DESCRIPTION:This talk will explore the role of models within the context o
 f soft robotics for grasping\, sensing and locomotion. From the perspectiv
 e of experimental-based research and field robotics\, the talk will delve 
 into reduced-order models as tools for designing and deploying robots in s
 ensory deprived environments\; continuous models for leveraging soft bodie
 s and to increase sensing capabilities\; and multi-body models to improve 
 grasping effectiveness. An open discussion on what defines a soft robot\, 
 what experimental robotics is\, and how robotics is similar to – or  dif
 ferent from – other scientific disciplines will conclude the talk.\n\nTh
 e seminar will be held in the JDB Seminar Room\, Department of Engineering
 \, and online (zoom): https://newnham.zoom.us/j/92544958528?pwd=YS9PcGRnbX
