This micro-manipulator consists of a parallel mechanism, which is fabricated from photo-sensitive micro-structured glass and two piezoelectric actuators (PEA), which actuate the \"x\" and \"y\" degrees of freedom on a working plane with dimensions of 50x50 micrometers. Because the control performance of a micro-manipulator severely deteriorates due to the hysteresis effect of PEAs, a neural network (NN) based position control is proposed in this study to improve control performance. A simulation model of the micro-manipulator and proposed neural network based control algorithm have been developed in Matlab/Simulink.","PeriodicalId":192217,"journal":{"name":"2008 10th IEEE International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116719859","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most of these reports have focused on the whole body motion generation and overall stability. While considering aforementioned issues, running motion appears to be a very important movement, as it is the combination of fast walking and jumping cycles. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed a control method based on the idea of manipulating Center of Gravity(COG) point in real time to be able to realize this purpose. Our proposed method is verified by 3-D dynamic simulations and experiments. Moreover, an additional method which is based on controlling the angular momentum around COG is proposed and verified in simulation and experiment.","PeriodicalId":192217,"journal":{"name":"2008 10th IEEE International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115258486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the analysis of the control structure, this paper clarifies the functions of the generalized force-sensor-less power assist control; particularly the functions of two force observers in FSPAC are made clear. Since the FSPAC consists of a positive feedback control, the robustness of the FSPAC is much weaker than the other power assist control with force sensors. This paper clarifies the trade-off between assistance performance and weak robustness in the FSPAC. Comparing power assist control derived from model following design and the disturbance observer based design, the limitation of assistance performance and methods to adjust the gain are revealed. Finally methodology of design the feedback gain in the FSPAC is discussed.","PeriodicalId":192217,"journal":{"name":"2008 10th IEEE International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control","volume":"484 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134372941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The controller parameters are chosen so as to minimize a certain cost function. The values of the parameters are updated iteratively based on tracking error in a gradient search. Iterative controller tuning is an advantageous method of controller tuning because no prior plant model is necessary. In this paper, we iteratively tune the feedforward controller of a wafer stage of a photolithography machine. A fixed-structure feedforward controller consisting of the inverted plant model was tuned. In addition, an additive feedforward term for compensation of nonlinear force ripple disturbance was tuned. The feedforward controller is tuned with the objective of minimizing a cost function that is a quadratic function of tracking error. Simulation and experimental results are presented which show that the iterative tuning method effectively reduced tracking error.","PeriodicalId":192217,"journal":{"name":"2008 10th IEEE International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control","volume":"36 12","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132434001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This estimation scheme is based only on the knowledge of the position information and it allows to compensate undesired effects acting on the rigid body, like friction or external unknown loads, without requiring any knowledge of these spurious effects. This goal is achieved by means of two interacting observers, one for the observation of the generalized momenta and another for velocity observation. This compensation scheme can be also used to give to the system the desired dynamics, therefore avoiding the problem of parameter uncertainties. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is proved both in simulation and experimentally, with a laboratory setup composed by a linear electric drive.","PeriodicalId":192217,"journal":{"name":"2008 10th IEEE International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116464751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Human action force and position response are sensed by using master-slave robot hand which is bilateral controlled. Skill motion is extracted as action modes and action energies calculated from human action force relationship and position response relationship. Action modes are modes which express action force and position response direction, and action energies are amplitude of each action mode. Motion guide system is composed of action force extraction and modal compliance controller which are designed based on action modes and action energies. The validity of the proposed methods is shown by the experimental results.","PeriodicalId":192217,"journal":{"name":"2008 10th IEEE International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control","volume":"154 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128230239","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
