This stroke is controlled by position when the foot end of the robot descends from the suspension to the ground. To avoid excessive contact force when the robot touches the ground, force control is carried out when the foot touches the ground. Due to the force and position control methods and control parameters of the hydraulic quadruped robots are different, the precise mathematical model for the joint position control and joint force control of the leg joints of the hydraulic quadruped robot is established using the system identification method. A fuzzy multi-model switching algorithm is proposed to solve the problem of jumping and jitter of system parameters in the process of force/position switching. Through simulation and prototype experiments, fuzzy multi-model switching is compared with direct switching and multi-model switching, and the switching effect of the algorithm is verified.","PeriodicalId":507087,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the Institute of Measurement and Control","volume":"20 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139783402","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}

First, a prescribed-time stability theorem using Lyapunov analysis and a uniformly bounded scaling function is proposed. Then, based on this theorem and the backstepping technique, a finite-time control procedure is provided for the uncertain nonlinear systems with unmatched nonlinear terms. Based on the design procedure, a state-feedback controller is obtained, which can render the system states exactly convergent to zero in a prescribed time and maintain at zero thereafter. Finally, simulation examples are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.","PeriodicalId":507087,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the Institute of Measurement and Control","volume":"33 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139784838","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 handle the precise heading-following problem of AUV, this paper proposes an iterative learning-based redefine model-free adaptive heading control (IL-RMFAC) method for the underactuated AUV with unknown disturbances based on data driven. The control scheme consists of a learning control algorithm, a parameter iterative update algorithm, and a parameter reset algorithm. It is designed using only the input and output (I/O) data of the controlled system and is a data-driven control method. The pseudo partial derivative (PPD) can be iteratively calculated through the parameter iterative update algorithm and reset algorithm to adjust the learning gain, solving the problem of strictly limited initial position of the traditional fixed learning gain iterative learning control (ILC). A linear combination of angle and angular velocity is introduced in the kinematic layer to avoid overshooting of the expected following target, and an iterative learning method is introduced in the dynamics to improve the accuracy. As the number of iterations increases, the steady-state error is gradually decreased. Finally, by comparing traditional proportional–integral–derivative (PID) simulations, the proposed algorithm’s effectiveness and outstanding performance for the AUV heading tracking are confirmed.","PeriodicalId":507087,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the Institute of Measurement and Control","volume":"179 39","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139843177","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}

A MPPT controller can guarantee good performance criteria even in the presence of climatic changes. To achieve this goal, several techniques have been proposed in the literature to improve robustness of the PV system control, such as artificial intelligence and multiswarm particle swarm optimization (MSPSO) algorithm. Previous research on classical MSPSO has shown that the algorithm search behavior cannot find the optimal solution for certain problems. In this context, we investigate the design of a new MPPT controller based on a modified version of heterogeneous multiswarm particle swarm optimization algorithm using an adaptive factor selection strategy (FMSPSO) for PV systems. The proposed FMSPSO can improve the tracking capability with high accuracy, less oscillations, and high robustness. To validate the proposed solution, a simulation and experimental benchmarking of a PV system are presented and analyzed. The obtained results show the effectiveness of the proposed solution compared with the classical MSPSO, fuzzy logic, and perturb and observe (P&O) control presented in other recent works.","PeriodicalId":507087,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the Institute of Measurement and Control","volume":"150 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139858686","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}
