Todays, use of combination of two or more methods was considered to control of systems. In this paper ispresented how to design of a nonlinear H∞ (NL-H∞) controller for flexible joint robot (FJR) based on boundedUKF state estimator. The UKF has more advantages to standard EKF such as low bios and no need toderivations. In this research, based on spong primary model for FJRs, same as rigid robot...

A redundant robot has more degrees of freedom than what is needed to uniquely position the robot end-effector. In practical applications the extra degrees of fieedom increase the orientation and reach of the robot. The load carrying capacity of a single robot can be increased by cooperative manipulation of the load by two or more robots. In this paper we develop an adaptive control scheme for k...

Modelling and identification of flexible-joint robots is required for dynamic simulation and model based control of industrial robots. A nonlinear finite element based method is used to derive the dynamic equations of motion in a form suitable for both simulation and identification. The latter requires that the equations of motion are linear in the dynamic parameters. For accurate simulations o...

Abstract Medical rehabilitation treatments are carried out to reinstate physical disorders caused from an injury or stroke. Robots can significantly assist the therapist to carry out an effortless and yet controlled rehabilitation program simultaneously on a number of patients to save on time and efforts of both the therapist and the patient. Ankle joint injuries, due to their complexities and ...

in this paper a novel direct adaptive fuzzy system is proposed to control flexible-joints robot including actuator dynamics. the design includes two interior loops: the inner loop controls the motor position using proposed approach while the outer loop controls the joint angle of the robot using a pid control law. one novelty of this paper is the use of a pso algorithm for optimizing the contro...

in this article a new and an accurate method for kinematic and dynamic analysis of a parallel robot 3prs and a hybrid robot (parallel and serial) 3prs-rrp are presented, which is based on the denavit-hartenberg transformation matrix algebra. first, basic properties of various kinds of robots are compared, and then the denavit-hartenberg parameters and their table are introduced. next, the metho...

This dissertation addresses the analysis and control of variable stiffness actuated robots aiming at precise, sensitive, robust, and dynamic interaction with their environment and especially humans. The focus is the adjustment of impedance properties, namely adjusting the robot equilibrium position, the stiffness, and damping. Highest demands are met by the development of new control concepts a...

Mechanical flexibility in robot manipulators is due to compliance at the joints and/or distributed deflection of the links. Dynamic models of the two classes of robots with flexible joints or flexible links are presented, together with control laws addressing the motion tasks of regulation to constant equilibrium states and of asymptotic tracking of output trajectories. Control design for robot...

this paper presents optimal control method to path planning of mobile robots with flexible joints. dynamic equations are derived and additional kinematic constraints are used to solve the extra dofs arose from base mobility. then with modeling the elasticity at each joint as a linear torsinal spring, the set of equations are formed. the hamiltonian function is formed and the necessary condition...

This paper addresses the issue of adaptive position/force control of uncertain constrained flexible joint robots (FJRs). The controller is developed without the assumptions of weak robot joint flexibility as adopted in popular singular perturbation (SP) approaches. It relies on the feedback of joint state variables and avoids noisy joint torque measurements found in most controllers developed s...
