To overcome the disadvantages of conventional computed‐torque control and fuzzy control, and to exploit their attractive features, this paper proposes two types of adaptive control scheme combining conventional computed‐torque control and different fuzzy compensators for the robust tracking control of robotic manipulators with structured and unstructured unce...

Relevance. The research relevance is predefined by the fact that presented object of analysis, namely interferometer, plays an important role in modern science obtaining accurate measurements and their results, which sets requirements for improving interferometers eliminating external influences. Purpose. aims to analyze progress development process two interferometers, are used many scientific...

A synthesis procedure for linear time-varying sampled-data feedback systems is described. Just as in the continuous system case, one of the advantages of feedback in a sampled-data system is that it can potentially reduce the effect of plant variations on the system performance. To a certain extent, load disturbance and instrument noise may be simultaneously reduced also. A timedomain sensitivi...

This paper concentrates on comparing the advantages and disadvantages, including costs, of using Secondary Voltage Regulation (SVR) versus using shunt-connected controllers, in particular Mechanical Switched Capacitors (MSC), Static var Compensators (SVC) and Static Synchronous Compensators (STATCOM), to improve voltage stability (VS) and the external transfer capability (TC) of the Italian pow...

~ This paper addresses the problem of controlling a manipulator in compliant motion while in contact with an environment having an unknown stiffness. Compliance control is used as an implicit force control scheme and establishes a user-specified target interaction ciyna]nics between the reference position and the contact force. ‘J’wo adaptive lag-plusfccdfor ward compliance compensators are dev...

In Isolated power systems the power quality problem is compounded as the drive converter loads are likely to fluctuate in conjunction with mining or exploration areas. The use of compensators in improving power quality of isolated power systems is considered. The roles of the compensators are to mitigate the effects of momentary voltage sags/swells, and to control the level of harmonic distorti...
