In this paper, we propose a robust visual feedback controller with integral action for tracking control of n-link robot manipulators in the presence of constant bounded parametric uncertainties. The proposed control input has robustness to the parametric uncertainty and reduces tracking error in the steady-state. The stability of the closed-loop system is shown by Lyapunov method. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown by simulation results on the 5-link robot manipulators with two degree of freedom.

This paper proposes a stability condition in discrete-time affine Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems with parametric uncertainties and then, introduces the design method of a fuzzy-model-based controller which guarantees the stability. The analysis is based on Lyapunov functions that are continuous and piecewise quadratic. The search for a piecewise quadratic Lyapunov function can be represented in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs).

When a robot manipulator performs some task like grinding or assembling, not only the position control but also the force control of the tools connected to the robot must be controlled. But at this time We were received the uncertainty problems of system information for the force control, for example disturbance, senor resolution and measurement noise. Therefore we proposed fuzzy logic control method instead of existing control theory for the robot manipulator control, for example PID control method. In this paper, We proposed hybrid position/force control of robot manipulator using fuzzy logic control method. To show the validity of the proposed fuzzy controller, We compared fuzzy controller with conventional PID controller.

The technique of backstepping have can avoid cancellations of useful nonlinearities. It is widely used in nonlinear adaptive control. But it is difficult to use this technique for uncertain nonlinear systems. Sliding mode control has robustness and application with feedback linearization. This paper shows that the robustness can be used for back stopping technique to solve the uncertainty problem and to improve the scalar design problem using Control Lyapunov function which is the motivation of back stepping technique with recursive design for high-order systems. In the respect of SMC, the result of this paper does not need to satisfy the matching condition.

This paper considers a rough neurocomputing approach to the design of the classify layer of a Brooks architecture for a robot control system. The Paradigm for neurocomputing that has its roots in rough set theory, and works well in cases where there is uncertainty about the values of measurements used to make decisions. In the case of the line-crawling robot (LCR) described in this paper, rough neurocomputing is used to classify sometimes noisy signals from sensors. The LCR is a robot designed to crawl along high-voltage transmission lines where noisy sensor signals are common because of the electromagnetic field surrounding conductors. In rough neurocomputing, training a network of neurons...

The analysis of the two-tone intermodulation distortion of multistage two-ports with gain and mismatching losses is presented with simplified two-port analyses and statistical viewpoint. The uncertainty obtained from unknown phase angles of the intermodulation distortion signals to the system designer is reduced using stochastic process, hence improving the accuracy of the solution. Based on the dc power dependance of third-order intercept point of each stage, the new efficient method for improving the total intercept point is also suggested with only the relation of dc power and available power gain criteria. Experimental verification on specific amplifiers used for cellular mobile communication comparing predicted and measured intercept points for various power conditions is presented.

This paper considers a robust output feedback $H\infty$ controller design method for singular systems with time-varying delay in state and parameter uncertainty in system matrix by an LMI approach and observer based technique, which can be solved efficiently by convex optimization. The sufficient condition for the existence of controller and the controller design method are presented by strict LMI(linear matrix inequality) approach. Since the obtained condition can be expressed as an LMI form, all variables including feedback gain and observer gain can be calculated simultaneously by Schur complement and changes of variables.

This paper proposes a systematic design methodology for high-speed/high-precision servomechanisms by using a disturbance observer. A multiplicative uncertainty model and a two degree-of-freedom controller composed of a disturbance observer (DOB) and a PD controller are considered as subsystems. Analysis of the system performance, such as internal stability and bandwidth of a servomechanism according to subsystem parameters is conducted for better understanding of the dynamic behavior and interactions among the subsystem parameters. Then, an integrated design methodology, where the interactions are considered simultaneously, is applied to design processes of the servomechanism. The tradeoff relationship between disturbance suppression and measurement noise rejection of the DOB is considered through the design process. Numerical case studies show the improved possibility to evaluate and optimize the dynamic motion performance of the servomechanism. Moreover, the disturbance observer designed based on the proposed design methodology yields excellent disturbance suppression performance.

A disturbance observer-based vehicle stability controller is proposed in this paper. The lumped disturbance to the vehicle yaw rate dynamics caused by the uncertain factors such as uncertain tire forces and parameters is estimated by the disturbance observer, which is utilized by the robust controller to stabilize the lateral dynamics of the vehicle. The dynamics of the hydraulic actuator is incorporated in the vehicle stability controller design using the model reduction technique. Modular control design methodology is adopted to effectively deal with the mismatched uncertainty. Simulation results indicate that the proposed disturbance observer-based vehicle stability controller can achieve the desired reference tracking performance as well as sufficient level of robustness.

Ultrasonic inspection system is consisted of the operator, equipment and procedure. The reliability of results in ultrasonic inspection is affected by its ability. Furthermore, the reliability of nondestructive testing is influenced by the inspection environment, other materials and types of defect. Therefore, it is very difficult to estimate the reliability of NDT due to various factors. In this study, the probability of detection, used logistic probability model and Monte Carlo simulation, estimated the reliability of ultrasonic inspection. The utility of the NDT reliability assesment is verified by the analysis of the data from round robin test applied these models.
