Friction Models and Friction Compensation

Friction Models and Friction Compensation

Friction occurs in all mechanical systems,e.g. bearings, transmissions, hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders, valves, brakes and wheels. Friction appears at the physical interface between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants such as grease or oil are often used but the there may also be a dry contact between the surfaces. Friction is strongly influenced by contaminations. There is a wide range of p...

A study of friction models and friction compensation

On Friction Compensation without Friction Model

This paper presents a new methodology for friction compensation that is not based on any friction model. This is done by using finite-terms Fourier series to approximate the friction term. Updating laws for the coefficients of the series are easily derived from a Lyapunov approach to guarantee asymptotic convergence of the tracking error. Computer simulations are then proposed in which friction...

Friction Modeling, Identification and Compensation

HIGH-PRECISION tracking requires excellent control of slow motion and positioning. Recent advances have provided dynamic friction models that represent almost all experimentally observed properties of friction. The state space formulation of these new mathematical descriptions has the property that the state derivatives are continuous functions. This enables the application of established theor...

Friction Compensation for Dynamic and Static Models Using Nonlinear Adaptive Optimal Technique

Friction is a nonlinear phenomenon which has destructive effects on performance of control systems. To obviate these effects, friction compensation is an effectual solution. In this paper, an adaptive technique is proposed in order to eliminate limit cycles as one of the undesired behaviors due to presence of friction in control systems which happen frequently. The proposed approach works for n...
