This research focuses on proposing an optimal trajectory planning and control method of two link rigid-flexible manipulators (TLRFM) for Dynamic Object Manipulation (DOM) missions. For the first time, achievement of DOM task using a rotating one flexible link robot was taken into account in [20]. The authors do not aim to contribute on either trajectory tracking or vibration control of the End-...

This short memo aims at explaining our approach for the challenge IEEE-ISBI on Bone Texture Characterization. In this work, we focus on the use of covariance matrices and wavelet marginals in an SVM classifier.

In the present paper, a new 2-D Van der Polstructural oscillator model is introduced for the vortex induced vibrations of circular cylinders.The main purpose of this task is to control the recently introduced model by means of modern control definitions in state space. In order to control the system, the whole model is linearized about its equilibrium point by deriving state-space matrices. The...

Torque control strategy is a common strategy to control robotic manipulators. However, it becomes complex duo to manipulator dynamics. In addition, position control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSMs) is a complicated control. Therefore, tracking control of robots driven by PMSMs is a challenging problem. This article presents a novel tracking control of electrically driven robots wh...

Dynamic motions are a key feature of robotic arms, enabling them to perform tasks quickly and efficiently. Soft continuum manipulators do not currently consider dynamic parameters when operating in task space. This shortcoming makes existing soft robots slow limits their ability deal with external forces, especially during object manipulation. We address this issue by using operational space co...

End effector tracking control of robot manipulators subject to dynamical uncertainties is the main objective this article. Direct task space that aims minimizing end error directly preferred. In open loop system, vector depends on uncertain terms modeled via a fuzzy logic network and self-adjusting adaptive component designed as part nonlinear proportional derivative based input torque. The sta...
