A novel self-organizing approach to cooperative hunting by swarm robotic systems is put forward. Firstly, an individual autonomous motion planning is presented, and the cooperative hunting behaviors are mathematically described. According to decomposition of hunting behaviors, the loose-preference rule is established for the individuals to form the ideal hunting formation during the self-organizing process by the interaction between the target and individuals. Then, we employ the proposed rule to design the autonomous motion controller of the individuals. Finally, the stability of self-organizing system is analyzed by Lyapunov stability criteria. Simulations and experiments demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach to cooperative hunting by swarm robotic systems.

Due to the intense vibration durirLg launching and rigorous orbital temperature environment, the kinematic parameters of space robot may be largely deviated from their nominal parameters. The disparity will cause the real pose (including position and orientation) of the end effector not to match the desired one, and further hinder the space robot from performing the scheduled mission. To improve pose accuracy of space robot, a new self-calibration method using the distance measurement provided by a laser-ranger fixed on the end-effector is proposed. A distance-measurement model of the space robot is built according to the distance from the starting point of the laser beam to the intersection point at the declining plane. Based on the model, the cost function about the pose error is derived. The kinematic calibration is transferred to a non-linear system optimization problem, which is solved by the improved differential evolution (DE) algoritlun. A six-degree of freedom (6-DOF) robot is used as a practical simulation example, and the simulation results show: 1) A significant improvement of pose accuracy of space robot can be obtained by distance measurement only; 2) Search efficiency is increased by improved DE; 3) More calibration configurations may make calibration results better.

This paper presents a type of vibration energy harvester combining a piezoelectric cantilever and a single degree of freedom (SDOF) elastic system. The main function of the additional SDOF elastic system is to magnify vibration displacement of the piezoelectric cantilever to improve the power output. A mathematical model of the energy harvester is developed based on Hamilton's principle and Rayleigh-Ritz method. Furthermore, the effects of the structural parameters of the SDOF elastic system on the electromechanical outputs of the energy harvester are analyzed numerically. The accuracy of the output performance in the numerical solution is identified from the finite element method (FEM). A good agreement is found between the numerical results and FEM results. The results show that the power output can be increased and the frequency bandwidth can be improved when the SDOF elastic system has a larger lumped mass and a smaller damping ratio. The numerical results also indicate that a matching load resistance under the short circuit resonance condition can obtain a higher current output, and so is more suitable for application to the piezoelectric energy harvester.

Magnetic microrobots have a wide variety of applications in micro/nano-manipulation, micro/nano sensing and biomedical fields. Untethered magnetic microrobots are usually driven by a group of electromagnetic coils. To control the magnetic microrobots trajectory it is of utmost importance to know the magnitude of the magnetic force applied on them. In this paper finite element simulations are proposed to derive the magnetic field produced by an iron core coil. A three dimensional static magnetic analysis is also performed to simulate the magnetic force applied on a magnetic microrobot. The simulation results are validated by experimental measurements. A teslameter is used to measure the magnetic field on the central axis of the coil. A magnetic microrobot (less than 400 × 400 μm 2 ) is fabricated and glued to a force sensor to measure the magnetic force applied on it. The measurement results are in good agreement with the simulation and show the effectiveness of the magnetic simulation.

This study explores the development of a new configuration of rotary magnetorheological fluid damper (MR damper) for pathological tremor suppression. In order to be attached to portable rehabilitation robot developed for practical application in robot assisted therapy, the proposed MR damper aims for design of compact size, light weight and enough output torque (about 4.5 Nm). An approach to form serpentine magnetic path by employing an offset electromagnetic coil and an asymmetric rotor is utilized to obtain a large radius and high area utilization rate of the magnetorheological fluid layer (thickness
