recommendations! Published in 2019 at "Meccanica"

DOI: 10.1007/s11012-019-01072-6

Abstract: In this paper, we tackle the control problem of continuum robots with mismatched uncertainties. Uncertainties that affect systems through any of their states and may not be directly accessed by their controllers. These uncertainties emerge… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ifacol.2017.08.1115

Abstract: Abstract We consider the problem of controlling pneumatically actuated continuum robots with uncertain system dynamics and input disturbance. While such systems are intrinsically structurally safe due to soft and light-weight components, their structural flexibility challenges… read more here.
