— Classic adaptive control methods for handling varying loads rely on an analytically derived model of the robot’s dynamics. However, in many situations, it is not feasible or ...
This paper proposes a three-dimensional biped dynamic walking algorithm based on Passive Dynamic Autonomous Control (PDAC) which is previously proposed. The robot dynamics is model...
— Motivated by an error-recovery locomotion problem, we propose a control technique for a complex mechanical system by decomposing the system dynamics into a collection of simpli...

— We explore the control synthesis problem for a robot dynamically manipulating an object in the presence of multiple frictional contacts. Contacts occur both between the object ...

— This paper describes a motion planning algorithm that accounts for uncertainty in the dynamics of vehicles. This noise is a function of the type of controller employed on the v...
