Therefore research in robot motion planning remains as one of the important fields of study in the task of building industrial robot systems. A new method for the motion planning is presented in this paper. The basic idea is to find a smooth path consisting of points close enough to each other. Then the computation of the inverse kinematics for these points is accomplished with the help of a new proposed geometrical method to solve the problem of multi-solution caused by redundancy. The advantage of this method is that the angles between the adjacent links are the same, it makes controlling these links easier and the movement of the manipulator itself more stable. This method can be used for the equal length links planar manipulators. To demonstrate the effectiveness of this proposed method, experiments were conducted on a 10-links hyper redundant manipulator in this paper.","PeriodicalId":405687,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology","volume":"1986 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130386536","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 advantages of the power supply design using soft-switched inverter rather than conventional hard switched PWM inverter in terms of adequate current regulator bandwidth and reduced switching losses are brought out.

At each sampling time a constrained finite-time optimal control problem based on a discrete-time nonlinear prediction model is solved yielding a receding horizon control strategy. The control objective is torque regulation while winding currents and converter switching frequency are minimized. Simulations demonstrate that a good closed-loop performance is achieved already for short prediction horizons indicating the high potential of MPC in the control of SRMs.","PeriodicalId":405687,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123552842","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 study explores important issues in the transition from mp-MPC theory to the implementation of an industrial controller, with emphasis on offset-free output feedback tracking and Kalman filter tuning.

By integrating the saddle node bifurcation limit with smoothing static security constraints, a smoothing ATC model is constructed, which considers security and stability simultaneously. The Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm is applied to solve the smoothing ATC model.

Very different ageing mechanisms were detected depending on the nature of the exposure medium.

However, since each field bus technology had an original device description, it was not able to describe the device capability profile of the device in a unified way. In this paper, the device capability profiling method corresponding to multi-technology is proposed for GDI which is one of generic application service interfaces. The device capability profile of each device is previously described in the XML schema definition language (XSD) according to the template. It is shown that the parameter instance which describes the values of devices can be described by an XML document, using the device capability profile as a schema. And it is shown that the manufacturing application service interface which accesses manufacturing equipment can be realized on GDI by using OASIS Production Planning and Scheduling (PPS) protocol. For standardization of a manufacturing application service interface, we proposed adding this method to ISO 20242 standard to ISO.","PeriodicalId":405687,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125733726","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}

Using load emulation, the feasibility of connecting a particular machine to a grid under various load conditions can be examined without the need for any electromechanical machinery. The paper considers the case of a power electronic Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) emulating a three phase induction motor connected to a three phase ac grid. The VSI is operated in a mode where the current drawn from the ac grid is controlled by closed loop control.
