An algorithm for the reduction of the numerical complexity of the analytical expressions participating in the dynamic model of robotic mechanism is a necessary part of the process of mathematical modelling of complex robotic mechanisms in symbolic form. Decomposition of the polynomial expressions into the products is a basic part of the algorithm f...

In this paper, we present a mechanical design of a conceptual hybrid autonomous underwater vehicle (H-AUV). We develop its dynamic model and perform several simulations to showcase its locomotive capabilities. The main contribution of the paper is in the proposed motion planning technique to solve for trajectories from a start to a goal configurati...

Fish are very efficient swimmers. In this paper, we studied a two degree-of-freedom (DOF) propeller that mimic fish caudal fin like locomotion. Kinematics modelling and hydrodynamic CFD analyses of the two DOF propellers were conducted. According to the CFD simulation, we show that negative power was generated within the flapping cycle, and wake fl...

In this paper, a worm-like locomotion in a linear resistive medium is studied to achieve controlled shape changes of the worm-like body by choosing a kind of driving with low energy expended and high-velocity locomotion in certain condition. To this end, we first develop the full dynamic model of the system under consideration to obtain the mean ve...

Jellyfish, also known as "medusae", move by rhythmically contracting and expanding their bell-shaped bodies and are the earliest known animals to achieve locomotion through the muscle power. Development of a generalized dynamical model of medusan swimming is of interest to biologists as well as engineers. In this paper we present a new approach to...

This paper presents an approach to control rolling locomotion on the level ground with a biologically inspired hexapod robot. For controlling rolling locomotion, a controller which can compensate energy loss with rolling locomotion of the hexapod robot is designed based on its dynamic model. The dynamic model describes the rolling locomotion which...

... It can effectively decouple the mutual coupling between the joint angle vector elements, simplify the equation coefficient matrix and save the control system's calculate ability. The simplified process of the model will also help to understand the analysis process of the robot control method [15][16]. ...

This paper presents a simplified method of dynamic equations in a generalized coordinate system, which decouples the relative motion of the front and back links of the robot joint, and maps generalized angular variables to the same angular datum. Because of the decoupling between absolute angle variables, the complexity of the coefficient matrix of the dynamic equation of the system is reduced, which facilitates the application of the actual series robot system. The simplified process is derived in detail, and the equivalent relation between the generalized relative coordinates and the generalized absolute coordinate dynamics is demonstrated. The relation can be extended to the dynamic equations of different generalized coordinate variables. Aimed at the problem that the quasi-input moment vectors obtained in generalized absolute coordinates cannot be directly used without considering the dynamic coupling of the whole system, the linear relationship between the input moment vectors in absolute and relative coordinates is found. In the end, a simplified example of the Euler-Lagrange dynamic equation for multi-degree-of-freedom manipulator is given. The relationship between the two input torque vectors is simulated by MATLAB and verifies that the input torque can be indirectly calculated by finding the quasi input torque under the absolute coordinates.
... This monograph is a result of a multi-year research conducted at the University of Novi Sad related to usage of intelligent methods of storing data. The research started with attempts to use databases to store data on models of robotic mechanisms [48,49] and to use XML with databases [68,73]. In continuation, the research group is concentrated around research on possibilities to use fuzzy logic with databases since 2005. ...

In this book, we will compare different planning research fields. To be able to compare and analyze differences and similarities, the introductory chapter describes a common, abstract conceptualization of planning. As a starting point, it is presumed that all intelligent systems use anticipation to plan. Based on this, our definition of planning distinguishes five elements of planning: the entity (human or computer program) that makes the plan, the entity that executes the plan, the planning process, the model of the future, and the plan itself. Based on these five factors, we infer a number of generic characteristics that are used as a common framework throughout the book.
