Significant research has been aimed at the development and control of teleoperator systems due to both the practical importance and the challenging theoretical nature of the problem. Two controllers are developed in this paper for a nonlinear teleoperator system that target coordination of the master and slave manipulators and passivity of the overall system. The first controller is proven to yield a semi-global asymptotic result in the presence of parametric uncertainty in the master and slave manipulator dynamic models. The second controller yields a global asymptotic result despite unmeasurable user and environmental input forces. To develop each controller, a transformation encodes the coordination and passivity objectives in the closed loop system. The coordinated system is forced to track a dynamic system to assist in meeting all control objectives. Finally, continuous nonlinear integral feedback terms are used to accommodate for incomplete system knowledge for both controllers. Lyapunov-based techniques are used to prove that all control objectives are met and that all signals are bounded.

SUMMARY A novel underwater vehicle configuration with an operating principle as the Sepiida animal is presented and developed in this paper. The mathematical equations describing the movements of the vehicle are obtained using the Newton–Euler approach. An analysis of the dynamic model is done for control purposes. A prototype and its embedded system are developed for validating analytically and experimentally the proposed mathematical representation. A real-time characterization of one mass is done to relate the pitch angle with the radio of displacement of the mass. In addition, first validation of the closed-loop system is done using a linear controller.

A dynamic model of injection molding developed from physical considerations is used to select PID gains for pressure control during the packing phase of thermo-plastic injection molding. The relative importance of various aspects of the model and values for particular physical parameters were identified experimentally. The controller gains were chosen by pole-zero cancellation and root-locus methods, resulting in good control performance. Both open and closed-loop system responses were predicted and verified, with good overall agreement.

This paper investigates the problems of stabilization and control for time-delay switched fuzzy systems using output feedback controller. Based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique, multiple Lyapunov method is used to obtain a sufficient condition for the existence of the controller for the output feedback. Then an algorithm is constructed to transform the sufficient condition into a LMI form, thus obtaining a method for designing the controller. The designed controller guarantees the closed-loop system to be asympototically stable. A numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of our method.

The optimum feedback control of controllable linear distributed stationary systems is discussed. A linear closed-loop system is assured by restricting the criterion to be the integral of quadratics in the state and control. Feedback is obtained by expansion of the linear closed-loop equation in terms of uncoupled modes. By incorporating symbolic functions into the formulation, one can treat boundary condition control and point observable systems that are null-delta controllable.

A multi-objective robust decentralized control method is proposed for the interconnected fuzzy singularly perturbed models. Such decentralized controller can guarantee the whole closed-loop system is asymptotically stable even when the multi-time-scale subsystems are interactional. Besides, the disturbance attenuation performance, dynamic performance and control amplitude can be optimized synthetically. The simulations illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Piecewise affine (PWA) systems belong to a subclass of switched systems and provide good flexibility and traceability for modeling a variety of nonlinear systems. In this paper, application of the PWA system framework to the modeling and control of an automotive all-wheel drive (AWD) clutch system is presented. The open-loop system is first modeled as a PWA system, followed by the design of a piecewise linear (i.e., switched) feedback controller. The stability of the closed-loop system, including model uncertainty and time delays, is examined using linear matrix inequalities based on Lyapunov theory. Finally, the responses of the closed-loop system under step and sine reference signals and temperature disturbance signals are simulated to illustrate the effectiveness of the design.

Abstract The main impedance control schemes in the task space require accurate knowledge of the kinematics and dynamics of the robotic system to be controlled. In order to eliminate this dependence and preserve the structure of this kind of algorithms, this paper presents an adaptive impedance control approach to robot manipulators with kinematic and dynamic parametric uncertainty. The proposed scheme is an inverse dynamics control law that leads to the closed-loop system having a PD structure whose equilibrium point converges asymptotically to zero according to the formal stability analysis in the Lyapunov sense. In addition, the general structure of the scheme is composed of continuous functions and includes the modeling of most of the physical phenomena present in the dynamics of the robotic system. The main feature of this control scheme is that it allows precise path tracking in both free and constrained spaces (if the robot is in contact with the environment). The proper behavior of the closed-loop system is validated using a two degree-of-freedom robotic arm. For this benchmark good results were obtained and the control objective was achieved despite neglecting non modeled dynamics, such as viscous and Coulomb friction.

