Journal Article
Wang, M., Palmer, D., Dong, X., Alatorre, D., Axinte, D., & Norton, A. (2018). Design and Development of a Slender Dual-Structure Continuum Robot for In-Situ Aeroengine Repair. Proceedings of the ... IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems. IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 5648-5653. https://doi.org/10.1109/IROS.2018.8594142

© 2018 IEEE. In-situ aeroengine maintenance works (e.g. inspection, repair) are highly beneficial as it can significantly reduce currently accepted maintenance cycle which is extensive and costly due to the need to remove engines from the wing of an...

Design and stiffness analysis of A class of 2-DoF tendon driven parallel kinematic mechanism (2018)
Journal Article
Ma, N., Yu, J., Dong, X., & Axinte, D. (2018). Design and stiffness analysis of A class of 2-DoF tendon driven parallel kinematic mechanism. Mechanism and Machine Theory, 129, (202-217). doi:10.1016/j.mechmachtheory.2018.07.023. ISSN 0094-114X

2-DoF Rotational mechanism is increasingly utilized in a large range of industrial applications. However, the structures of most of the existing mechanisms are very complex, which is a significant challenge for building them, due to the tight tolera...

Modelling an acuated large deformation soft continuum robot surface undergoing external forces using a lumped-mass approach (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Habibi, H., Yang, C., Kang, R., Walker, I. D., Godage, I. S., Dong, X., & Branson, D. T. (2018). Modelling an acuated large deformation soft continuum robot surface undergoing external forces using a lumped-mass approach

Precise actuation of continuum surfaces in combination with continuum robotic arms that undergo large deformation is of high interest in soft robotics but of limited model-based study to date. This work develops this area towards enabling the robust... Read More about Modelling an acuated large deformation soft continuum robot surface undergoing external forces using a lumped-mass approach.
