Additional information

This research resulted in a redundant and fault-tolerant actuator that can be used to drive heavy-load parallel manipulators, large-scale parallel earthquake simulators and an electric press with heavy duty cycles, etc. It also led to a recent EU award (Real-time adaptive networked control of rescue robots (PIRSES-GA-2012-318902)). The redundant and fault-tolerant actuator proposed in this paper is being applied in developing the rescue robots by the RABOT team (http://fusion-edu.eu/RABOT/).
