  • Geometry of Locomotion

    Creator:
    Ramasamy, Suresh
    Abstract:
    Many animals and robots move through the world by coupling cyclical changes in shape called gaits to an interaction with the environment. Because mobility is an important aspect of such robots, a key metric when evaluating design and performance of mobile robots is the efficiency of their optimal gaits. The...

  • Geometric Motion Planning for Inertial Systems

    Creator:
    Faraji, Hossein
    Abstract:
    In order to enable better visualization and understanding of the effect of the robot's geometry and inertia on the robot's trajectories, this dissertation proposes to use geometric mechanics to bridge the gap between the physical motion of a robot and its mathematical structure. The main focus of this research is...
