This paper suggests a new non-linear friction compensation for digital control systems. This control adopts a hysteresis nonlinear element which can introduce the phase lead of the control system to compensate the phase delay comes from the inherent time delay of a digital control. A proper Lyapunov function is selected and the Lyapunov direct method is used to prove the asymptotic stability of the suggested control.

This report suggests a new non-linear friction compensation for digital control systems. This control adopts a hysteric nonlinear clement which can introduce the phase lead of the control system to compensate the phase delay comes from the inherent time delay of a digital control. The Lyapunov direct method is used to prove the asymtotic stability of the suggested control, and the stability and the effectiveness are verified analytically and experimentally on a single axis servo driving system.

We propose an adaptive nonlinear control algorithm for compensation of the stick-slip friction in a dynamic system. The friction force and mass of the system are estimated and compensated by adaptive control law. Especially, as the nonlinear control input in a small tracking error zone is enlarged by the nonlinear function, the steady state error is significantly reduced. The proposed algorithm is a direct adaptive control method based on the Laypunov stability theory, and its convergence is guaranteed under the bounded noise or torque disturbance. We verified the performance of the proposed algorithm by computer simulation on one-DOF mechanical system with friction.

Control of structural response due to seismic excitation in a manner of coupling adjacent buildings has been actively developed, and most attention focused on those buildings of similar height. However, with the rapid development of some modern cities, multi-story buildings constructed with an auxiliary low-rise podium structure to provide extra functions to the complex become a growing construction scheme. Being inspired by the positively examined coupling control approach for buildings with similar height, this paper aims to provide a comprehensive analytical study on control effectiveness of using friction dampers to link the two buildings with significant height difference to supplement the recent experimental investigation carried out by the writers. The analytical model of a coupled building system is first developed with passive friction dampers being modeled as Coulomb friction. To highlight potential advantage of coupling the main building and podium structure with control devices that provide a lower degree of coupling, the inherent demerit of rigid-coupled configuration is then evaluated. Extensive parametric studies are finally performed. The concerned parameters influencing the design of optimal friction force and control efficiency include variety of earthquake excitation and differences in floor mass, story number as well as number of dampers installed between the two buildings. In general, the feasibility of interaction control approach applied to the complex structure for vibration reduction due to seismic excitation is supported by positive results.

Friction phenomenon can be described as two parts which are pre-sliding and sliding regions. In motion of the sliding region, friction forces depend on the velocity of the system and are known as Coulomb, stick-slip, stribeck effect and viscous friction. The pre-sliding region, which is before breakaway, depends on the position of the system. The motion of friction in the sliding region can be described as the LuGre model. But the pre-sliding motion of friction, which has hysteresis characteristics in general, is not known widely. Therefore, an improved friction model, which can describe the motion of friction in the pre-sliding region, is proposed in this paper. And simulation and experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed friction model for precise tracking control systems.

This Paper presents a positioning control method of the LBLDCM(Linear Brushless DC Motor) under friction. The friction may cause steady state position error. So it is necessary to consider friction effect for precision positioning control. The proposed control method uses disturbance observer algorithm and friction compensation. The experimental results of the proposed control method based on the disturbance observer are presented to show its effectiveness.

To prove the stability and the effectiveness of the robust non-linear friction control suggested and proved analytically in the previous paper, the describing function analysis is introduced. The instability of the Southward's nonlinear friction compensation for a digital position control and the improvement of phase margin of the robust nonlinear friction compensation are verified qualitatively through the describing function analysis. Those controls are applied to a single-axis digital servo driving experimental setup which has inherent stick-slip friction and experimental results confirm the results obtained in and the effectiveness of the robust nonlinear friction compensation for a digital position control.

In general mechanical servo systems, friction deteriorates the performance of controllers by its nonlinear characteristics. Especially, friction phenomenon causes steady-state tracking errors and limit cycles in position and velocity control systems, even though gains of controllers are tuned well in linear system model. Even if sensor is used higher accuracy level, it is difficult to improve tracking performance of the position to the same level with a general control method such as PID type. Therefore, many friction models were proposed and compensation methods have been researched actively. In this paper, we consider that the variation of mover's mass is various by loading and unloading. The normal force variation occurs by it and other parameters. Therefore, the proposed control system is composed of main position controller and a friction compensator. A parameter estimator for a nonlinear friction model is designed by adaptive control law and adaptive backstopping control method.

In this paper, a friction compensation method using a disturbance observer is proposed for an impedance control of pneumatic manipulator. It is assumed that the generated torque by a pneumatic actuator can be estimated based on the pressure signals and the discharge volume. In order to improve the dynamic characteristics of the pneumatic actuator driven by meter out method, we construct the inner torque control system by feeding back the generated torque. In order to reduce the influence of disturbances comprising friction torque and parameter variations of plant, the impedance control system is constructed with a disturbance observer which estimates the disturbances based on the generated torque of pneumatic actuator, the angular velocity and the reaction torque. From some experiments, it is confirmed that the proposed control system is effective to improve the robustness for the friction torque in the impedance control of a pneumatic manipulator.

This paper presents an adaptive approach to control the amount of slip of the torque converter bypass clutch using its estimated friction coefficient. The proposed approach can be readily implemented using the inexpensive speed sensors currently installed in an automobile. A measurement feedback control law to drive the slip error to zero together with an adaptation law to identify the unknown friction coefficient is developed using the Lyapunov control design method. The robustness of the control and adaptation laws to parametric and/or torque uncertainties as well as the convergence of the friction coefficient are investigated. Simulation results verify the viability of the proposed control algorithm in real-world vehicle control applications.
