Estimation and Exploitation of Objects' Inertial Parameters in Robotic Grasping and Manipulation: A Survey
Nikos Mavrakis, Rustam Stolkin
Inertial parameters characterise an object's motion under applied forces, and can provide strong priors for planning and control of robotic actions to manipulate the object. Howeve…
The Devil is in the details: Pentagonal bipyramids and dynamic arrest
James E. Hallett, Francesco Turci, C. Patrick Royall
Colloidal suspensions have long been studied as a model for atomic and molecular systems, due to the ability to fluorescently label and individually track each particle, yielding p…
Chip-to-chip quantum teleportation and multi-photon entanglement in silicon
Daniel Llewellyn, Yunhong Ding, Imad I. Faruque +17
Exploiting semiconductor fabrication techniques, natural carriers of quantum information such as atoms, electrons, and photons can be embedded in scalable integrated devices. Integ…
A unified description of hydrophilic and superhydrophobic surfaces in terms of the wetting and drying transitions of liquids
Robert Evans, Maria C. Stewart, Nigel B. Wilding
Clarifying the factors that control the contact angle of a liquid on a solid substrate is a long-standing scientific problem pertinent across physics, chemistry and materials scien…
Maximally manipulable vision-based motion planning for robotic rough-cutting on arbitrarily shaped surfaces
T. Pardi, V. Ortenzi, C. Fairbairn +3
This paper presents a method for constrained motion planning from vision, which enables a robot to move its end-effector over an observed surface, given start and destination point…
Electroadhesion for soft adhesive pads and robotics: theory and numerical results
Bo N. J. Persson, Jianglong Guo
Soft adhesive pads are needed for many robotics applications, and one approach is based on electroadhesion. Here we present a general analytic model and numerical results for elect…
Shear-invariant Sliding Contact Perception with a Soft Tactile Sensor
Kirsty Aquilina, David A. W. Barton, Nathan F. Lepora
Manipulation tasks often require robots to be continuously in contact with an object. Therefore tactile perception systems need to handle continuous contact data. Shear deformation…
Improving drone localisation around wind turbines using monocular model-based tracking
Oliver Moolan-Feroze, Konstantinos Karachalios, Dimitrios N. Nikolaidis +1
We present a novel method of integrating image-based measurements into a drone navigation system for the automated inspection of wind turbines. We take a model-based tracking appro…
A giant impact as the likely origin of different twins in the Kepler-107 exoplanet system
Aldo S. Bonomo, Li Zeng, Mario Damasso +49
Measures of exoplanet bulk densities indicate that small exoplanets with radius less than 3 Earth radii () range from low-density sub-Neptunes containing volatile element…
Quantifying Temperature-dependent Substrate Loss in GaN-on-Si RF Technology
Hareesh Chandrasekar, Michael J. Uren, Michael A. Casbon +6
Intrinsic limits to temperature-dependent substrate loss for GaN-on-Si technology, due to the change in resistivity of the substrate with temperature, are evaluated using an experi…
Interference between independent photonic integrated devices for quantum key distribution
Henry Semenenko, Philip Sibson, Mark G. Thompson +1
Advances in quantum computing are a rapidly growing threat towards modern cryptography. Quantum key distribution (QKD) provides long-term security without assuming the computationa…
Stabilisation of an optical transition energy via nuclear Zeno dynamics in quantum dot-cavity systems
Thomas Nutz, Petros Androvitsaneas, Andrew Young +2
We investigate the effect of nuclear spins on the phase shift and polarisation rotation of photons scattered off a quantum dot-cavity system. We show that as the phase shift depend…
