Resonant Robotic Systems

Especially designed as self-sustaining oscillating systems, resonant robotic systems use the natural modes of oscillation of electromechanical modules for their movements. In fact, manipulator systems built on these principles demonstrate record-breaking characteristics in performance. The authorssummarizethe results and experience of research on, and development of, resonant robotic systems. For the readers convenience, apresentation of design concepts is followedbysolutions tonew dynamical and control problems. The book is intended for designers, researchers andgraduate students.
