Compliant motion tasks for robot manipulators subject to joint velocity constraints
We develop non-smooth motion controllers that enable redundant manipulators to perform surface tasks, that involve force/torque interactions. The robot joint rates are constrained ...

Controlling walking behavior of passive dynamic walker utilizing passive joint compliance
Abstract— The passive dynamic walker (PDW) has a remarkable characteristic that it realizes cyclic locomotion without planning the joint trajectories. However, it cannot control ...

A dual neural network for bi-criteria kinematic control of redundant manipulators
A dual neural network is presented for the bi-criteria kinematic control of redundant manipulators. To diminish the discontinuity of minimum infinity-norm solutions, the kinematicc...
