A numerical framework for the stability and cardinality analysis of concentric tube robots: Introduction and application to the follow-the-leader deployment

•Concentric tube robots (CTR) are interesting for surgical applications.•Evaluation of stability and number of equilibria for given actuation inputs remains difficult.•A generic numerical framework for cardinality and stability assessment is proposed.•Continuation method, dynamic relaxation and bifu...
