报告简介：

Robots are widely used for a number of tasks ranging from conventional industrial applications to service robotics. Researchers aim to further spread robots by improving their performance and/or by finding novel potential applications. These challenging goals can be conveniently achieved by means of design procedures, which can take into account multiple design criteria, since the early design stage. In this presentation, optimality criteria and optimization techniques are briefly outlined as basis for the optimal design of novel robotic solutions. Illustrative examples are outlined to show the feasibility and practical usefulness of this approach as referring to recent designs such as parallel/hybrid manipulators, humanoid robots, cable-driven robots for conventional or non-conventional applications including healthcare, cultural heritage/space exploration.
