Flexible robot sealant dispensing cell using RGB-D sensor and off-line programming (2017)
Journal Article
Maiolino, P., Woolley, R., Branson, D. T., Benardos, P., Popov, A. A., & Ratchev, S. (in press). Flexible robot sealant dispensing cell using RGB-D sensor and off-line programming. Robotics and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing, 48, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rcim.2017.04.004

In aerospace manufacture the accurate and robust application of sealant is an integral and challenging part of the manufacturing process that is still performed by human operator. Automation of this process is difficult and not cost effective due to... Read More about Flexible robot sealant dispensing cell using RGB-D sensor and off-line programming.

Dynamics for variable length multisection continuum arms (2015)
Journal Article
Godage, I. S., Medrano-Cerda, G. A., Branson, D. T., Guglielmino, E., & Caldwell, D. G. (2016). Dynamics for variable length multisection continuum arms. International Journal of Robotics Research, 35(6), https://doi.org/10.1177/0278364915596450

Variable length multisection continuum arms are a class of continuum robotic manipulators that generate motion by structural mechanical deformation. Unlike most continuum robots, the sections of these arms do not have (central) supporting flexible ba... Read More about Dynamics for variable length multisection continuum arms.
