Attainment of high-performance motion/velocity control objectives for the Direct-Drive Rotary (DDR) torque motor should fully consider practical nonlinearities in controller design, such as dynamic friction. The LuGre model has been widely utilized to describe nonlinear friction behavior; however, parameter identification for the LuGre model remains a challenge. A new dynamic friction parameter identification method for LuGre model is proposed in this study. Static parameters are identified through a series of constant velocity experiments, while dynamic parameters are obtained through a presliding process. Novel evolutionary algorithm (NEA) is utilized to increase identification accuracy. Experimental results gathered from the identification experiments conducted in the study for a practical DDR torque motor control system validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This work proposes a simple but general experimental approach including the rig design and measurement procedure to carry out a wide range of experiments required for identifying parameters for LuGre dynamic friction model. The design choice is based on accuracy of the estimated friction and flexibility in terms of changing contact conditions. The experimental results allow a complete LuGre model, which facilitates, but not limited to, other advanced friction modeling and high performance controller design if needed. In addition, several well-known dynamic friction features (varying break-away force, friction lag and presliding) are successfully demonstrated by our rig, which indicates the adequacy of our approach for capturing highly sophisticated and dynamic friction behavior over a wide range of operating conditions. The proposed set-up and the produced experimental data are believed to greatly facilitate the development of advanced friction compensation and modeling in friction affected mechanisms.

Considering the joint elasticity, a novel dynamic parameter identification method is proposed for general industrial robots only with motor encoders. Firstly, the unknown parameters of the elastic joint dynamic model are analyzed and divided into two types. The first type is the motion-independent parameter only including the joint stiffness, which can be identified by the static force/torque-deformation experiments without the dynamic model. The second type is the motion-dependent parameter composed of the rest of the parameters, which needs the dynamic excitation experiments. Therefore, these two types of parameters can be identified separately. Meanwhile, it is found that the rotor inertia parameters can be obtained from the manufacturer, which reduces the identification difficulty of other parameters. After obtaining the rotor inertia and joint stiffness, an approximate processing algorithm is proposed considering the motor friction to establish the linear identification model of other parameters. Hence, the least squares can be employed to identify the parameters, and the independence of the inertia and joint viscous friction parameters are not affected. Meanwhile, the exciting trajectories can be optimized throughout the robot workspace, which reduces the effect of measurement noise on identification accuracy. With the proposed separated identification strategy and approximate processing algorithm, the dynamic parameters can be obtained precisely without double encoders on each joint. Finally, a series of simulations are conducted to evaluate the good performance of the proposed method.

With increasing size and flexibility of modern grid-connected wind turbines, advanced control algorithms are urgently needed, especially for multi-degree-of-freedom control of blade pitches and sizable rotor. However, complex dynamics of wind turbines are difficult to be modeled in a simplified state-space form for advanced control design considering stability. In this paper, grey-box parameter identification of critical mechanical models is systematically studied without excitation experiment, and applicabilities of different methods are compared from views of control design. Firstly, through mechanism analysis, the Hammerstein structure is adopted for mechanical-side modeling of wind turbines. Under closed-loop control across the whole wind speed range, structural identifiability of the drive-train model is analyzed in qualitation. Then, mutual information calculation among identified variables is used to quantitatively reveal the relationship between identification accuracy and variables’ relevance. Then, the methods such as subspace identification, recursive least square identification and optimal identification are compared for a two-mass model and tower model. At last, through the high-fidelity simulation demo of a 2 MW wind turbine in the GH Bladed software, multivariable datasets are produced for studying. The results show that the Hammerstein structure is effective for simplify the modeling process where closed-loop identification of a two-mass model without excitation experiment is feasible. Meanwhile, it is found that variables’ relevance has obvious influence on identification accuracy where mutual information is a good indicator. Higher mutual information often yields better accuracy. Additionally, three identification methods have diverse performance levels, showing their application potentials for different control design algorithms. In contrast, grey-box optimal parameter identification is the most promising for advanced control design considering stability, although its simplified representation of complex mechanical dynamics needs additional dynamic compensation which will be studied in future.

This paper presents an improved design, complete analysis, and prototype development of high torque-to-mass ratio Magneto-Rheological (MR) clutches. The proposed MR clutches are intended as the main actuation mechanism of a robotic manipulator with five degrees of freedom. Multiple steps to increase the toque-to-mass ratio of the clutch are evaluated and implemented in one design. First, we focus on the Hall sensors’ configuration. Our proposed MR clutches feature embedded Hall sensors for the indirect torque measurement. A new arrangement of the sensors with no effect on the magnetic reluctance of the clutch is presented. Second, we improve the magnetization of the MR clutch. We utilize a new hybrid design that features a combination of an electromagnetic coil and a permanent magnet for improved torque-to-mass ratio. Third, the gap size reduction in the hybrid MR clutch is introduced and the effect of such reduction on maximum torque and the dynamic range of MR clutch is investigated. Finally, the design for a pair of MR clutches with a shared magnetic core for antagonistic actuation of the robot joint is presented and experimentally validated. The details of each approach are discussed and the results of the finite element analysis are used to highlight the required engineering steps and to demonstrate the improvements achieved. Using the proposed design, several prototypes of the MR clutch with various torque capacities ranging from 15 to 200 N·m are developed, assembled, and tested. The experimental results demonstrate the performance of the proposed design and validate the accuracy of the analysis used for the development.

Recently, deep learning (DL) has been successfully applied in automatic target recognition (ATR) tasks of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. However, limited by the lack of SAR image target datasets and the high cost of labeling, these existing DL based approaches can only accurately recognize the target in the training dataset. Therefore, high precision identification of unknown SAR targets in practical applications is one of the important capabilities that the SAR–ATR system should equip. To this end, we propose a novel DL based identification method for unknown SAR targets with joint discrimination. First of all, the feature extraction network (FEN) trained on a limited dataset is used to extract the SAR target features, and then the unknown targets are roughly identified from the known targets by computing the Kullback–Leibler divergence (KLD) of the target feature vectors. For the targets that cannot be distinguished by KLD, their feature vectors perform t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) dimensionality reduction processing to calculate the relative position angle (RPA). Finally, the known and unknown targets are finely identified based on RPA. Experimental results conducted on the MSTAR dataset demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve higher identification accuracy of unknown SAR targets than existing methods while maintaining high recognition accuracy of known targets.
