Walking algorithms using push-off improve moving efficiency and disturbance rejection performance. However, the algorithm based on classical contact force control requires an exact model or a Force/Torque sensor. This paper proposes a novel contact force control algorithm based on neural networks. The proposed model is adapted to a linear quadratic regulator for position control and balance. The results demonstrate that this neural network-based model can accurately generate force and effectively reduce errors without requiring a sensor. The effectiveness of the algorithm is assessed with the realistic test model. Compared to the Jacobian-based calculation, our algorithm significantly improves the accuracy of the force control. One step simulation was used to analyze the robustness of the algorithm. In summary, this walking control algorithm generates a push-off force with precision and enables it to reject disturbance rapidly.

The design of robot systems controlled by cables can be relatively difficult when it is approached from the mathematical model of the mechanism, considering that its approach involves non-linearities associated with different components, such as cables and pulleys. In this work, a simple and practical decoupled control structure proposal that requires practically no mathematical analysis was developed for the position control of a planar cable-driven parallel robot (CDPR). This structure was implemented using non-linear fuzzy PID and classic PID controllers, allowing performance comparisons to be established. For the development of this research, first the structure of the control system was proposed, based on an analysis of the cables involved in the movement of the end-effector (EE) of the robot when they act independently for each axis. Then a tuning of rules was carried out for fuzzy PID controllers, and Ziegler–Nichols tuning was applied to classic PID controllers. Finally, simulations were performed in MATLAB with the Simulink and Simscape tools. The results obtained allowed us to observe the effectiveness of the proposed structure, with noticeably better performance obtained from the fuzzy PID controllers.
