Humans have a remarkable ability to learn new concepts from only a few examples and
quickly adapt to unforeseen circumstances. To do so, they build upon their prior experience …

Hydraulic wind power transfer systems exhibit a highly nonlinear dynamic influenced by
system actuator hysteresis and disturbances from wind speed and load torque. This paper …

The X2-VelociRoACH is a 54 gram experimental legged robot which was developed to test

This paper establishes a novel online fault detection and identification strategy for a class of
continuous piecewise affine (PWA) systems, namely, bimodal and trimodal PWA systems …

As we seek to develop more maneuverable legged robots, we need to understand the
dynamics of legged turning in an approachable fashion. In this work, we analyze the …

The Kalman Filter is a robust tool often employed as a plant observer in control systems.
However, in the general case the high computational cost, especially for large system …

Compared with single robots, Multi-Robot Systems (MRS) can perform missions more
efficiently due to the presence of multiple members with diverse capabilities. However …
