Abstract:Abstract-In many of the advanced surgical robotic systems, soft tissue mechanics and tool-tissue interaction modeling play an important role in achieving optimal control, relying on model-based control methods. This approach allows one to address crucial issues during teleoperation, such as time-delay, stability or state observation. This paper presents a novel approach for modeling the behavior of soft tissue during surgical interventions, employing the widely-used concept of rheological models. The nonlinear… Show more
