Dynamics and control of clustered tensegrity systems
Shuo Ma, Muhao Chen, Robert E. Skelton
This paper presents the formulations of nonlinear and linearized statics, dynamics, and control for any clustered tensegrity system (CTS). Based on the Lagrangian method and FEM as…
Minimal mass design of a tensegrity tower for lunar electromagnetic launching
Xiaowen Su, Muhao Chen, Manoranjan Majji +1
Lunar explorations have provided us with information about its abundant resources that can be utilized in orbiting-resource depots as lunar-derived commodities. To reduce the energ…
Design and analysis of deployable clustered tensegrity cable domes
Shuo Ma, Muhao Chen, Xingfei Yuan +1
This study presents the design and analysis of deployable cable domes based on the clustered tensegrity structures (CTS). In this paper, the statics and dynamics equations of the C…
DREAMS: Drilling and Extraction Automated System
Mohamed Khaled, Srivignesh Srinivasan, Alkassoum Toure +14
Drilling and Extraction Automated System (DREAMS) is a fully automated prototype-drilling rig that can drill, extract water and assess subsurface density profiles from simulated lu…
Tensegrity system dynamics based on finite element method
Shuo Ma, Muhao Chen, Robert E. Skelton
This study presents a finite element analysis approach to non-linear and linearized tensegrity dynamics based on the Lagrangian method with nodal coordinate vectors as the generali…
