Mobile robots are effectively used in industrial fields that require flexible manufacturing systems. Mobile robots have to move with mechanical loads such as product parts along the specified paths, and are usually equipped with kinematic controllers. When the loads and nonlinear frictions are too high, satisfactory control performances can not be expected with the kinematic controllers, so some dynamic controllers have been developed. Conventional dynamic controllers require the exact weights and locations of the loads; however, the loads are frequently changed and unknown so that the control performances of the conventional controllers are limited. This paper proposes an adaptive PD control method using gradient descent learning to have sufficient dynamic control performance for unknown loads. Simulation studies have been conducted for various load conditions to verify that the adaptive PD control method have much broader convergence region than the convention method.

To improve the performance of inner loop based on PD controller for a unmanned helicopter, neural networks are applied. The performance of PD controller designed on the response characteristics of error dynamics decreases because of uncertain nonlinearities of the system. The nonlinearities are decoupled to modified dynamic inversion model(MDIM) and are compensated by the neural networks. For the training of the neural networks, online weight adaptation laws which are derived from Lyapunov's direct method are used to guarantee the stability of the controller. The results of the improved performance of PD controller by neural networks are illustrated in the simulation of unmanned helicopter with nonlinearities,

This paper presents a direct adaptive control of robot system using chaotic neural networks and PD controller. The chaotic neural networks have robust nonlinear dynamic characteristics because of the sufficient nonlinearity in neuron itself, and the additional self-feedback and inter-connecting weights between neurons in same layer. Since the structure and the learning method are not appropriate for applying in control system, this neural networks have not been applied. In this paper, a modified chaotic neural networks is presented for dynamic control system. To evaluate the performance of the proposed neural networks, these networks are applied to the trajectory control of the three-axis PUMA robot. The structure of controller consists of PD controller and chaotic neural networks in parallel for conforming the stability in initial learning phase. Therefore, the chaotic neural network controller acts as a compensating controller of PD controller.

In this paper, adaptive evolutionary algorithm(AEA) is proposed, which uses both genetic algorithm(GA) with good global search capability and evolution strategy(ES) with good local search capability in an adaptive manner, when population evolves to the next generation. In the reproduction procedure, proportion of the population for GA and ES is adaptively determined according to their fitness. The AEA is used to design membership functions and scaling factors of the fuzzy logic controller(FLC). To evaluate the performance of the proposed FLC design method, we make an experiment on the FLC for the speed control of an actual DC series motor system with nonlinear characteristics. Experimental results show that the proposed controller has better performance than PD controller.

Many researches have been focused on optimal designs of a pole shape in order to reduce cogging torques, which are generated between permanent magnets and slots. In this paper, an adaptive controller is proposed for reducing the effect of cogging torques in servo motors. The controller stabilizes the control system and shows an excellent trajectory tracking performance compared to the conventional PD controller.

본 논문에서는 유연한 단일링크 매니퓰레이터의 끝단 위치 추적제어를 위해 웨이블렛 신경망을 이용한 강인 적응제어기를 제안한다. 전체 제어기는 웨이블렛 신경망에 의해 추정된 피드백 선형화 제어기와 그 추정오차를 보상하기 위한 보상제어기로 구성된다. 시스템의 출력값은 최소위상을 보장하기 위하여 재정의하여 사용된다. 구성된 웨이블렛 신경망의 연결 가중치는 Lyapunov 안정도 이론에 기초해서 조절된다. 제안된 제어기의 성능 향상은 PD 제어기와 비교함으로써 입증된다.

We have been developing an underwater robot for harbour construction using a parallel mechanism The robot is attached to the rope of a crane, which curries a large stone into the undersea The robot's yaw and pitch are controlled by hydraulic cylinders but its roll is uncontrollable. We mount propellers in both side of the robot to generate the roll motion This paper studies on the control for the roll motion of a underwater robot. A gyro-sensor is used to measure the angle in a roll motion We develop the dynamic model to describe the robot's roll motion by a second order non-linear system and identify the model parameters by recursive least square and adaptive identifier. PD control, recursive model based control and adaptive model based control are applied with the dynamic model which computes the control input to compensate disturbances. This paper introduces the underwater robot system and presents the simulated and experimental results of the proposed controller.

Fuzzy Logic Control immitating human decision making process is a novel control strategy based on expert's experience and knowledge and many process designers are developing its applications. But it is difficult to obtain a set of rules from human operator. And there is a limitation on adjusting to environmental changes. In this paper, we proposed adaptive fuzzy algorithm to overcome these difficulties using weights added to the rules. To verify the validity of this control strategy, we have implemented this algorithm for a DC servo motor with PD-type fuzzy controller.
