Hysteresis analysis of a notched continuum manipulator driven by tendon

Continuum manipulators are widely used in minimally invasive surgical robot systems (MISRS) because of their flexibility and compliance, while their modelling and control are relatively difficult and complex. This paper proposes an improved hysteresis model of a notched continuum manipulator bas...
