In contrast to conventional model-based impedance control strategies, which may compromise controller stability and robustness due to model uncertainties, unmodeled dynamics, and external disturbances, our proposed model-free impedance control (MFIC) strategy eliminates the requirement for prior knowledge about the controlled system dynamics. MFIC is achieved by incorporating model-free control into conventional impedance control, employing time delay estimation (TDE) to estimate unknown dynamics. Numerical simulations confirm that MFIC outperforms traditional impedance control in terms of tracking performance and robustness. Furthermore, model-free variable impedance control (MFVIC) is introduced by enhancing MFIC with online impedance parameters adaptation using fuzzy logic control. The desired impedance model adapts according to motion and contact torque measurements. MFVIC employs two fuzzy systems to adjust the desired impedance model for two stages of rehabilitation: passive and active-assistive rehabilitation training.

The feedforward control signal helps reduce the workload on the Lyapunov feedback controller. This control system ensures global exponential stability of the closed-loop system, enabling a swift transient response even under line and load disturbances.

The single element antenna consists of a defected ground structure (DGS) to obtain the first resonance at 2.4 GHz (Wi-Fi) and inset fed patch is responsible for second resonance at 3.6 GHz (Wi-MAX). As the single antenna is extended for 8-elements MIMO arrangement in a compact layout, the |S11| deteriorates which improved by engraving additional I-shaped DGS slots that enhances the impedance matching at the antenna ports. Due to closely placed antenna elements the mutual coupling at the resonant bands is poor. Hence, T- shaped stubs are introduced to achieve reduced mutual coupling between the antennas which effectively improves isolation characteristics of individual antenna elements beyond − 20 dB. A dual band Artificial Magnetic Conductor (AMC) is designed and placed below the MIMO antenna at a certain distance to enhance the gain at both the bands without perturbing the scattering parameters. The gain is improved from − 2.7 to 3.5 dB at the first resonance and from 1.7 to 3.85 dB at the second resonance. The diversity performances of MIMO are calculated in terms of Envelop Correlation Coefficient, Diversity Gain, Mean Effective Gain, Channel Capacity Loss, Total Active Reflection Coefficient, and Multiplexing Efficiency which confirm that the proposed MIMO antenna is a very potential candidate for multifunctional high speed wireless communication systems.

For this test, analytical expressions for the transport are developed for two different electro-osmotic drag models, Springer’s linear description and a piecewise-linear proposal. Those expressions are implemented on a PEMFC model along with the non-simplified description, which is solved numerically. Both submodels have good accuracies on the polarization curve while the water concentration does not reach the region of the peak in diffusivity (<span>(lambda cong 4)</span>), indicating that the underestimation of the back-diffusion caused by the mean can hinder the accuracy. As for computational time, improvements of 49.85 and 23.69% are, respectively, obtained for Springer’s and the piecewise-linear electro-osmotic drag models for a larger interval between the solved current densities. However, the analytical expressions cause a performance loss of 6.80% when a smaller interval is used for the piecewise description.
