Kinematic Analysis and Application to Control Logic Development for RHex Robot Locomotion

This study explores the kinematic model of the popular RHex hexapod robots which have garnered considerable interest for their locomotion capabilities. We study the influence of tripod trajectory parameters on the RHex robot’s movement, aiming to craft a precise kinematic model that enhances walking mechanisms. This model serves as a cornerstone...

Integrated Fault Detection, Classification and Section Identification (I-FDCSI) Method for Real Distribution Networks Using μPMUs

This paper presents a rules-based integrated fault detection, classification and section identification (I-FDCSI) method for real distribution networks (DN) using micro-phasor measurement units ((Formula presented.) PMUs). The proposed method utilizes the high-resolution synchronized realistic measurements from the strategically installed ...

Organizational Impact on Project Team Efficiency: How simulations can help create a productive and efficient environment

This research tries to quantitatively identify the relation between team composition, organization structure, communication and team efficiency. The study takes a model-based approach to reach its objective. This research stresses the utility of agent-based modeling as a tool to first replicate the environment of an on-going project in India and...
