In this brief, an adaptive nonsingular terminal sliding mode observer–based adaptive integral terminal sliding mode model-free control is proposed for the trajectory tracking control of the output torque of elastomer series elastic actuator–based manipulator. Considering the tip load and its external disturbance, an elastomer series elastic actuator–based manipulator model is established. In order to realize the output torque tracking control of elastomer series elastic actuator–based manipulator, by using the characteristics of elastomer series elastic actuator, the output torque control is transformed into position control. Based on the idea of model-free control, an ultra-local model is applied to approximate the dynamic of the manipulator, and all the model information is considered as an unknown lumped disturbance. The adaptive nonsingular terminal sliding mode observer is designed to estimate the lumped disturbance, and the absolute value of the tracking error is introduced into the sliding surface to make the selection of parameters more flexible. Then, on the basis of adaptive nonsingular terminal sliding mode observer, the adaptive integral terminal sliding mode model-free control is proposed under model-free control framework. The design and analysis of both observer and controller do not rely on accurate model information. Finally, the performance of the proposed method is verified by simulation results.

Actuators for physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) such as rehabilitation or assistive systems should generate the desired torque precisely. However, the resistive and inertia loads inherent in the actuators (e.g., friction, damping, and inertia) set challenges in the control of actuators in a force/torque mode. The resistive factors include nonlinear effects and should be considered in the controller design to generate the desired force accurately. Moreover, the uncertainties in the plant dynamics make the precise torque control difficult. In this paper, nonlinear control algorithms are exploited for a rotary series elastic actuator to generate the desired torque precisely in the presence of nonlinear resistive factors and modeling uncertainty. The sliding mode control smoothed by a boundary layer is applied to enhance the robustness for the modeling uncertainty without chattering phenomenon. In this paper, the rotary series elastic actuator (RSEA) is installed on the knee joint of an orthosis, and the thickness of the boundary layer is changed by gait phases in order to minimize the torque error without the chattering phenomenon. The performance of the proposed controller is verified by experiments with actual walking motions.
