  2. 1. Modeling and Control of Flexible Manipulators

    Author : Stig Moberg; Svante Gunnarsson; Bruno Siciliano; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modeling; identification; control; robot manipulator; DAE; flexible multibody dynamics; inverse dynamics; benchmark; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Industrial robot manipulators are general-purpose machines used for industrial automation in order to increase productivity, flexibility, and product quality. Other reasons for using industrial robots are cost saving, and elimination of hazardous and unpleasant work. READ MORE

  5. 3. Minimum-time sliding mode control of robot manipulators

    Author : Boyko Iliev; Ivan Kalaykov; Krzysztof Kozlowski; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; minimum-time sliding mode control; sliding mode control; maximum-slope sliding lines; Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems; robot manipulators; reglerteknik; Automatic control; Reglerteknik; Reglerteknik; Automatic Control;

    Abstract : Robot manipulators have a complex and highly nonlinear dynamics, accompanied with a high degree of uncertainty. These properties make them difficult for time-optimal control. The theory of sliding mode control can provide methods, able to cope with the uncertainty and nonlinearity in the system. READ MORE

  6. 4. Coordination, Consensus and Communication in Multi-robot Control Systems

    Author : Alberto Speranzon; Karl Henrik Johansson; George J. Pappas; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multi-robot Coordination; Intelligent Control; Control under Communication Constraints; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Analysis, design and implementation of cooperative control strategies for multi-robot systems under communication constraints is the topic of this thesis. Motivated by a rapidly growing number of applications with networked robots and other vehicles, fundamental limits on the achievable collaborative behavior are studied for large teams of autonomous agents.

  7. 5. 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
