−In the paper you will implement a set point control system for the single-link manipulator with flexible joint using a multiloop controller based on feedback linearization (inner loop) and linear statefeedback control (outer loop). Then, you will modify the multiloop controller to solve a trajectory tracking problem. The simulations demonstrate that the multi-loop control law it is a viable me...

The article presented two proposals for construction of a flexible element with variable stiffness, in which construction is limited, or is it completely eliminated the mechanical elastic member such as spring. Their properties vary in the extent applicable member stiffness and speed of reaction to contact with an obstacle. By limiting, or eliminating the mechanical elastic member can be achiev...

A technique using augmented sliding mode control for robust, real-time control of flexible multiple link robots is presented. For the purpose of controller design, the n-link, n-joint robot is subdivided into n single joint, single link subsystems. A sliding surface for each subsystem is specified so as to be globally, asymptotically stable. Each sliding surface contains rigid-body angular velo...

Abstract -This paper proposes a new approach to feedback linearization of flexible link robots which have uncertain modeling. The flexibility of joints is performed by use of the solenoid nonlinear springs, which have damper property. The simplified nonlinear H∞ controller is used to control linearized flexible link robots. The new continues and smooth model of frictions is used for modeling th...

In this study, we consider a point-to-point motion of a flexible arm mounted on a flexible base, composed of a slide rail and helical extension springs, and then propose a trajectory planning method for reducing residual vibrations. The Lagrangian approach, in conjunction with the assumed mode method, is applied to derive the equations of motion of the system. In order to accurately construct t...
