Journal Article
Khanesar, M. A., & Branson, D. T. (2021). Prediction Interval Identification Using Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Systems: Lake Water Level Prediction Using Remote Sensing Data. IEEE Sensors Journal, 21(12), 13815-13827. https://doi.org/10.1109/JSEN.2021.3067841

This paper presents a novel approach to identify the prediction interval associated with data using interval type-2 fuzzy logic systems with support vector regression. For such a purpose, a constrained quadratic objective function is defined which is...

Geometric constraint-based modeling and analysis of a novel continuum robot with Shape Memory Alloy initiated variable stiffness (2020)
Journal Article
Yang, C., Geng, S., Walker, I., Branson, D. T., Liu, J., Dai, J. S., & Kang, R. (2020). Geometric constraint-based modeling and analysis of a novel continuum robot with Shape Memory Alloy initiated variable stiffness. International Journal of Robotics Research, 39(14), 1620-1634. https://doi.org/10.1177/0278364920913929

Continuum robots exhibit promising adaptability and dexterity for soft manipulation due to their intrinsic compliance. However, this compliance may lead to challenges in modeling as well as positioning and loading. In this paper, a virtual-work based...
