Robust fuzzy tracking control for robotic manipulators

In this paper, a stable adaptive fuzzy-based tracking control is developed for robot systems with parameter uncertainties and external disturbance. First, a fuzzy logic system is introduced to approximate the unknown robotic dynamics by using adaptive algorithm. Next, the effect of system uncertainties and external disturbance is removed by employing an integral sliding mode control algorithm. Consequently, a hybrid fuzzy adaptive robust controller is developed such that the resulting closed-loop robot system is stable and the trajectory tracking performance is guaranteed. The proposed controller is appropriate for the robust tracking of robotic systems with system uncertainties. The validity of the control scheme is shown by computer simulation of a two-link robotic manipulator.     

Active Disturbance Rejection Control of a Magnetic Suspension System

This paper proposes a novel output feedback control scheme for robust stabilization and tracking tasks in a magnetic suspension system. Active disturbance rejection control, differential flatness and on‐line asymptotic disturbance estimation are properly used for the proposed control synthesis. The controlled system is subjected to a wide spectrum of unknown significant matched and unmatched disturbances due to external forces and voltages, parametric uncertainties, control and state‐dependent perturbations and possibly input unmodeled dynamics. The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed active disturbance control scheme is verified by computer simulations for the robust tracking of a rest‐to‐rest reference position trajectory specified to firstly stabilize the suspended mass at a desired vertical position and next transfer it to another equilibrium position for both continuous and switched control voltage signals.     

Asymptotically Stable Walking of a Five-Link Underactuated 3-D Bipedal Robot

This paper presents three feedback controllers that achieve an asymptotically stable, periodic, and fast walking gait for a 3-D bipedal robot consisting of a torso, revolute knees, and passive (unactuated) point feet. The walking surface is assumed to be rigid and flat; the contact between the robot and the walking surface is assumed to inhibit yaw rotation. The studied robot has 8 DOF in the single support phase and six actuators. In addition to the reduced number of actuators, the interest of studying robots with point feet is that the feedback control solution must explicitly account for the robot's natural dynamics in order to achieve balance while walking. We use an extension of the method of virtual constraints and hybrid zero dynamics (HZD), a very successful method for planar bipeds, in order to simultaneously compute a periodic orbit and an autonomous feedback controller that realizes the orbit, for a 3-D (spatial) bipedal walking robot. This method allows the computations for the controller design and the periodic orbit to be carried out on a 2-DOF subsystem of the 8-DOF robot model. The stability of the walking gait under closed-loop control is evaluated with the linearization of the restricted PoincarÉ map of the HZD. Most periodic walking gaits for this robot are unstable when the controlled outputs are selected to be the actuated coordinates. Three strategies are explored to produce stable walking. The first strategy consists of imposing a stability condition during the search of a periodic gait by optimization. The second strategy uses an event-based controller to modify the eigenvalues of the (linearized) PoincarÉ map. In the third approach, the effect of output selection on the zero dynamics is discussed and a pertinent choice of outputs is proposed, leading to stabilization without the use of a supplemental event-based controller.

Robust adaptive control for mobile manipulators

This paper addresses the trajectory tracking control of a nonholonomic wheeled mobile manipulator with parameter uncertainties and disturbances. The proposed algorithm adopts a robust adaptive control strategy where parametric uncertainties are compensated by adaptive update techniques and the disturbances are suppressed. A kinematic controller is first designed to make the robot follow a desired end-effector and platform trajectories in task space coordinates simultaneously. Then, an adaptive control scheme is proposed, which ensures that the trajectories are accurately tracked even in the presence of external disturbances and uncertainties. The system stability and the convergence of tracking errors to zero are rigorously proven using Lyapunov theory. Simulations results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed robust adaptive control law in comparison with a sliding mode controller.     

Repetitive control of electrically driven robot manipulators

This article presents a novel robust discrete repetitive control of electrically driven robot manipulators for tracking of a periodic trajectory. We propose a novel model, which presents the highly non-linear dynamics of robot manipulator in the form of linear discrete-time time-varying system. Based on the proposed model, we develop a two-term control law. The first term is an ordinary time-optimal and minimum-norm (TOMN) control by employing parametric controllers to guarantee stability. The second term is a novel robust control to improve the control performance in the face of uncertainties. The robust control estimates and compensates uncertainties including the parametric uncertainty, unmodelled dynamics and external disturbances. Performance of the proposed method is compared with two discrete methods, namely the TOMN control and an adaptive iterative learning (AIL) control. Simulation results confirm superiority of the proposed method in terms of the convergence speed and precision.     

Adaptive sliding mode control for trajectory tracking of nonholonomic mobile robot with uncertain kinematics and dynamics

ABSTRACT

This article designs a novel adaptive trajectory tracking controller for nonholonomic wheeled mobile robot under kinematic and dynamic uncertainties. A new velocity controller, in which kinematic parameter is estimated, produces velocity command of the robot. The designed adaptive sliding mode dynamic controller incorporates an estimator term to compensate for the external disturbances and dynamic uncertainties and a feedback term to improve the closed-loop stability and account for the estimation error of external disturbances. The system stability is analyzed using Lyapunov theory. Computer simulations affirm the robustness of the designed control scheme.

A Disturbance Rejection Measure for Limit Cycle Walkers: The Gait Sensitivity Norm

The construction of more capable bipedal robots highly depends on the ability to measure their performance. This performance is often measured in terms of speed or energy efficiency, but these properties are secondary to the robot's ability to prevent falling given the inevitable presence of disturbances, i.e., its disturbance rejection. Existing disturbance rejection measures (zero moment point, basin of attraction, Floquet multipliers) are unsatisfactory due to conservative assumptions, long computation times, or bad correlation to actual disturbance rejection. This paper introduces a new measure called the Gait Sensitivity Norm that combines a short calculation time with good correlation to actual disturbance rejection. It is especially suitable for implementation on limit cycle walkers, a class of bipeds that currently excels in terms of energy efficiency, but still has limited disturbance rejection capabilities. The paper contains an explanation of the Gait Sensitivity Norm and a validation of its value on a simple walking model as well as on a real bipedal robot. The disturbance rejection of the simple model is studied for variations of floor slope, foot radius, and hip spring stiffness. We show that the calculation speed is as fast as the standard Floquet multiplier analysis, while the actual disturbance rejection is correctly predicted with 93% correlation on average.
