Wear rate-state interaction modelling for a multi-component system : models and an experimental platform (2016)
Journal Article
Assaf, R., Scarf, P., Nefti-Meziani, S., & Do, P. (2016). Wear rate-state interaction modelling for a multi-component system : models and an experimental platform. IFAC-PapersOnLine, 49(28), 232-237. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ifacol.2016.11.040

This paper proposes a general deterioration model for a multi-component system. The deterioration process of a component depends upon the operational conditions, the component’s own state, and also the state of other components. An experimental platf...

Variable stiffness McKibben muscles with hydraulic and pneumatic operating modes (2016)
Journal Article
Xiang, C., Giannaccini, M., Theodoridis, T., Nefti-Meziani, S., & Davis, S. (2016). Variable stiffness McKibben muscles with hydraulic and pneumatic operating modes. Advanced robotics : the international journal of the Robotics Society of Japan, 30(13), 889-899. https://doi.org/10.1080/01691864.2016.1154801

McKibben muscles have been shown to have improved stiffness characteristics when operating hydraulically. However, when operating pneumatically they are compliant and so have potential for safer physical Human Robot Interaction (pHRI). This paper pre...

This paper deals with two novel structures for mobile robots. The original inspiration of the robots comes from a salamander and a specific kind of spiders. Our robots have some especial moving capabilities causing to increase the robot maneuverabili... Read More about Two bioinspired mobile manipulators with rolling locomotion.
