Performance Measures for Networks of Coupled Oscillators   Abstract Networks of coupled oscillators provide a model for a diverse range of systems, such as power grids, vehicle platoons, and biological networks. Stability in these systems[...]

Abstract Consider a bird perching on a branch. In the presence of environmental disturbances and complicated fluid flow, the animal exploits post-stall pressure drag to rapidly decelerate and land on a perch with a precision[...]

Abstract Innovation in sensing and actuation technologies is extremely important for future robots with human-like or human-involved applications, such as wearable robotics, rehabilitation robotics, surgical robotics, humanoids, haptics, tele-robotics where close interactions between human and[...]

Abstract Collaboration across medical and engineering disciplines is often vital to success in establishing hi-tech solutions to challenges in clinical care. The motivations and goals of these collaborations will be presented. Understanding the differences in[...]
