this paper presents a delay compensator fuzzy control for trajectory tracking of omni-directional mobile robots. fuzzy logic control (flc) of the robots is a suitable strategy for dealing with model uncertainties, nonlinearities and disturbances.  on the other hand, in many robotic applications such as mobile robots, delay phenomenon is able to substantially deteriorate the behavior of system's...

in this paper, a new method was proposed for the navigation of a mobile robot in an unknown dynamic environment. the robot could detect only a limited radius of its surrounding with its sensors and it went on the shortest null space (sns) toward the goal. in the case of no obstacle, sns was a direct path from the robot to goal; however, in the presence of obstacles, sns was a space around the r...

The present study deals with a robot safety system composed of standby robot units and inbuilt safety unit. When the main operative unit fails, it is replaced by the standby robot unit available in the system. The concept of reboot delay is also incorporated in this study according to which the robot unit is rebooted if it is not successfully recovered. The recovery and reboot times of failed u...

in this paper, a robust integral of the sign error (rise) feedback controller is designed for a rigid-link electrically driven (rled) robot manipulator actuated by direct current dc motor in presence of parametric uncertainties and additive disturbances. rise feedback with implicitly learning capability is a continuous control method based on the lyapunov stability analysis to compensate an add...

in this paper an automatic examination robot was developed to improve the process of cancer detection, tumor localization and geometrical shape diagnosis. a uniformly distributed compressive load was applied to the top tissue surface and the resultant mechanical stress was measured that was employed for the tumor diagnosis task. the experimental examinations were performed on the soft tissue of...
