This paper presents an innovative off-road wheeled mobile robot, named Octopus, able to
deal autonomously with obstacles in rough terrain without getting stuck. To achieve such a …

This article describes three interactive learning modules that are designed to develop intuition
as well as a working knowledge of proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control. These …

… Early versions of tools for PID were developed by Piguet and Aström in … Y and E are the
Laplace transforms of control signal u, setpoint ysp, process output y, and control error e = ysp − y…

Academic institutions are increasingly interested in developing Web-based experimentation
environments that support virtual and/or remote experimentation. Virtual experimentation …

Deploying remote laboratories at a large scale is the next challenge in remote experimentation.
It is referred as Massive Open Online Labs (MOOLs). Being able to sustain a massive …

Hundreds of PID design methods are available in literature. Many of them are very similar
and sometimes it is not straightforward to understand their purposes. This paper presents an …

At the 1989 meeting of the World Society for Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery in
Maebashi, the authors presented the concept and design of a stereotactic neurosurgical robot. …

… A forest U of a 1PI graph y is a set of divergent 1PI subgraphs A of y such that any two … of
y is denoted by F. It includes the empty forest and the trivial forest {7} consisting of the graph y …

This paper presents ongoing project to develop new interactive books for control education.
The novelty of the proposed idea is to merge web-based solutions with LaTex text into a …

In engineering education, laboratories represent an important academic resource as they
provide practical training in addition to the fundamental theories. However, the acquisition of …
