| Abstract | This award supports research that seeks to enable new theory and algorithms for modeling and control of deformable systems with an emphasis on soft robots, thereby advancing the national health, promoting the progress of science, advancing prosperity and welfare, and securing the national defense. Deformable systems are infinite-dimensional systems that can undergo continuous deformations while moving in their configuration space. Control methods for deformable systems are scarce and their appli |
