In this paper, a new fractional order chaotic system without equilibrium is proposed, analytically and numerically investigated, and numerically and experimentally tested. The analytical and numerical investigations were used to describe the system’s dynamical behaviors including the system equilibria, the chaotic attractors, the bifurcation diagrams, and the Lyapunov exponents. Based on the obtained dynamical behaviors, the system can excite hidden chaotic attractors since it has no equilibrium. Then, a synchronization mechanism based on the adaptive control theory was developed between two identical new systems (master and slave). The adaptive control laws are derived based on synchronization error dynamics of the state variables for the master and slave. Consequently, the update laws of the slave parameters are obtained, where the slave parameters are assumed to be uncertain and are estimated corresponding to the master parameters by the synchronization process. Furthermore, Arduino Due boards were used to implement the proposed system in order to demonstrate its practicality in real-world applications. The simulation experimental results were obtained by MATLAB and the Arduino Due boards, respectively, with a good consistency between the simulation results and the experimental results, indicating that the new fractional order chaotic system is capable of being employed in real-world applications.

Abstract In this paper, we study the analytical and experimental control of a 7-DOF robot manipulator. A model-free decentralized adaptive control strategy is presented for the tracking control of the manipulator. The problem formulation and experimental results demonstrate the computational efficiency and simplicity of the proposed method. The results presented here are one of the first known experiments on a redundant 7-DOF robot. The efficacy of the adaptive decentralized controller is demonstrated experimentally by using the Baxter robot to track a desired trajectory. Simulation and experimental results clearly demonstrate the versatility, tracking performance, and computational efficiency of this method.

This paper is concerned with the digital implementation and experimental evaluation of two adaptive controllers for robotic manipulators. The first is a continuous time model reference adaptive controller, and the second is a discrete time adaptive controller. The primary purpose of these adaptive controllers is to compensate for inertial variations due to changes in configuration and payload, as well as disturbances, such as Coulomb friction and/or gravitational forces. Experimental results are obtained from a laboratory test stand, which emulates an one-axis direct drive robot arm with variable inertia, as well as a Toshiba TSR-500V industrial robot. Experimental results from the test stand indicate that these adaptive control schemes are promising for the control of direct drive robot arms. Friction forces arising from the harmonic gear of the Toshiba robot were detrimental if not properly compensated. Because of a high gearing ratio, the advantage of adaptive control for the Toshiba arm could be shown only by detuning the controller.

Purpose The torque ripple and fault-tolerant capability are the two main problems for the switched reluctance motors (SRMs) in applications. The purpose of this paper, therefore, is to propose a novel 16/10 segmented SRM (SSRM) to reduce the torque ripple and improve the fault-tolerant capability in this work. Design/methodology/approach The stator of the proposed SSRM is composed of exciting and auxiliary stator poles, while the rotor consists of a series of discrete segments. The fault-tolerant and torque ripple characteristics of the proposed SSRM are studied by the finite element analysis (FEA) method. Meanwhile, the characteristics of the SSRM are compared with those of a conventional SRM with 8/6 stator/rotor poles. Finally, FEA and experimental results are provided to validate the static and dynamic characteristics of the proposed SSRM. Findings It is found that the proposed novel 16/10 SSRM for the application in the belt-driven starter generator (BSG) possesses these functions: less mutual inductance and high fault-tolerant capability. It is also found that the proposed SSRM provides lower torque ripple and higher output torque. Finally, the experimental results validate that the proposed SSRM runs with lower torque ripple, better output torque and fault-tolerant characteristics, making it an ideal candidate for the BSG and similar systems. Originality/value This paper presents the analysis of torque ripple and fault-tolerant capability for a 16/10 segmented switched reluctance motor in hybrid electric vehicles. Using FEA simulation and building a test bench to verify the proposed SSRM’s superiority in both torque ripple and fault-tolerant capability.
