Dextrous Manipulation by Rolling and Finger Gaiting
Many practical dextrous manipulation tasks involve large-scale motion of the grasped object while maintaining a stable grasp. To plan such tasks, one must control both the motion ...

Regions of Feasible Point-to-Point Trajectories in the Cartesian Workspace of Fully-Parallel Manipulators
The goal of this paper is to define the n-connected regions in the Cartesian workspace of fully-parallel manipulators, i.e. the maximal regions where it is possible to execute po...

A Parallel Solution Scheme of Inverse Dynamics for Flexible Manipulators
In this paper, we describe a parallel solution scheme of inverse dynamics, and its application to flexible manipulators where elastic deformation and vibration normally occur in c...
