About this title

Synopsis

Robotic Systems and Autonomous Platforms: Advances in Materials and Manufacturing showcases new materials and manufacturing methodologies for the enhancement of robotic and autonomous systems. Initial chapters explore how autonomous systems can enable new uses for materials, including innovations on different length scales, from nano, to macro and large systems. The means by which autonomous systems can enable new uses for manufacturing are also addressed, highlighting innovations in 3D additive manufacturing, printing of materials, novel synthesis of multifunctional materials, and robotic cooperation. Concluding themes deliver highly novel applications from the international academic, industrial and government sectors.

This book will provide readers with a complete review of the cutting-edge advances in materials and manufacturing methodologies that could enhance the capabilities of robotic and autonomous systems.

Presents comprehensive coverage of materials and manufacturing technologies, as well as sections on related technology, such as sensing, communications, autonomy/control and actuation
Explores potential applications demonstrated by a selection of case-studies
Contains contributions from leading experts in the field

About the Authors

Dr. Shawn M. Walsh is currently the Research, Development, and Engineering Command (RDECOM) Fellow serving on the Army Future Studies Group. As an active researcher at the Army Research Laboratory, he has been widely recognized for his early and continued work in intelligent materials and processes, and the development of new application space by reaching across academic, industrial, and military sectors. He is an alumni of the National Academy of Engineering’s Frontiers in Engineering, and the recipient of several awards including the U.S. Defense Manufacturing Technology Achievement Award for breakthrough performance of next generation head protection

Professor Michael S. Strano is currently the Carbon P. Dubbs Professor of Chemical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His research focuses on micro- and nano-meter scale robotics, biomolecule/nanoparticle interactions and the surface chemistry of low dimensional systems, nano-electronics, nanoparticle separations, and applications of vibrational spectroscopy to nanotechnology. Michael is the recipient of numerous awards for his work from 2005 to the present, and was elected to the National Academy of Engineering in 2017
