Maglev (Magnetic Levitation) systems are an interesting class of systems since they work without any physical contact and are hence frictionless. Due to this attractive property, such systems have the potential for wide range of applications such as maglev trains. Maglev is non-linear due to magnetic field and unstable that suggest the need of stabilizing controller. An appropriate controller is required to levitate the object at desired position. FOPID (Fractional Order Proportional Integral Derivative) controller and ILC (Iterative learning Control) based FOPID controller are designed in this paper for the levitation of metallic ball with desired reference at minimum transient errors. Since maglev is unstable and ILC is used only for stable systems, FOPID controller is used to stabilize the plant. Non-linear interior point optimization method is used to obtain the parameters of FOPID controller. An ILC is used as a feedforward controller in order to improve the response iteratively. P, PD and PID-ILC control laws are used to update the new control input in ILC based FOPID controller. The overall control scheme is therefore a hybrid combination of ILC and FOPID. The effectiveness of proposed technique is analyzed based on performance indices via simulation. ISE (Integral Square Error) and IAE (Integral Absolute Error) is lesser in case of hybrid PID-ILC as compared to simple FOPID controller.

This paper develops a novel controller called adaptive iterative learning sliding mode (AILSM) to control linear and nonlinear fractional-order systems. This controller applies a hybrid structure of adaptive and iterative learning control in to sliding mode method. It can switch between both adaptive and iterative learning control in order to use the advantages of both controllers simultaneously and therefore achieve better control performance. This controller is designed in a way to be robust against the external disturbance. It also estimates unknown parameters of fractional-order system. The proposed controller, unlike the conventional iterative learning control, does not need to apply direct control input to output of the system. It is shown that the controller performs well in partial and complete observable conditions. Illustrative examples verify the performance of the proposed control in presence of unknown disturbances and model uncertainties.

Snake robotics is an important research topic with a wide range of applications, including inspection in confined spaces, search-and-rescue, and disaster response. Snake robots are well-suited to these applications because of their versatility and adaptability to unstructured and constrained environments. In this paper, we introduce a soft pneumatic robotic snake that can imitate the capabilities of biological snakes, its soft body can provide flexibility and adaptability to the environment. This paper combines soft mobile robot modeling, proprioceptive feedback control, and motion planning to pave the way for functional soft robotic snake autonomy. We propose a pressure-operated soft robotic snake with a high degree of modularity that makes use of customized embedded flexible curvature sensing. On this platform, we introduce the use of iterative learning control using feedback from the on-board curvature sensors to enable the snake to automatically correct its gait for superior locomotion. We also present a motion planning and trajectory tracking algorithm using an adaptive bounding box, which allows for efficient motion planning that still takes into account the kinematic state of the soft robotic snake. We test this algorithm experimentally, and demonstrate its performance in obstacle avoidance scenarios.
