Modeling, control and implementation of a real redundant robot with five Degrees Freedom (DOF) of the SCARA (Selective Compliant Assembly Robot Arm) manipulator type is presented. Through geometric methods and structural and functional considerations, the inverse kinematics for redundant robot can be obtained. By means of a modification of the classical sliding mode control law through a hyperbolic function, we get a new algorithm which enables reducing the chattering effect of the real actuators, which together with the learning and adaptive controllers, is applied to the model and to the real robot. A simulation environment including the actuator dynamics is elaborated. A 5 DOF robot, a communication interface and a signal conditioning circuit are designed and implemented for feedback. Three control laws are executed in: a simulation structure (together with the dynamic model of the SCARA type redundant manipulator and the actuator dynamics) and a real redundant manipulator of the SCARA type carried out using MatLab/Simulink programming tools. The results, obtained through simulation and implementation, were represented by comparative curves and RMS indices of the joint errors, and they showed that the redundant manipulator, both in the simulation and the implementation, followed the test trajectory with less pronounced maximum errors using the adaptive controller than the other controllers, with more homogeneous motions of the manipulator.

An improved parameter adaptation and control law for robot manipulator are proposed based on a linearized parametric system equation and augmented error vectors. In view of the modeling error and parasitics with small time constants which inevitably introduced during modelling process, their effects on the robustness of the system performance are reviewed and as an conutermearsure, adaptation mechanism with low pass filter is proposed. Proposed parameter adaptation and control low assure the stability of the robot manipulator in the large without further assumption. Computer simulation shows its effectiveness of the proposed adaptation mechanism to improve the robustness of the system in presence of the parasitics in the system and superior performance for high speed operations make it an attractive option in application of the adaptive control field for robot manipulator.

Continuous sliding mode control is applied to turning process for cutting force regulation. The highest feedrate compatible with the allowable cutting force is applied in rough cutting process such that maximum productivity is ensured and tool breakage is avoided. The programmed feedrate is overridden after the control algorithm is carried out. However, most CNC lathe manufacturers offer limited number of data bits far feedrate override, thus resulting in nonlinear behavior of the machine tools. Such nonlinearity brings “quantized” effect, and the optimal faedrate is rounded off before being fed into the CNC system. To compensate for this problem, continuous sliding mode control is applied. Conventional switching control law at a sliding surface is replaced by a smooth control interpolation in a selected boundary layer to avoid the excitation of high-frequency dynamics. Simulation results are presented in comparison with those obtained by applying adaptive control.

In general, the dynamics of autonomous underwater vehicles(AUVs) are highly nonlinear and time-varying, and the hydrodynamic coefficients of vehicles are hard to estimate accurately because of the variations of these coefficients with different navigation conditions. For this reason, in this paper, the control gain function is assumed to be unknown and the exogenous input term is assumed to be unbounded, although it still satisfies certain restrict condition. And these two kinds of wild assumptions have been seldom handled simultaneously in one system because of the difficulty of stability analysis. Under the above two relaxed assumptions, a robust neural network control scheme is presented for autonomous diving control of an AUV, and can guarantee that all the signals in the closed-loop system are UUB (uniformly ultimately bounded). Some practical features of the proposed control law are also discussed.

In this paper, attitude control laws for simultaneous pointing of multiple spacecrafts are considered under a formation flying scenario. The basic approach lies in adaptive feedback gains using relative attitude information or maneuver time approximation for coordinated attitude control. Each control law is targeted to balancing mean motion or to correcting system response to the slowest satellite. The control gain adaptation is constructed by two approaches. The first one is using variable damping gain to manipulate speed of a fast system response, and the second one uses alternate natural frequency of the system under control. The validity and stability of the proposed approaches are examined analytically and tested through numerical simulations.

In this paper, we develope a composite control law for linear systems with norm-bounded time-varying parameter uncertainties, which consists of a basic linear robust control do-signed so as to generate a desired transient time-response for the worst-case parameter variation and a nonlinear modification term designed so as to reduce cautiousness of the linear robust control in an adaptive manner. The proposed controller is established such that the reduction of cautiousness of the linear robust control is well incorporated into the achievement of a good transient behavior.

In this paper, a modified skyhook control for the semi-active Macpherson suspension system is investigated. A new model for the semi-active type suspension, which incorporates the rotational motion of the unsprung mass, is introduced and an output feedback control law using the skyhook control method is derived. The gains in the skyhook controller are adaptively adjusted by estimating the road conditions. Because two vertical acceleration sensors, one for the sprung mass and another for the unsprung mass, are used rather than using the angle sensor for the rotational motion of the control arm, the relative velocity of the rattle space is filtered using the acceleration signals. For testing the control performance, the actual damping force has been incorporated via the hardware-in-the-loop simulations. The performances of a passive damper and a semi-active damper are compared. Simulation results are provided.

This paper discusses on the stochastic adaprive control which uses a least squares method in the parameter adaptation law. Especially we study on the reason why existing methods have adopted modified least squares methods. After examining the performances of these methods for time-varying systems, we propose a new method to deal with such a situation, study on the stability problem, and finally show the effectiveness of the method with a computer simulation example.

The external force disturbance is the one of the main causes that deteriorate the performance of the magnetic suspension. Thus, this paper develops a fuzzy estimator for gain scheduling control of magnetic suspension system suffering from the unknown disturbance. The propose fuzzy estimator computes the disturbance injected to the plant the gain scheduled controller generates the corresponding stabilizing control input associated with estimated disturbance. In the simulation results we confirm the novelty of the proposed control scheme comparing with the other method using a feedback linearization.

A torque trajectory control of the IPM synchronous motor using an adaptive input-output linearization technique is proposed. The input-output linearization is performed using the estimated torque output with the knowledge of machine parameters. The linearized model gives the output torque error under the variation of the flux linkage. To give a good torque tracking in the presence of the flux linkage variation, the flux linkage will be estimated where the adaptation law h derived by the Popov's hyperstability theory and the positivity concept. This estimated value is also used for the generation of the d-axis current command for the maximum torque control. Thus, a good torque tracking and the exact maximum torque-per-current operation will be obtained.