This study constitutes a preliminary evaluation of the utilization of auditory feedback for the acquisition of normal speech in normal speaking children and children having functional articulatory errors. The degree to which this is utilized for the organization and control of motor activity was inferred by delaying auditory feedback in time and quantitating the resulting disturbances in the speech behaviour. Evidence was found to support the following hypotheses: I. There is a breakdown of speech under DAF. 2: Children with multiple articulatory disorders exhibit less severe breakdown effects under DAF than their normal peers. 3. There appears to be a strong relationship between increasing age and articulatory ability. 4. There tends to be a relationship between increasing age and the breakdown of speech under DAF. 5. Monitoring of speech is a highly skilled control system which tends to develop with age and experience, and is not operating as strongly in the child with articulation-defects. From the results of the study, it seems that the auditory feedback monitoring loop for speech is not operating as successfully in the child with multiple articulatory errors as it operates in the normal child, and that the development of a closed loop system appears to be retarded in some way.

Computer simulation was used to study WSP (Wheel Slide Protection) system in this paper. The model of WSP system was built. Simulation model can avoid real vehicle tests or laboratory bench which will cost a lot of time and expenses. The WSP system model was composed of pneumatic model, mechanical model and control model. Three models were connected with each other and formed a closed loop system. The result shows that the simulation model has most characteristics of WSP system. The model can be used in the study of WSP system instead of the real system.

Рассматривается задача воспроизведения в искусственных объектах способности естественных систем к самовосстановлению вследствие существования в них замкнутого круговорота вещества и энергии. Показано, что создание замкнутого жизненного цикла в системе предполагает реализацию в ней процессов восстановления ресурсов и их накопления в виде внутренних резервов, расходуемых системой в неблагоприятных условиях существования. Получена функциональная схема системы с замкнутым циклом и предложена математическая модель её функционирования в виде дискретного однородного марковского процесса без последействия. Обнаружено, что введение в систему внутреннего резервирования требует рассмотрения двух альтернативных вариантов модели системы: варианта для случая, в котором объём резервов ограничен возможностями каналов восстановления в системе, и варианта, в котором указанное ограничение отсутствует. Составлены графы состояний системы для указанных режимов функционирования и получены выражения для финальных вероятностей этих состояний. На основе полученных финальных вероятностей составлены аналитические расчётные соотношения для характеристик эффективности системы с замкнутым циклом. В качестве основной характеристики эффективности такого рода систем предлагается использовать вероятность полного функционирования системы, т.е. вероятность её работы с использованием всего объёма активных ресурсов. Представлен числовой пример, подтверждающий работоспособность предложенной модели, и проведён сопоставительный анализ вариантов управления эффективностью замкнутой системы путём изменения объёма резервов, количества процессов восстановления и интенсивности этих процессов. Выявлено доминирующее значение внутренних резервов при обеспечении заданных показателей эффективности системы с замкнутым циклом Here we consider the problem of reproduction of the ability of natural systems to self-repair in artificial objects due to the existence of a closed loop of matter and energy in them. We show that the creation of a closed life cycle in the system presupposes the implementation of the process of restoring resources and their accumulation in the form of internal reserves consumed by the system in unfavorable conditions of existence. We obtained a functional diagram of a closed-loop system and proposed a mathematical model of its functioning in the form of a discrete homogeneous Markov process without aftereffect. We found that the introduction of internal redundancy into the system requires consideration of two alternative options for the system model: the option for the case in which the volume of reserves is limited by the capabilities of the recovery channels in the system, and the option in which the specified limitation is absent. We compiled the graphs of the states of the system for the specified modes of operation and obtained expressions for the final probabilities of these states. On the basis of the obtained final probabilities, we got analytical design ratios for the characteristics of the efficiency of a system with a closed loop. As the main characteristic of the efficiency of such systems, we propose to use the probability of the complete functioning of the system, i.e. the probability of its work using the entire volume of active resources. We present a numerical example that confirms the performance of the proposed model, and carried out a comparative analysis of options for managing the efficiency of a closed-loop system by changing the volume of reserves, the number of recovery processes and the intensity of these processes. We revealed the dominant value of internal reserves while ensuring the specified performance indicators of a closed-loop system
