Each joint of the system is a free ball joint capable of rotating with three degrees of freedom （DOF）. A cluster of control moment gyroscopes （CMGs） is mounted on each link and the base to actuate the system. The modified Rodrigues parameters （MRPs） are employed to describe the angular displacements, and the equations of motion are derived using Kane＇s equations. The controller for each link or the base is designed sep- arately in decentralized scheme. The unknown disturbances, inertia parameter uncertainties and nonlinear uncertainties are classified as a ＂lumped＂ matched uncertainty with unknown upper bound, and a continuous sliding mode control （SMC） law is proposed, in which the control gain is tuned by the improved adaptation laws for the upper bound on norm of the uncertainty. A gen- eral amplification function is designed and incorporated in the adaptation laws to reduce the control error without conspicuously increasing the magnitude of the control input. Uniformly ultimate boundedness of the closed loop system is proved by Lyapunov＇s method. Simulation results based on a three-link system verify the effectiveness of the proposed controller.展开更多

At present, most of the solutions of the problem do not take the robot dynamics into account in the controller design, so that these controllers are difficult to realize satisfactory control in practical application. Besides, many of the approaches suffer from the initial speed and torque jump which are not practical in the real world. Considering the kinematics and dynamics, a two-stage visual controller for solving the stabilization problem of a mobile robot is presented, applying the integration of adaptive control, sliding-mode control, and neural dynamics. In the first stage, an adaptive kinematic stabilization controller utilized to generate the command of velocity is developed based on Lyapunov theory. In the second stage, adopting the sliding-mode control approach, a dynamic controller with a variable speed function used to reduce the chattering is designed, which is utilized to generate the command of torque to make the actual velocity of the mobile robot asymptotically reach the desired velocity. Furthermore, to handle the speed and torque jump problems, the neural dynamics model is integrated into the above mentioned controllers. The stability of the proposed control system is analyzed by using Lyapunov theory. Finally, the simulation of the control law is implemented in perturbed case, and the results show that the control scheme can solve the stabilization problem effectively. The proposed control law can solve the speed and torque jump problems, overcome external disturbances, and provide a new solution for the vision-based stabilization of the mobile robot.展开更多

Considering the model uncertainties and external disturbance, a robust sliding mode controller is proposed using the Lyapunov direct method and dissipative theory. To eliminate the chattering phenomenon, an radial basis function （RBF） neural network is applied to replace the discontinuous part of the control signal. A novel on-line learning method of the weights and parameters of the RBF neural network established using Lyapunov function assures the stability of the system. It is proved that the proposed controller can guarantee that the L2 gain from disturbance to tracking error is lower than the given index y. Simulation results show that the control method is valid.展开更多

The governing equation of the umbilical cable is based on a finite difference method, the hydrodynamic behaviors of the underwater robot are described by the six-degrees-of-freedom equations of motion for submarine simulations, and a controller based on the fuzzy sliding mode control(FSMC) algorithm is also incorporated. Fluid motion around the main body of moving robot with running control ducted propellers is governed by the Navier–Stokes equations and these nonlinear differential equations are solved numerically via computational fluid dynamics(CFD) technique. The hydrodynamics and control behaviors of the tethered underwater robot under certain designated trajectory and attitude control manipulation are then investigated based on the established hydrodynamics and control model. The results indicate that satisfactory control effect can be achieved and hydrodynamic behavior under the control operation can be observed with the model; much kinematic and dynamic information about tethered underwater robot system can be forecasted, including translational and angular motions of the robot, hydrodynamic loading on the robot, manipulation actions produced by the control propellers, the kinematic and dynamic behaviors of the umbilical cable. Since these hydrodynamic effects are fed into the proposed coupled model, the mutual hydrodynamic influences of different portions of the robot system as well as the hydrological factors of the undersea environment for the robot operation are incorporated in the model.展开更多

A kinematic controller whose output is the input of the relevant dynamic controller is provided by using the concept of backstepping. An adaptive algorithm is developed in the kinematic controller to approximate the unknown kinematic parameters, and a simple single-layer neural network is used to express the highly nonlinear robot dynamics in terms of the known and unknown parameters. In order to attenuate the effects of the uncertainties and disturbances on tracking performance, a sliding mode control term is added to the dynamic controller. In the deterministic design of feedback controllers for the uncertain dynamic systems, upper bounds on the norm of the uncertainties are an important clue to guarantee the stability of the closed-loop system. However, sometimes these upper bounds may not be easily obtained because of the complexity of the structure of the uncertainties. Thereby, simple adaptation laws are proposed to approximate upper bounds on the norm of the uncertainties to address this problem. The stability of the proposed control system is shown through the Lyapunov method. Lastly, a design example for a mobile robot with two actuated wheels is provided and the feasibility of the controller is demonstrated by numerical simulations.展开更多

The nonholonomic dynamic model of the Wheeled Mobile Robot (WMR) is developed in global Cartesian coordinates where the WMR’s forward and angular velocities are used as internal state variables. In order to include the effects of parameter uncertainties, measurement noises and other anomalies in the WMR system, a bounded perturbation vector is embedded to the developed dynamical model. Through defining the control inputs by computed torque method, a Dynamic Sliding Mode Controller (DSMC) is proposed to stabilize the sliding surfaces. Based on the proposed robust control system, the effect of uncertainties and noises in the robot performance is attenuated. By use of the WMR forward and angular velocities as internal state variables in the dynamic modeling, the developed model is relatively simple and mainly independent of the robot states. This makes the dynamical model more robust against measurement errors. Design of the DSMC based on such a model leads to perfect trajectory tracking and compensation for initial off-tracks even in the presence of disturbances and modeling uncertainties.展开更多
