This article presents a composite adaptive control method to improve the position-tracking performance of an electro-hydraulic system driven by dual constant displacement pump and dual servo motor named as a novel electro-hydraulic system with unknown disturbance. A composite adaptive controller based on backstepping method is designed to estimate the uncertainties of electro-hydraulic control system, including the damping coefficient and elastic modulus. In order to release the persistent excitation condition of conventional adaptive control, which is often infeasible in practice, a prediction error based on the online historical data is used to update the estimated parameters. Furthermore, a disturbance observer is used to estimate the disturbance including the unmeasurable load force, friction and other unmodeled disturbance. The experiment results are provided and compared with other methods to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, and the results have indicated that the proposed method has a better position-tracking performance with the convergent estimated parameters.

This paper presents the development of a resolved motion adaptive control which adopts the ideas of “resolved motion rate control” [8] and “resolved motion acceleration control” [10] to control a manipulator in Cartesian coordinates for various loading conditions. The proposed adaptive control is performed at the hand level and is based on the linearized perturbation system along a desired hand trajectory. The controlled system is characterized by feedforward and feedback components which can be computed separately and simultaneously. The feedforward component resolves the specified positions, velocities, and accelerations of the hand into a set of values of joint positions, velocities, and accelerations from which the nominal joint torques are computed using the Newton-Euler equations of motion to compensate all the interaction forces among the various joints. The feedback component consisting of recursive least square identification scheme and an optimal adaptive self-tuning controller for the linearized system computes the perturbation torques which reduce the manipulator hand position and velocity errors along the nominal hand trajectory. The feasibility of implementing the proposed adaptive control using present day low-cost microprocessors is explored.
