Braid Effects on Contractile Range and Friction Modeling in Pneumatic Muscle Actuators
Within braided pneumatic Muscle Actuators (pMA) the braid structure is vital to the actuator's performance, preventing over-inflation, converting radial expansion into axial ...

On the Passive Force Closure Set of Planar Grasps and Fixtures
This paper considers grasps and fixtures whose contacts react according to force-displacement laws consistent with friction constrains at the contacts. The passive force closure s...

Geometric Reformulation of 3-Fingered Force-Closure Condition
— This paper addresses the problem of testing whether three contact points form a 3-fingered force-closure grasp in two dimensions. In particular, assuming frictional point cont...
