This paper presents a mechanistic analysis of stiffness in cable-driven serpentine manipulators (CDSMs), incorporating both cable tension and cable stiffness. First, we derive an analytical stiffness model based on robot statics, identifying cable tension and stiffness as the dominant factors govern

Cable-driven continuum manipulators exhibit high flexibility and dexterity, leading to their increased popularity in recent years. Friction analysis is a crucial problem for these manipulators. Previous research has introduced friction models that are applicable to dynamic states where the direction
Cable-driven continuum manipulators have gained considerable attention due to their high dexterity and inherent structural compliance, making them a popular research topic. However, previous studies have overlooked the kinetostatics of these manipulators, which can result in a multi-solution problem…
