The finger is provided with the tactile sense by two types of sensors to detect when the finger tip touches an object and to estimate both the finger force and object size. The rigidity is enhanced by equipping the finger with a reinforcing material similar to that of human bone. A prototype robot hand with four fingers has been manufactured for experiments and mounted on an industrial articulated robot. The effectiveness of the improved robot hand finger was confirmed throughout experimental tests of grasping action.","PeriodicalId":360541,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 4th IEEE International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control - AMC '96 - MIE","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115190943","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}

To reduce the order of the compensator the rigid-body mode and the first flexible mode are considered as a nominal model. The other flexible modes are considered as unmodeled dynamics. The method is suitable to robustly control the nominal model in the presence of unmodeled flexible dynamics and achieve the desired model matching simultaneously. Moreover, the sufficient condition for stabilizing the nominal model in the presence the unmodeled flexible dynamics is derived. Finally, computer simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":360541,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 4th IEEE International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control - AMC '96 - MIE","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128327077","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 developed wave maker is a flap type wave maker which consists of multi-segmented flaps, actuators (AC servo motors) which drive segmented flaps, and the computer system which manages the motion control of actuators. Waves can be generated by the forward and/or backward movement of flaps which are connected mechanically by ball screws rotated by AC servo motors. How the flaps are moved decides the type of waves such as the wave height, the wave period, and the wave spectrum, etc. The width of the test basin and a flap size are 30m and 0.4m, respectively. Therefore, the number of segmentation of flaps becomes 75. The computer system drives simultaneously these 75-axes AC servo motors. The organized motion control of 75-axes-servo-system for the multi-directional wave maker is completed and the high performance of the wave generation, especially the real time calculation of setpoints, is achieved by the organized motion control hierarchy design.","PeriodicalId":360541,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 4th IEEE International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control - AMC '96 - MIE","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122613763","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}

We employ the PID-controller and attach dampers to simple-rods that is a kind of flexible shafts. We can raise response frequency to anti-resonant frequency and determine arbitrary damping characteristics of the system by the PID-controller.
