This paper deals with a fuzzy controller using IA(Immune Algorithm) for Trajectory Tracking of 2-DOF WMR(Wheeled Mobile Robot). The global inputs to the WMR are reference position and reference velocity, which are time variables. The global output of WMR is a current position. The tracking controller makes position error to be converged 0. In order to reduce position error, a compensation velocities on the track of trajectory is necessary. Therefore, a FIAC(Fuzzy-IA controller) is proposed to give velocity compensation in this system. Input variables of fuzzy part are position errors in every sampling time. The output values of fuzzy part are compensation velocities. IA are implemented to adjust the scaling factor of fuzzy part. The computer simulation is performed to get the result of trajectory tracking and to prove efficiency of proposed controller.

In this paper, we designed the 6-wheeled mobile robot (6-WMR) with the passive linkage mechanism which enables 6-WMR to passively adapt to the given stairs. To overcome the limit of adaptability to the terrain of conventional WMR and improve the energy efficiency, we proposed the new WMR using the passive linkage mechanism. The passive linkage mechanism consists of the simple four-bar linkage mechanism which allows 6-WMR to climb stairs with adaptability and an additional link which is connected to the four-bar linkage mechanism by a pin-slot joint to enable 6-WMR to passively go up the stairs. We made a miniature model of the proposed 6-WMR ...

In this paper, a nonlinear controller based on sliding mode control is applied to a two -wheeled Welding Mobile Robot (WMR) to track a smooth-curved welding path at a constant velocity of the welding point. T he mobile robot is considered in terms of dynamics model in Cartesian coordinates and its parameters are exactly known . To obtain the controller, the tracking errors are defined, and the two sliding surfaces are chosen to guarantee that the errors converge to zero asymptotically. Two cases are to be considered: fixed torch and controllable torch. In addition, a simple way of measuring the errors is introduced using two potentiometers. The simulation results are included to illustrate the performance of the control law.

In this paper, a nonlinear controller based on adaptive sliding-mode method which has a sliding surface vector including new boundary function is proposed and applied to a two-wheeled voiding mobile robot (WMR). This controller makes the welding point of WMR achieve tracking a reference point which is moving on a smooth curved welding path with a desired constant velocity. The mobile robot is considered in view of a kinematic model and a dynamic model in Cartesian coordinates. The proposed controller can overcome uncertainties and external disturbances by adaptive sliding-mode technique. To design the controller, the tracking error vector is defined, and then the new sliding is proposed to guarantee that the error vector converges to zero asymptotically. The stability of the dynamic system will be shown through the Lyapunov method. The simulations is shown to prove the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

In this paper, a nonlinear controller based on sliding mode control is applied to a two-wheeled Welding Mobile Robot (WMR) to track a smooth curved welding path at a constant velocity of the welding point. The mobile robot is considered in terms of dynamics model in Cartesian coordinates under the presence of external disturbance, and its parameters are exactly known. It is assumed that the disturbance satisfies the matching condition with a known boundary. To obtain the controller, the tracking errors are defined, and the two sliding surfaces are chosen to guarantee that the errors converge to zero asymptotically. Two cases are to be considered: fixed torch and controllable torch. In addition, a simple way of measuring the errors is introduced using two potentiometers. The simulation and experiment on a two-wheeled welding mobile robot are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

The aim of this paper is to propose a less conservative stabilization condition for leader-following sampled-data control of wheeled mobile robot (WMR) systems by using a clock-dependent Lyapunov function (CDLF) with looped functionals. In the leader-following WMR system, the state and input of the leader robot are measured by digital devices mounted on the following robot, and they are utilized to construct the sampled-data controller of the following robot. To design the sampled-data controller, a stabilization condition is derived by using the CDLF with looped functionals, and formulated in terms of sum of squares (SOS). The considered Lyapunov function is a polynomial form with respect to the clock related to the transmitted sampling instants. As the degree of the Lyapunov function increases, the stabilization condition becomes less conservative. This ensures that the designed controller is able to stabilize the system with a larger maximum sampling interval. The simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper proposes a simple, robust, nonlinear controller based on Lyapunov stability for tracking the reference welding path and velocity of a two-wheeled welding mobile robot (WMR). The system has three degrees of freedom including two wheels and one torch slider. Torch slider motion is used for faster tracking because the welding speed is very slow. Control law is obtained from the Lyapunov control function to ensure the asymptotical stability of the system. The controller has three free parameters for adjusting the performance of the controlled system. A simple way of measuring the errors using two potentiometers is introduced. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is shown through simulation results.

In wheeled mobile robot (WMR) research, point stabilization is one of the basic research issue. Point stabilization is to set mobile robot in desired position regardless of its orientation. In this paper, we propose a point stabilization scheme for car-like type WMR. We will define a new error states named as tangential error and nomal error. Then a heuristic control scheme will be suggested. The performance of these approach is verified via POSTUR-II.

This paper presents stable kinematic modeling and path planning and path tracking algorithms for the poisition control of 4-wheeled 2-d.o.f(degree of freedom) mobile robot. We drived the actuated inverse and sensed forward solution for the calculation of actuator velocity and robot velocities. the deal-reckoning algorithm is introduced to calculate the position of WMR in real time. The gaussian functions are applied to control and to design the smooth orientation angle of WMR and the path planning algorithm for obstacle avoidance is prosed. We composed feedback control system to compensate for error because of uncertainty kinematic modeling and measurement noise. The simulation resutls show that the proposed kinematkc modeling and path planning and feedback control algorithms are useful.
