Peptide Isomerization is Suppressed at the Air-Water Interface

Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Aditya N. Singh, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: We use molecular dynamics simulations to study the thermodynamics and kinetics of alanine dipeptide isomerization at the air-water interface. Thermodynamically, we find an affinity of the dipeptide to the interface. This affinity arises from stablizing intramolecular […]

Safe Online Gain Optimization for Variable Impedance Control

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Changhao Wang, Zhian Kuang, Xiang Zhang, Masayoshi Tomizuka, | Summary: Smooth behaviors are preferable for many contact-rich manipulation tasks. Impedance control arises as an effective way to regulate robot movements by mimicking a mass-spring-damping system. Consequently, the robot behavior can be determined by the impedance gains. However, […]
