  2. 6. Contributions to motion planning and orbital stabilization : case studies: Furuta pendulum swing up, inertia wheel oscillations and biped robot walking

    Author : Pedro Xavier Miranda La Hera; Anton Shiriaev; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Under-actuated Systems; Orbital Exponential Stability; Motion Planning; Virtual Constraints; Walking robots; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Generating and stabilizing periodic motions in nonlinear systems is a challenging task. In the control system community this topic is also known as limit cycle control. In recent years a framework known as Virtual Holonomic Constraints (VHC) has been developed as one of the solutions to this problem. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis proposes methodologies to improve heavy vehicle design by reducing the total cost of ownership and by increasing energy efficiency and safety. Environmental issues, consumers expectations and the growing demand for freight transport have created a competitive environment in providing better transportation solutions. READ MORE

  5. 8. Underactuated mechanical systems : Contributions to trajectory planning, analysis, and control

    Author : Pedro La Hera; Anton Shiriaev; Ambarish Goswami; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Underactuated mechanical systems; mechanical systems with impacts; trajectory planning; periodic trajectories; orbital stabilization; walking robots; virtual holonomic constraints; transverse linearization; Automatic control; Reglerteknik; Automatic Control; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Nature and its variety of motion forms have inspired new robot designs with inherentunderactuated dynamics. The fundamental characteristic of these controlled mechanicalsystems, called underactuated, is to have the number of actuators less than the number ofdegrees of freedom. READ MORE

  6. 9. Planning and Control of Cooperative Multi-Agent Manipulator-Endowed Systems

    Author : Christos Verginis; Dimos V. Dimarogonas; Pedro Lima; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multi-agent systems; Temporal logics; Cooperative manipulation; Motion planning; Control; Navigation; Action planning; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Multi-agent planning and control is an active and increasingly studied topic of research, with many practical applications, such as rescue missions, security, surveillance, and transportation. More specifically, cases that involve complex manipulator-endowed systems  deserve extra attention due to potential complex cooperative manipulation tasks and their interaction with the environment.

  7. 10. Compliance Control of Robot Manipulator for Safe Physical Human Robot Interaction

    Author : Muhammad Rehan Ahmed; Ivan Kalaykov; Kystof Kozlowksi; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Physical human robot interaction; collision safety; variable stiffness actuators; compliance control; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Automatic control; Reglerteknik; Reglerteknik; Automatic Control;

    Abstract : Inspiration from biological systems suggests that robots should demonstrate same level of capabilities that are embedded in biological systems in performing safe and successful interaction with the humans. The major challenge in physical human robot interaction tasks in anthropic environment is the safe sharing of robot work space such that robot will not cause harm or injury to the human under any operating condition.
