This paper presents the results of a study on the effects of low car speeds and the elastic-
damping properties of tires on steering effort.“Steering effort” is a measure of the …

Beside the humanoid platform both in the male and female form, a huge numbers of
researches are advancing to design and develop the humanoid robot kits ensuring the …

Due to the advantage of driving convenience from reduced driver's steering effort, electric
power steering (EPS) is increasingly employed in vehicle steering systems. However, as the …

Continuous monitoring, accuracy of evaluation, and proper analysis of human gait
characteristics have presented the importance not only in clinical studies, but also in the field …

Gait analyses are the preliminary requirements to establish a navigation system of a
humanoid robot. Designing a suitable indoor environment and its mapping are also …

Power Take-Off (PTO) power are generally lower than the engine power due to parasitic
losses. These losses are caused by engine-driven auxiliary loads such as cooling fans …

In recent years, due to heightened environmental awareness, Electric Power Steering (EPS)
has been increasingly adopted as the steering control unit in manufactured vehicles. This …

Like the walking gait, turning left or right is also an important action for an anthropoid to
adapt itself in its navigation environment. The fashion of turning gait includes two main …

This paper represents a gait designing strategy for an anthropomorphic robot to step over an
obstacle. The gait is conducted as one of the major requirements to establish an indoor …

Recenly conventional vehicles use fossil fuels, however these fuels are non-renewable
energy sources and their availability in nature is very limited. If they are explored …
