The Koopman operator allows for handling nonlinear systems through a globally linear
representation. In general, the operator is infinite-dimensional–necessitating finite …

The development of autonomous, energy efficient, underwater robots for large areas
exploration has been attracting many researchers, since their use can be effective in several …

Accurate path tracking and stability are the main challenges of lateral motion control in
mobile robots, especially under the situation with complex road conditions. The interaction …

Undulatory swimming represents an ideal behavior to investigate locomotion control and the
role of the underlying central and peripheral components in the spinal cord. Many vertebrate …

This paper proposes and experimentally validates a straight line path following controller for
underwater snake robots in the presence of constant irrotational currents of unknown …

The inspiration for snake robots comes from biological snakes. Snakes display superior
mobility capabilities and can move over virtually any type of terrain, including narrow and …

Purpose Snake-inspired robots are of great significance in many fields because of their
great adaptability to the environment. This paper aims to systematically illustrate the …

In nature, snakes can gracefully traverse a wide range of different and complex
environments. Snake robots that can mimic this behaviour could be fitted with sensors and …

China's many dams are increasingly facing safety problems resulting from the natural aging
of the dam hydraulic structure and geological disasters such as earthquakes under the …

This study proposes a novel hybrid underwater robot platform, Hazardous and Extreme
environment RObot for Biomimetic multilocomotion-based Underwater Expedition (HERO …
