Vibration is a physical phenomenon involving repeated oscillatory movements or fluctuations at certain frequency and typically undesirable in many applications since it may cause undue failure or damage to the system. In this paper, the vibration of a three degree-of-freedom (DOF) model representing a short length drive shaft has been effectively and robustly suppressed through the implementation of a novel Active Force Control (AFC) used in conjunction with a classic proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller. The shaft vibration caused by its support and constraint during its operation was simulated using MATLAB and Simulink considering a number of operating and loading conditions. The results proved that when a pure PID controller was implemented, the vibration is indeed reduced but at the expense of longer execution time and producing noticeable frequency oscillation with slight offset. On the other hand, when the AFC loop was engaged by adding it directly in series with the PID controller (PID+AFC) to produce a 2 DOF controller without any need to further tune the PID controller gains, the vibration is significantly reduced with the amplitude hovering a zero datum without any offset and yielding an extremely low frequency trending.

Control Scheme

The active force control (AFC) method is known as a robust control scheme that dramatically enhances the performance of a robot arm particularly in compensating the disturbance effects. The main task of the AFC method is to estimate the inertia matrix in the feedback loop to provide the correct (motor) torque required to cancel out these disturbances. Several intelligent control schemes have already been introduced to enhance the estimation methods of acquiring the inertia matrix such as those using neural network, iterative learning and fuzzy logic. In this paper, we propose an alternative scheme called Knowledge-Based Trajectory Error Pattern Method (KBTEPM) to suppress the trajectory track error of the AFC scheme. The knowledge is developed from the trajectory track error characteristic based on the previous experimental results of the crude approximation method. It produces a unique, new and desirable error pattern when a trajectory command is forced. An experimental study was performed using simulation work on the AFC scheme with KBTEPM applied to a two-planar manipulator in which a set of rule-based algorithm is derived. A number of previous AFC schemes are also reviewed as benchmark. The simulation results show that the AFC-KBTEPM scheme successfully reduces the trajectory track error significantly even in the presence of the introduced disturbances.Key Words:  Active force control, estimated inertia matrix, robot arm, trajectory error pattern, knowledge-based.

Kawalan jitu dan lasak bagi satu sistem lengan robot atau pengolah adalah amat penting terutama sekali jika sistem mengalami pelbagai bentuk bebanan dan keadaan pengendalian. Kertas kerja ini memaparkan satu kaedah baru dan lasak untuk mengawal lengan robot menggunakan teknik pembelajaran secara berlelaran yang dimuatkan dalam strategi kawalan daya aktif. Sebanyak dua algoritma pembelajaran utama digunakan dalam kajian – yang pertama digunakan untuk menala gandaan pengawal secara automatik manakala yang satu lagi pula untuk menganggarkan matriks inersia pengolah. Kedua-dua parameter ini dihasilkan secara adaptif dan dalam talian ketika robot sedang menjalankan tugas menjejak trajektori dalam persekitaran tindakan daya gangguan. Dalam kajian ini, pengetahuan awal tentang kedua–dua nilai gandaan pengawal dan anggaran matriks inersia tidak wujud. Dengan demikian, suatu skema kawalan yang jitu dan lasak terhasil. Keberkesanan kaedah yang dicadangkan dapat ditentusahkan melalui hasil kajian yang diperoleh dan dibentangkan dalam kertas kerja ini. Kata kunci: Adaptif; kawalan daya aktif; pembelajaran berlelaran; matriks inersia; gandaan pengawal The robust and accurate control of a robotic arm or manipulator are of prime importance especially if the system is subjected to varying forms of loading and operating conditions. The paper highlights a novel and robust method to control a robotic arm using an iterative learning technique embedded in an active force control strategy. Two main iterative learning algorithms are utilized in the study – the first is used to automatically tune the controller gains while the second to estimate the inertia matrix of the manipulator. These parameters are adaptively computed on-line while the robot is executing a trajectory tracking task and subject to some forms of external disturbances. No priori knowledge of both the controller gains and the estimated inertia matrix are ever assumed in the study. In this way, an adaptive and robust control scheme is derived. The effectiveness of the method is verified and can be seen from the results of the work presented in this paper.

Friction Induced Vibration

This paper presents friction-induced vibration (FIV) caused by combined mode-coupling and negative damping effects in a simple FIV model. In doing so, a new four-degree-of-freedom linear model which consists of a slider and a block is proposed and then simulated using MATLAB/Simulink. Stability or instability of the FIV model is defined by the convergence or divergence of time domain responses of the slider and the block. Having found critical slope of friction-velocity characteristics that generate instabilities in the model, a conventional closed loop proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller is first introduced into the main model in order to attenuate the vibration level and subsequently to suppress it. Later, the model is integrated with the active force control (AFC) element to effectively reject the disturbance and reduce the vibrations. It is found that the integrated PID-AFC scheme is effective in reducing vibration compared to the pure PID controller alone. Thus, the proposed control scheme can be one of the potential solutions to suppress vibration in a friction-induced vibration system.

Robust Motion Control

A resolved acceleration control (RAC) and proportional-integral active force control (PIAFC) is proposed as an approach for the robust motion control of a mobile manipulator (MM) comprising a differentially driven wheeled mobile platform with a two-link planar arm mounted on top of the platform. The study emphasizes on the integrated kinematic and dynamic control strategy in which the RAC is used to manipulate the kinematic component while the PIAFC is implemented to compensate the dynamic effects including the bounded known/unknown disturbances and uncertainties. The effectivenss and robustness of the proposed scheme are investigated through a rigorous simulation study and later complemented with experimental results obtained through a number of experiments performed on a fully developed working prototype in a laboratory environment. A number of disturbances in the form of vibratory and impact forces are deliberately introduced into the system to evaluate the system performances. The investigation clearly demonstrates the extreme robustness feature of the proposed control scheme compared to other systems considered in the study.
