Dynamical Modeling and Control of Modular Snake Robots with Series Elastic Actuators for Pedal Wave Locomotion on Uneven Terrain
M. J. Koopaee, C. Pretty, K. Classens, and X. Chen, Journal of Mechanical Design, 2020 Abstract: This paper introduces the equations of motion of modular 2D snake robots moving in the vertical plane employing Series Elastic Actuators (SEAs). The kinematics of such 2D modular snake robot is presented in an Read more…
Multiphysical Modeling and Control of Photopolymerization for Additive Manufacturing
K. Classens M.S. Thesis Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) through photopolymerization is a prominent technique in which a photopolymer is selectively solidified towards a near net shape part, typically in a layer-wise manner. Photopolymerization-based AM is widely adopted in the high tech sector, but industry still faces several challenges to improve Read more…
