Navigation and coordination of autonomous mobile robots with limited resources

Creator:

Knudson, Matthew D.

Abstract:

The use of autonomous robots in complex exploration tasks is rapidly increasing. Indeed, robots can provide speed and cost effectiveness in many tasks, as well as allow operation in environments that are hostile to humans. In this dissertation we: 1) provide two adaptive navigation algorithms; 2) develop a coordination mechanism;...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Matthew D. Knudson for
Applying hierarchical and adaptive control to coordinating simple robots

Creator:

Knudson, Matthew D.

Abstract:

Coordinating multiple robots to achieve a complex task requires solving two distinct control problems: the high-level control problem of ensuring that each robot aims to perform a useful task (e.g., coordination) and the low-level control problem of ensuring that each robot actually performs the correct actions to achieve its task...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Matthew D. Knudson for the
A neuro-evolutionary multiagent approach to multi-linked inverted pendulum control

Creator:

Sills, Stephen

Abstract:

Recent work has shown humanoid robots with spinal columns, instead of rigid torsos, benefit from both better balance and an increased ability to absorb external impact. Similarly, snake robots have shown promise as a viable option for exploration in confined spaces with limited human access, such as during power plant...

From running birds to walking robots : optimization as a unifying framework for dynamic bipedal locomotion

Creator:

Hubicki, Christian M.

Abstract:

Bipedal locomotion is a complex phenomenon to understand and control, making it difficult for legged robots to achieve the speed, agility, efficiency, and robustness of their animal counterparts. This thesis argues for the use of numerical optimization to investigate and implement bipedal control as it applies to biology, dynamical models,...
