Compliant Robot Actuation by Feedforward Controlled Emulated Spring Stiffness
Abstract. Existing legged robots lack energy-efficiency, performance and adaptivity when confronted with situations that animals cope with on a routine basis. Bridging the gap bet...

Multiagent Control of Self-Reconfigurable Robots
We demonstrate how multiagent systems provide useful control techniques for modular self-reconfigurable (metamorphic) robots. Such robots consist of many modules that can move rel...

Robust control of polytopic systems by convex optimization
— Robust control synthesis of linear time-invariant SISO polytopic systems is investigated using the polynomial approach. A convex set of all stabilizing controllers for a polyto...

NURBS Fairing by Knot Vector Optimization
The shape of a NURBS curve or patch is defined by the location of its control points, the weights associated with these points, and the parameter intervals, also called the knot v...

Estimating state-space models in innovations form using the expectation maximisation algorithm
The expectation maximisation (EM) algorithm has proven to be effective for a range of identification problems. Unfortunately, the way in which the EM algorithm has previously been ...
