Research on humanoid robots has been mostly with the aim of developing robots that can replace humans in the performance of certain tasks. Motion planning for these robots can be quite difficult, due to their complex kinematics, dynamics and environment. It is consequently one of the key research topics in humanoid robotics research and the last few years have witnessed considerable progress in the field. Motion Planning for Humanoid Robots surveys the remarkable recent advancement in both the theoretical and the practical aspects of humanoid motion planning. Various motion planning frameworks are presented in Motion Planning for Humanoid Robots, including one for skill coordination and lear...
Addressing the critical issues that were to bring Richard Cobden (1804-1865) to the attention of Europe's political classes, this volume provides a timely reassessment of his influence on the development of nineteenth-century economic thinking. Focusing particularly on Cobden's advocacy of free trade and opposition to tariffs, the book explores the impact of 'Cobdenism' on the national and international stage, and considers his lasting legacy to economic liberalism. Offering a broad yet coherent investigation of the 'Cobdenite project' by leading international scholars, this volume provides a new and fascinating insight into one of the nineteenth century's most important figures.
