This article, for the first time, presents the generation of Roots rotor tooth profiles based on an Assur-group-associated virtual linkage method. Taking the original Roots rotor as an example, structure and geometry of the Roots rotor are introduc...

Design and analysis of a bio-inspired module-based robotic arm (2016)
Journal Article
Luo, Z., Shang, J., Wei, G., & Renaut, L. (2016). Design and analysis of a bio-inspired module-based robotic arm. Mechanical Sciences, 7(2), 155-166. https://doi.org/10.5194/ms-7-155-2016

This paper presents a novel bio-inspired modular robotic arm that is purely evolved and developed from a mechanical stem cell. Inspired by stem cell whilst different from the other robot "cell" or "molecule", a fundamental mechanical stem cell is pro...

Geometry and kinematics for a spherical-base integrated parallel mechanism (2016)
Journal Article
Sun, J., Zhang, X., Wei, G., & Dai, J. (2016). Geometry and kinematics for a spherical-base integrated parallel mechanism. Meccanica, 51(7), 1607-1621. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11012-016-0438-7

Parallel mechanisms, in general, have a rigid base and a moving platform connected by several limbs. For achieving higher mobility and dexterity, more degrees of freedom are introduced to the limbs. However, very few researchers focus on changing the... Read More about Geometry and kinematics for a spherical-base integrated parallel mechanism.
