Journal Article
Karim, S., Piano, S., Branson, D., Santoso, T., Leach, R., & Tolley, M. (2022). Real-time target alignment system for high-power high-repetition rate laser operations using a five degree-of-freedom hybrid mechanism. International Journal of Control, 95(4), 867-885. https://doi.org/10.1080/00207179.2020.1827297

This paper presents a real-time position control solution for the targets used in the high-repetition rate laser operations of large-scale high-power laser facilities. The design of the control system is based on an Abbe-compliant, in-process positio...

© 2020, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. This paper presents a support vector regression-based multi-objective parameter estimation method for interval type-2 fuzzy systems, which deals with prediction interval rather than its crisp output value. S... Read More about Support Vector Regression for Multi-objective Parameter Estimation of Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Systems.

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...
