As an important driver element, the pneumatic artificial muscle (PAM) is widely used in industrial applications for many automation purposes thanks to their variety of advantages. The design of a stable robust position controller for PAM is difficult since it is a very nonlinear time-variant controlled plant because of the compressibility of air, air mass flow rate through the valve, etc. The main contribution of this paper is a robust position control method based on sliding mode for pneumatic muscle actuator. Finally, it presents experimental results.

A new enhanced adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control approach is proposed in this article with its good availability for application in control of a highly uncertain nonlinear two-link pneumatic artificial muscle manipulator. Stability demonstration of the robust convergence of the closed-loop pneumatic artificial muscle manipulator system based on a novel enhanced adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control is experimentally proved using Lyapunov stability theorem. Obtained result confirms that the new enhanced adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control method, applied to the two-link uncertain nonlinear pneumatic artificial muscle manipulator system, is fully investigated with better robustness and precision than the standard sliding mode control and fuzzy sliding mode control techniques.

Pneumatic muscle actuators (PMAs) have great potential in robotics and industrial applications. However, high non-linearities hamper the further applications in accurate performances. Pressure built-up process is highly non-linear due to non-linear elasticity of rubber tube of the PMA and air driving mode, and brings great challenges in approximation. This paper analyzes the experimental responses of charging and discharging process, respectively, and employs second-order linear system to model the charging and discharging dynamics inside PMA. Experiments are performed to validate the effectiveness of the established models and comparison between simulated curves and experimental data indicates that the built-up models can capture the dynamics of pressure changing processes inside PMA.

The Mathematical Model

A piston piezoelectric (PZT) pump has many advantages for the use of light actuators. How to deal with the contradiction between the intermittent oil supplying and position control precision is essential when designing the controller. In order to accurately control the output of the actuator, a backstepping sliding-mode control method based on the Lyapunov function is introduced, and the controller is designed on the basis of establishing the mathematical model of the system. The simulation results show that, compared with fuzzy PID and ordinary sliding-mode control, backstepping sliding-mode control has a stronger anti-jamming ability and tracking performance, and improves the control accuracy and stability of the piezoelectric pump-controlled actuator system.

Pneumatic Muscle

In this work a novel pneumatic artificial muscle is fabricated using golden muga silk and silicon rubber. It is assumed that the muscle force is a quadratic function of pressure. Here a single degree of freedom system is considered where a mass is supported by a spring-damper-and pneumatically actuated muscle. While the spring-mass damper is a passive system, the addition of pneumatic muscle makes the system active. The dynamic analysis of this system is carried out by developing the equation of motion which contains multi-frequency excitations with both forced and parametric excitations. Using method of multiple scales the reduced equations are developed for simple and principal parametric resonance conditions. The time response obtained using method of multiple scales have been compared with those obtained by solving the original equation of motion numerically. Using both time response and phase portraits, variation of few systems parameters have been carried out. This work may find application in developing wearable device and robotic device for rehabilitation purpose.

A robust control scheme is proposed for the position control of the electrohydrostatic actuator (EHA) when considering hardware saturation, load disturbance, and lumped system uncertainties and nonlinearities. To reduce overshoot due to a saturation of electric motor and to realize robustness against load disturbance and lumped system uncertainties such as varying parameters and modeling error, this paper proposes an adaptive antiwindup PID sliding mode scheme as a robust position controller for the EHA system. An optimal PID controller and an optimal anti-windup PID controller are also designed to compare control performance. An EHA prototype is developed, carrying out system modeling and parameter identification in designing the position controller. The simply identified linear model serves as the basis for the design of the position controllers, while the robustness of the control systems is compared by experiments. The adaptive anti-windup PID sliding mode controller has been found to have the desired performance and become robust against hardware saturation, load disturbance, and lumped system uncertainties and nonlinearities.

Control Scheme

Aiming at a pneumatic artificial muscle (PAM) lower extremity exoskeleton, a control mechanism based on hybrid phase sliding mode control (SMC) is proposed. First of all, the human gait cycle is mainly divided into the swing phase and stance phase, and the lower extremity exoskeleton phase models are established by the Euler–Lagrange method, respectively. Secondly, the lower limb exoskeleton is inevitably affected in the diverse working environment, and the exoskeleton model has nonlinear and strong coupling characteristics, which both increase the control difficulty. In this situations, a robust sliding mode control method is designed based on an Extended State Observer (ESO). Thirdly, the pneumatic muscle takes time to contract and relax, and then the joint input torque cannot jump when the gait phase changes, hence, the smoothing switching of the assistive control scheme is introduced to solve it. The smoothing switching time is detected by a phase detector, and the phase detector is designed by the plantar pressure information. Finally the comparative simulation shows that this control strategy has the advantages of fast time, high control precision and no jump during control torque switching. Pneumatic artificial muscle contraction rate curve shows that the pneumatic muscles’ motion range meets the control requirement of the exoskeleton.

Care Systems

Recently, power assisted nursing care systems have received much attention and those researches have been done actively. In such a control system, an actuator and a control valve are mounted on the human body. Designing the system, the size and weight of the valve become serious concerns. The purpose of our study is to develop a small-sized, lightweight and low-cost servo valve for precise control using wearable pneumatic actuators. In this study, a low-cost wearable servo valve that can control the output flow rate by changing the twisted angle of the buckled tube in the servo valve is proposed and tested. The position control system of McKibben rubber artificial muscle using tested valve and embedded controller is also proposed and tested. As a result, we confirmed that the tested servo valve can control the flow rate in both supply and exhaust in an analog way. In addition, the estimated cost of the proposed valve can be reduced about 100 times cheaper (10 US Dollar) compared with the typical servo valve.

Three-stage servo-valves are popularly used in hydraulic systems that require large flow rate and high pressure. For a proper control of flow direction and flow rate fed into a hydraulic actuator, securing a proper position control bandwidth is a critical task for the servo-valve. In this paper, a set of popular control methods are systematically studied and a control method is selected. It is proven that the feedforward model-inverse control is the most effective method in terms of the control bandwidth. In the present work, the feedforward closed-loop architecture is adopted and the closed-loop system is estimated in a linear discrete-time transfer function by recursive least squares method. On recognizing a nonminimum phase zero problem, this work implements the zero magnitude error tracking control, an approximate model-inverse technique, in order to overcome the problem. As a result, the effectiveness of the proposed feedforward model-inverse position control strategy is verified.

A design scheme that integrates fault reconfiguration and fault-tolerant position control is proposed for a nonlinear servo system with friction. Analysis of the non-linear friction torque and fault in the system is used to guide design of a sliding mode position controller. A sliding mode observer is designed to achieve fault reconfiguration based on the equivalence principle. Thus, active fault-tolerant position control of the system can be realized. A real-time simulation experiment is performed on a hardware-in-loop simulation platform. The results show that the system reconfigures well for both incipient and abrupt faults. Under the fault-tolerant control mechanism, the output signal for the system position can rapidly track given values without being influenced by faults.
