We investigate the optimality of the configurations of a tentacle-like soft manipulator ensuring a planar force-closure condition. In particular, the optimization is performed with respect to both to the control strategies and to the set of contact points ensuring a planar, frictionless, first-order force-closure of the target. The case of an elliptic target object is discussed in detail, and numerical simulation are presented.

Abstract

We investigate the optimality of the configurations of a tentacle-like soft manipulator ensuring a planar force-closure condition. In particular, the optimization is performed with respect to both to the control strategies and to the set of contact points ensuring a planar, frictionless, first-order force-closure of the target. The case of an elliptic target object is discussed in detail, and numerical simulation are presented.
