Towards passive object on-orbit manipulation by cooperating free-flying robots
——Space exploitation will require efficient techniques for manipulating passive objects on orbit. This work presents a manipulation concept that utilizes both the on-off thruste...

Optimal distributed planning for self assembly of modular manipulators
— We describe algorithms to build self-assembling robot systems composed of active modular robots and passive bars. The distributed algorithms are based on locally optimal matchi...

Decentralized control of cooperative robots without velocity-force measurements
: One of the main practical problems on cooperative robots is the complexity of integrating a large amount of expensive velocity/force sensors. In this paper, the control of cooper...

Integration of active and passive compliance control for safe human-robot coexistence
— In this paper we discuss the integration of active and passive approaches to robotic safety in an overall scheme for real-time manipulator control. The active control approach ...

Graphical Singularity Analysis of Planar Parallel Manipulators
- This paper introduces a new approach to identify singularities of planar parallel manipulators (PPMs). This method is based on Maxwell’s reciprocal figure theory which establis...
