A flexible-joint robot manipulator is a complex system because it is nonlinear, multivariable, highly coupled along with joint flexibility and uncertainty. To overcome flexibility, several methods have been proposed based on flexible model. This paper presents a novel method for controlling flexible-joint robot manipulators. A novel control law is presented by compensating flexibility to form a...

joint flexibility is a very important factor to consider in the controller design for robot manipulators if high performance is expected. most of the research works on control of flexible-joint robots in literature have ignored the actuator dynamics to avoid complexity in controller design. the problem of designing nonlinear controller for a class of single-link flexible-joint robot manipulator...

this paper presents a robust fractional order controller for flexible-joint electrically driven robots under imperfect transformation of control space. the proposed approach is free from manipulator dynamics, thus free from problems associated with torque control strategy in the design and implementation. as a result, the proposed controller is simple, fast response and superior to the torque c...

conclusions use of flexible joint in the exhaust system leads to conversion of linear vibration to non-linear one, resulting in significant reduction of noise levels. results by using this new exhaust at speed levels of 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, and 5000 rpm, we had respectively 3.9, 6.8, 7.4, 5.6, and 5 dba decreases in total sound level pressure. objectives this study aimed to reduce motorcycle...

we present a case report of acute spontaneous knee hemarthosis due to erosion of the nail through the knee joint capsule in a boy, seven months following retrograde flexible nailing for fractured femur. careful positioning of the location of the insertion site of flexible nails and proper nail tip management are important to avoid this rare late complication.

This paper is concerned with the problem of design and implementation a robust adaptive control strategy for flexible joint electrically driven robots (FJEDR), while considering to the constraints on the actuator voltage input. The control design procedure is based on function approximation technique, to avoid saturation besides being robust against both structured and unstructured uncertaintie...
