The performance of pump-jet propulsion systems is critically important in defense and marine applications. However, their optimization has encountered bottlenecks due to a lack of theoretical understanding of underlying flow mechanisms. This study in...
A small-scale electro-hydrostatic actuator, termed miniHydrA, was developed based on biomechanical requirements for gait and integrated into an ankle exoskeleton. The key advantage of this actuator concept lies in its compact size and the low mass of...
To meet the vibration isolation requirements of engines under diverse operating conditions, this paper proposes a novel magnetorheological fluid-elastomer isolator with high load and tunable parameters. The mechanical and magnetic circuit structures...
Leveling of the crane support platform plays a vital role in operational safety and lifting efficiency; it requires both precise horizontal positioning and the rational distribution of outrigger load. However, the current synchronous leveling methods...
In the three-motor hybrid architecture, the auxiliary drive uses electrically excited synchronous motor (EESM), which has the advantages of high torque density, wide speed range and strong anti-demagnetization ability. However, the strong electromagn...
Autonomous surgery involves surgical tasks performed by a robot with minimal or no human involvement. Thanks to its precise automation, surgical robotics offers significant benefits in enhancing the consistency, safety, and quality of procedures, dri...
A general high-order linear consensus protocol is proposed for coupling topologies defined by directed graphs with partial relative state information and a reference model with lobal/local gains. Necessary and sufficient second-order stability bounds...
A dual-loop fault-tolerant control scheme is investigated for UAV attitude control systems subject to actuator faults, input saturation, and external disturbances in this paper. In the outer loop of attitude angles, a nonlinear dynamic inversion cont...
This study presents a human-centric, data-driven modeling framework for the intelligent evaluation and classification of vibration-reducing (VR) gloves used in hand-transmitted vibration environments. Recognizing the trade-offs between protection and...
Electro-hydraulic servoactuators have great potential in mobile robotics due to their robustness, high bandwidth and power density, but compared with electromechanical actuators, they can be inefficient and more difficult to integrate into systems. T...
