  This paper presents an approach to in-hand manipulation planning that
exploits the mechanics of alternating sticking contact. Particularly, we
consider the problem of manipulating a grasped object using external pushes for
which the pusher sticks to the object. Given the physical properties of the
object, frictional coefficients at contacts and a desired regrasp on the
object, we propose a sampling-based planning framework that builds a pushing
strategy concatenating different feasible stable pushes to achieve the desired
regrasp. An efficient dynamics formulation allows us to plan in-hand
manipulations 100-1000 times faster than our previous work which builds upon a
complementarity formulation. Experimental observations for the generated plans
show that the object precisely moves in the grasp as expected by the planner.
