Abstract:
This research presents a 10-year systematic review based on bibliometric analysis of the bio-inspired design of hard-bodied mobile robot mechatronic systems considering the anatomy of arthropods. These are the most diverse group of animals whose flexible biomechanics and adaptable morphology, thus, it can inspire robot development. Papers were reviewed from two international databases (Scopus and Web of Science) and one platform (Aerospace Research Central), then they were classified according to: Year of publication (January 2013 to April 2023), arthropod group, published journal, conference proceedings, editorial publisher, research teams, robot classification according to the name of arthropod, limb\'s locomotion support, number of legs/arms, number of legs/body segments, limb\'s degrees of freedom, mechanical actuation type, modular system, and environment adaptation. During the screening, more than 33 000 works were analyzed. Finally, a total of 174 studies (90 journal-type, 84 conference-type) were selected for in-depth study: Insecta-hexapods (53.8%), Arachnida-octopods (20.7%), Crustacea-decapods (16.1%), and Myriapoda-centipedes and millipedes (9.2%). The study reveals that the most active editorials are the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., Springer, MDPI, and Elsevier, while the most influential researchers are located in the USA, China, Singapore, and Japan. Most works pertained to spiders, crabs, caterpillars, cockroaches, and centipedes. We conclude that \'arthrobotics\' research, which merges arthropods and robotics, is constantly growing and includes a high number of relevant studies with findings that can inspire new methods to design biomechatronic systems.
摘要:
这项研究基于对考虑节肢动物解剖结构的硬质移动机器人机电系统的生物启发设计的文献计量分析,进行了为期10年的系统综述。这些是最多样化的一组动物,其灵活的生物力学和适应的形态,因此,它可以激发机器人的发展。论文从两个国际数据库(Scopus和WebofScience)和一个平台(航空航天研究中心)进行了审查,然后将它们分类为:出版年份(2013年1月至2023年4月),节肢动物群,出版期刊,会议记录,编辑出版商,研究团队,机器人按节肢动物的名称分类,肢体的运动支撑,腿/臂的数量,腿/身体段的数量,肢体的自由度,机械驱动类型,模块化系统,和环境适应。在筛选过程中,分析了33000多件作品。最后,总共174项研究(90项期刊类型,84会议型)被选中进行深入研究:昆虫纲-六足动物(53.8%),蜘蛛-章鱼(20.7%),甲壳类动物-足类(16,1%),和Myriapoda-cent和千足虫(9,2%)。该研究显示,最活跃的社论是电气和电子工程师协会,Springer,MDPI,和Elsevier,虽然最有影响力的研究人员位于美国,中国,新加坡,和日本。大多数作品都与蜘蛛有关,螃蟹,毛毛虫,蟑螂,和cent。我们得出的结论是“关节病”研究,它融合了节肢动物和机器人,不断增长,包括大量相关研究,这些研究发现可以激发设计生物机电系统的新方法。
