Fabio Ramos
Fabio Ramos coauthored DiSECt. DiSECt models a robot cutting soft materials. The team used a finite-element model, continuous contact and a damage model that permits cracks to form. Differentiation lets the system estimate material parameters and optimize a cutting controller. The paper compares simulated forces and deformation with a commercial solver and real cutting data. Fabio Ramos and the DiSECt team received the RSS 2021 Best Student Paper Award.
