A Novel Continuum Robot Using Twin-Pivot Compliant Joints: Design, Modeling, and Validation (2015)
Journal Article
Dong, X., Raffles, M., Cobos-Guzman, S., Axinte, D., & Kell, J. (2016). A Novel Continuum Robot Using Twin-Pivot Compliant Joints: Design, Modeling, and Validation. Journal of Mechanisms and Robotics, 8(2), Article 021010. https://doi.org/10.1115/1.4031340

A twisting problem is identified from the central located flexible backbone continuum robot. Regarding this problem, a design solution is required to mechanically minimize this twisting angle along the backbone. Further, the error caused by the kinem...
