Effect of flexural stiffness distribution of a fin on propulsion performance
TL;DR: In this article, a dynamic model of a flexible fin is developed through multi-body dynamics approach by considering the flexible fin as multiple rigid segments connected with torsion springs, and a search-based numerical optimization study is conducted to investigate on the optimal flexural stiffness distribution yielding maximum thrust force.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design Optimization of Serial Link Redundant Manipulator: An Approach Using Global Performance Metric
TL;DR: An approach for design optimization of serial-link redundant manipulator is presented with exemplar optimizations on a 3-R planar and a 5-R spatial manipulator based on a global kinematic performance metric, which is chosen to be the GCI.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Design and impedance estimation of a biologically inspired flexible mechanical transmission with exponential elastic characteristic
TL;DR: In this article, an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) algorithm was used to estimate the stiffness and impedance of a series-elastic transmission with passive damping, where the passive properties of biological muscle were exploited for stiffness estimation.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Impedance estimation of a pneumatic muscle as a mechanical transmission and actuation device
TL;DR: In this paper, an online estimation of impedance components of a pneumatic muscle actuator is addressed in terms of effective inertia, damping rate and stiffness of the elastic muscle.
Book ChapterDOI
Effect of Whole-Body Flexibility of Caudal Fin on Propulsion Performance
TL;DR: In this article, a flexible trapezoidal fin is modeled as series of rigid segments connected with torsion springs and the governing equations of motion are obtained through multi-body dynamics approach.
