In this paper, we develop a sliding mode controller based brake control strategy for a two-wheeler using its dynamic model which proportions the brake force to front and rear wheels through appropriate commands, so as to track the optimal wheel slip during braking. This is in response to the rider's brake force demand through the front and rear brake control levers, taken as inputs, which influence the braking torque in another wheel as well. Further, the optimal wheel slip is calculated during runtime to achieve the maximum coefficient of friction in the given road and vehicle. By implementing the control strategy in conjunction with a two-wheeler simulation model, the performance is analyzed in terms of stability, minimum stopping distance, optimal slip tracking and jerk.","PeriodicalId":258783,"journal":{"name":"2021 24th International Conference on Mechatronics Technology (ICMT)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127962732","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 paper addresses this issue by presenting a design methodology that has been used to model the human knee joint from Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans, and curve fitting method to approximate the condylar profiles. The study was to extract the knee profiles from MRI scans and create a 3D model of a condylar knee joint for robotic applications. A medical imaging software was used to assist the process of converting these scans into a 3D model. This model was then imported into a 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) software and various profiles from the model were extracted to derive the articular surfaces of the condylar knee. The condylar profiles that were extracted to create the bio-inspired knee model based on articular surfaces, were also analysed in MATLAB using polynomial equations. The results of the polynomial equation are a good fit of the condylar profile extracted from the 3D model, which can benefit the design of a prosthetic joint. The generated 3D model of the knee from the MRI scans can also be used to assist with the sizing and movement of a life-like knee implant.","PeriodicalId":258783,"journal":{"name":"2021 24th International Conference on Mechatronics Technology (ICMT)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129996943","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}

In this paper, we focus on a prototype of guinea fowl jumping robot to improve the stability during the rapid jumping motion, and we introduce a momentum wheel mechanism to reduce the occupied volume of the tail mechanism. In addition, we suggest a basic study to make continuous jumping motion by using the momentum wheel mechanism to change the jumping angle, jumping height, and jumping distance. A theoretical analysis, simulation, prototype fabrication, and experiment of a guinea fowl jumping robot with a 1-axis momentum wheel mechanism were carried out. Besides, we confirmed that the passive hallux structure contributed to the jumping stability, and we verified that the prototype model could properly land on the ground by controlling the posture after vertical jumping using the momentum wheel mechanism.","PeriodicalId":258783,"journal":{"name":"2021 24th International Conference on Mechatronics Technology (ICMT)","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126243449","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}

In the 2-DOF cable-driven manipulator, both the manipulator dynamics and cable transmission dynamics are described in the manuscript. As a result, the manipulator becomes a fourth-order system, and the problem of “explosion of complexity” will arise when conventional backstepping control is applied to manage the system. To overcome this issue, a command filter backstepping control is proposed. A Lyapunov approach is investigated to demonstrate the stability and robustness of the whole system with the backstepping technique. Finally, some simulations are conducted on a 2-DOF cable-driven manipulator to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control.","PeriodicalId":258783,"journal":{"name":"2021 24th International Conference on Mechatronics Technology (ICMT)","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128194097","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}

Therefore, in order to overcome this limitation, a soft sensor that has low manufacturing cost and can be applied to various grippers was manufactured using strain gauges and silicon. The performance of the proposed two types of soft sensors was confirmed through slip detection experiments. In addition, it was confirmed whether grasping could be performed after inserting a soft sensor into the distal phalanges by fabricating a four-finger anthropomorphic robot hand.

In order to overcome these shortcomings and improve the fuel economy, this paper presents an innovative energy management strategy (EMS) using a fuzzy logic control (FLC) and frequency decoupling (FD) for a hybrid power system (HPS) with PEMFC, battery (BAT), and supercapacitor (SC). Based on the power response of energy sources, the combination of FLC and FD is applied to determine the appropriate power distribution for load power demand. Besides, a DC bus control loop was designed by using the BAT to guarantee a stable DC output voltage. Comparisons between the proposed strategy with a conventional approach are conducted to verify the strategy's effectiveness through MATLAB/Simulink environment. Simulation results show that the proposed EMS can be guaranteed to not only sufficiently coordinate powers even when the abrupt changes of load or high peak power, but also enhance the efficiency of the PEMFC in comparison with the conventional EMS.","PeriodicalId":258783,"journal":{"name":"2021 24th International Conference on Mechatronics Technology (ICMT)","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114537704","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}
