BIOLOCH Review Meeting(BIO-mimetic structures for LOComotion in the Human body) July 7, 2003 Alicante, Hotel Melia, Spain
Agenda of the Meeting (first hour) • Introduction • Objectives of the BIOLOCH Project • The Consortium The BIOLOCH research strategy Workplan, Expected Results and Milestones Main Results and Ongoing Activities • Locomotion in the human body: constraints • Mechanisms of friction enhancement and tribological studies • Preliminary “adhesion” prototypes and evaluation • Undulatory locomotion: • the earthworm model • the polychaete model • Enabling technologies, design rules and control issues: • Actuators • Sensors • (Neural) control Future Plans and Conclusions
Agenda of the Meeting /1 • Introduction • Objectives of the BIOLOCH Project • The Consortium The BIOLOCH research strategy Workplan, Expected Results and Milestones SSSA – 5/6 ppt slides
Agenda of the Meeting /2 Main Results and Ongoing Activities (SSSA – 1 slide ppt) • Locomotion in the human body: constraints (Steinbeis and UoT – 3 slides ppt on constraints, methodology, needs) • Mechanisms of friction enhancement and tribological studies (SSSA and UoB – 5 slides ppt) (Replicating the adhesion mechanism of Taenia – SSSA 5 slides ppt) (Differential friction phenomena (avena sativa and counter motors) – UoP 4 slides) • Preliminary “adhesion” prototypes and evaluation (SSSA – 3 slides)
Agenda of the Meeting /3 • Undulatory locomotion: (SSSA for the introduction – 3 slides ppt) • the earthworm model (SSSA – 8 slides ppt) • the polychaete model (FORTH – 8 slides ppt; UoB for the implementation – 5/6 slides) • Enabling technologies, design rules and control issues: (SSSA for the introduction – 3 slides ppt) • Actuators (UoP for Bio-like actuators – 5 slides ppt) (SSSA for actuators for earthworm modules – 10 slides ppt) • Sensors (UoB for setae morphology – 5 slides ppt) (SSSA implementation – 3 slides ppt) • (Neural) control (FORTH – 8/10 slides ppt) • Future Plans and Conclusions (ALL TOGETHER: design of the first prototype D3)
