The use of space robots (SRs) for on-orbit services (OOSs) has been a hot research topic in
recent years. However, the space unstructured environment (ie: confined spaces, multiple …

Cable-driven serial-chain manipulators, CDSMs, are widely used from industries to human–
robot interaction applications demanding diverse performance requirements. The CDSMs …

This paper presents a novel approach using adaptive neuro-fuzzy techniques to design
controllers for planar cable-driven serial chain robots with variable configurations. The …

Abstract Continuum Manipulators (CMs) have gained popularity as a promising solution for
exploring unstructured environments due to their dexterity, compliance, and redundancy …

Soft continuum robots and manipulators (SCRaMs) are elongated structures that can be
used in many applications, such as exploration, inspection, and minimally invasive surgery …

Correctly predicting contaminant transport in enclosed environments is crucial for improving
interior layouts to reduce infection risks. Using the measured airflow field as input to predict …

The multilink cable driven robot (MCDR) is an extension of the cable robots where the
moving platform is replaced by a multibody chain. It is typically an open-chain structure with …

This paper focuses on the tension reduction method for a Modular Cable-Driven Robotic
Arm (MCDRA) that consists of a number of 2-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) cable-driven joint …

Inspired by the structure of human arms, a modular cable-driven human-like robotic arm
(CHRA) is developed for safe human–robot interaction. Due to the unilateral driving …

A cable-driven manipulator (CDM) has low stiffness and its stiffness identification is a critical
issue. This paper focuses on stiffness modeling and identification for a cable-driven …
