trajectories for multi robot localization
This paper considers the problem of multi robot localization. The analysis is focused on the problem of determining which are the optimal robot trajectories in order to minimize th...

Mathematical programming models of discrete event system dynamics
Analytical models for the dynamics of some discrete event systems are introduced where the system trajectories are solutions to linear and mixed-integer programs. 1 BACKGROUND The...

An Integral Solution to Surface Evolution PDEs Via Geo-cuts
We introduce a new approach to modelling gradient flows of contours and surfaces. While standard variational methods (e.g. level sets) compute local interface motion in a different...

Mechanics of bending, torsion, and variable precurvature in multi-tube active cannulas
— Active cannulas are a relatively new continuum robot subclass characterized by their use of preshaped tubes that transmit bending moments as they slide within one another and a...

A passive 2DOF walker: Finding gait cycles using virtual holonomic constraints
— A planar compass-like biped on a shallow slope is the simplest model of a passive walker. It is a two-degrees-offreedom impulsive mechanical system known to possess periodic so...
