Introduction: Efficient gait control using Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) is an open research problem. In this research, a new intermittent controller has been designed to control the human shank movement dynamics during gait. Methods: In this approach, first, the three-dimensional phase space was constructed using the human shank movement data recorded from the healthy subjects. Then...

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...

In this paper, a design of modularized dual-joint servo controller on-chip for a space manipulator system is presented. All sensor information collection within the joints are obtained with FPGA hardware logic elements, and the joint space trajectory planning and position control are realized by Nios II soft-core processor, which is embedded in FPGA. Moreover, a dualredundant CAN bus Interface ...

Actuators of robot operate in the joint-space while the end-effect or of robot is controlled in the task-space. Therefore, designing a control system for a robotic system in the task-space requires the jacobian matrix information for transforming joint-space to task-space, which suffers from uncertainties. This paper deals with the robust task-space control of electrically driven robot manipula...

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...

In this paper, the dynamic controller design problem of a redundant planar 2-dof parallel manipulator is studied. Using the Euler-Lagrange equation, we formulate the dynamic model of the parallel manipulator in the joint space and propose an augmented PD controller with forward dynamic compensation for the parallel manipulator. By formulating the controller in the joint space, we eliminate the ...

This paper presents a comparative study of four control strategies for a flexible joint space manipulator. The considered control strategies consist in the classical Slotine and Li algorithm, a simple proportional derivative controller, a singular perturbation-based controller and a nonlinear backstepping controller. All control methodologies are assessed in numerical simulations for endpoint p...
