This paper discusses stiffness and antagonistic actuation in light-weight cable-driven bio-
inspired manipulators suitable for safe interactions. Manipulators under study are built upon …

This paper proposes design strategies and a comparative study of two antagonistically
actuated tensegrity joints: a revolute (R) joint and an anti-parallelogram (X) joint …

This paper is devoted to the control and identification of a manipulator with three anti-
parallelogram joints in series, referred to as X-joints. Each X-joint is a tensegrity one-degree …

This paper proposes a new kind of light-weight manipulators suitable for safe interactions.
The proposed manipulators use anti-parallelogram joints in series, referred to as X-joints …

This study considers two-degree-of-freedom planar tensegrity-inspired manipulators
composed of anti-parallelogram (X) and revolute (R) joints containing springs and actuated …

Reconfigurable parallel mechanisms were first discovered in response to the growing
demand for flexible and adaptive systems in various fields. Unlike traditional mechanisms …

The stability and stiffness analysis of tensegrities is significant for their applications in robotic
areas. Generally, tensegrity structures' stiffness is divided into a non-negative definite …

This paper presents a modeling and design exploration study of a novel twisting wing whose
motion is enabled by a tensegrity mechanism. The aerodynamic characteristics of the …

Knowing how to make a multi-locomotion robot achieve locomotion transition under different
terrains is a challenging problem, especially for tensegrity robots with multi-locomotion …

This paper investigates the forward and inverse kinematics in screw coordinates for a planar
slider-crank linkage. According to the definition of a screw, both the angular velocity of a …
