Antagonistic Magneto-Rheological Actuators with Inherent Output Boundedness: An Ideal Solution for High-Performance and Human-Safe Actuation

This paper studies the working principles of antagonistic magneto-rheological (MR) actuators, i.e., a combination of an electric motor and a pair of MR clutches in an antagonistic configuration, for compliant actuation in robotics. The study focuses on the unique boundedness property exhibited by MR...
