In this paper, we extend the phase-plane based closed-loop scheme of implementing commands shaped with vibration-reduction filters. A generalized shaping filter is considered in this work which can have negative impulse intensities and different acceleration and deceleration limits. Switching conditions are derived in terms of the filter parameters for both convolution-based and closed-form based shaping techniques. Analytical expressions are provided for the switching curves and various schemes are discussed for selecting appropriate phase-planes and implementing shaped-commands on real-time servomechanisms.

This paper describes the design of closed-loop control laws for servomechanisms with one dominant flexible mode. An input shaping technique is employed to alter the rigid body phase-plane trajectory that is used in time-optimal servomechanisms. The resulting controllers lead to near time-optimal performance without unwanted residual vibrations. After the basic technique is outlined for a system with one undamped flexible mode, extensions are given considering different acceleration and deceleration capabilities, damping, and slew rate limits.

A parallel locomotion mechanism can be defined as “a mechanism with parallel configuration that has discrete contact with respect to the ground which renders a platform the ability to move”. The actuated spoke wheel robot IMPASS (Intelligent Mobility Platform with Active Spoke System) presented in this paper serves as an example of such locomotion mechanisms. The current prototype of IMPASS has two actuated spoke wheels and one passive tail with its lower portion designed as convex surface. The robot is considered as a mechanism with variable topologies (MVTs) because of its metamorphic configuration. Closed-form solutions to the kinematics of the variable topologies are developed and verified with numerical simulations. The analytical expressions to these solutions allow themselves to be used directly in the real-time motion planning and monitoring of the robot.

To simulate echoes from the earth’s surface in the low flight mode, it is necessary to reproduce reliably the delayed reflected sounding signal of the radar in real time. For this, it is necessary to be able to calculate accurately and quickly the dependence of the distance to the object being measured from the angular position of the line of sight of the radar station. Obviously, the simplest expressions for calculating the range can be obtained for a segment or a plane. In the text of the article, analytical expressions for the calculation of range for two-dimensional and three-dimensional cases are obtained. Methods of statistical physics, vector algebra, and the theory of the radar of extended objects were used. Since the calculation of the dependence of the range of the object to the target from the angular position of the line of sight is carried out on the analytical expressions found in the paper, the result obtained is accurate, and due to the relative simplicity of the expressions obtained, the calculation does not require much time.

Selection Of

The main goal of this study is to evaluate how to optimally select the best vibrotactile pattern to be used in a closed loop control of upper limb myoelectric prostheses as a feedback of the exerted force. To that end, we assessed both the selection of actuation patterns and the effects of the selection of frequency and amplitude parameters to discriminate between different feedback levels. A single vibrotactile actuator has been used to deliver the vibrations to subjects participating in the experiments. The results show no difference between pattern shapes in terms of feedback perception. Similarly, changes in amplitude level do not reflect significant improvement compared to changes in frequency. However, decreasing the number of feedback levels increases the accuracy of feedback perception and subject-specific variations are high for particular participants, showing that a fine-tuning of the parameters is necessary in a real-time application to upper limb prosthetics. In future works, the effects of training, location, and number of actuators will be assessed. This optimized selection will be tested in a real-time proportional myocontrol of a prosthetic hand.
