1. Identification, Diagnosis, and Control of a Flexible Robot Arm
Abstract : The most important factors in manufacturing are quality, cost, and productivity. The trend is towards lighter robots with increased mechanical flexibilities, and therefore there is a need to include the flexibilities in the robot models to obtain good performance of the robot. READ MORE

2. On Robot Control using Range Sensors : with Special Reference to Active Uncertainty Reduction
Abstract : This thesis addresses the problem of positioning robots relative to objects in the surrounding work space. The object's position and orientation (posture) are measured using a non-contact sensor on-board the robot. For gripping/docking tasks the goal posture is specified relative to the object and not in a fixed coordinate system of the robot. READ MORE

3. Robot path planning : an object-oriented approach
Abstract : Path planning has important applications in many areas, for example industrial robotics, autonomous systems, virtual prototyping, and computer-aided drug design. This thesis presents a new framework for developing and evaluating path planning algorithms. The framework is named CoPP (Components for Path Planning). READ MORE

4. Design Optimization in Industrial Robotics : Methods and Algorithms for Drive Train Design
Abstract : Robot manufacturers, like many other manufacturers, are experiencing increasing competition in a global market where one way to confront the challenge is by making the development process more efficient. One way to speed up the time to market for new products is to take advantage of design optimization based on simulation models. READ MORE

5. Flexible Robot to Object Interactions Through Rigid and Deformable Cages
Abstract : In this thesis we study the problem of robotic interaction with objects from a flexible perspective that complements the rigid force-closure approach. In a flexible interaction the object is not firmly bound to the robot (immobilized), which leads to many interesting scenarios. READ MORE
