Such valves are less expensive than typical servo-valves but also tend to be limited in their dynamic performance. Based on a previously developed eight state nonlinear model, we develop a simplified linear model which is able to capture the essential dynamics of the valve. Using root locus analysis method, the limitation in dynamic performance is shown to be due to a “zero” introduced by the structure of the interconnection of the subsystems. Design parameters that move the “zero” further to the left half plane, and do not adversely affect other steady state criteria are identified. The effectiveness of these parameters to improve the dynamic performance is demonstrated.","PeriodicalId":90691,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ASME Dynamic Systems and Control Conference.

None of these results, however, produce the sort of computable bounds on the neglected dynamics that would be useful in the design of controllers with guaranteed robustness properties. This paper outlines an approach to model reduction based upon Lyapunov functions that represent a modified version of the system energy of Lagrangian subsystems. The Lyapunov functions are used to bound the states of subsystems to be removed, enabling these states to be treated as time-varying perturbations in a simplified set of dynamic equations. In contrast to other results in energy-based model reduction, this approach provides bounds on the disturbances caused by the unmodeled dynamics though at the cost of the implementation ease associated with other methods.","PeriodicalId":90691,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ASME Dynamic Systems and Control Conference.

The initial and final position of the end effector are specified. Two cases, one of a single manipulator, and the other of two cooperating manipulators carrying a common payload illustrate the approach proposed. The genetic algorithm identifies the optimal trajectory based on minimum joint torque requirements. The minimization of a suitably defined performance index involving joint torques implies that the trajectory thus obtained requires the least amount of torque.","PeriodicalId":90691,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ASME Dynamic Systems and Control Conference.

In order to handle tractable models, typically there have been two ways to tackle this problem: i) The first approach is to assume that the system is fast enough and thus the time delay can be neglected, in this way time-delay-free differential equations are obtained such that the controller is time-delay-free. This approach needs further formal study to validate this assumption, and so far there is neither strict nor rigorous result that support this claim, when considering the full nonlinear telerobotic dyanmics. ii) In the second approach, the time delay is considered explicitly, however typically nonlinear dynamics is neglected and then linear models are used to derive time-delay-based control systems. The second approach ignores that the robots are nonlinear systems with strong nonlinear inertial couplings, and therefore controllers based on linear time-delay models render low performance. In this paper, the teleoperation of robots is modeled, including nonlinear dynamics in the continuous domain, without any time delay, and model-based nonlinear continuous second order sliding mode controllers are proposed which guarantee finite-time convergence. Thus, this approach attempts to propose a scheme for the second approach outlined above. The teleoperation system provides force reflection to the human operator, and a kinematic-based predictive display yields visual stimuli while the master robot yields kinesthetic feedback to the operator to allow planning better desired trajectories, including contact forces, in contrast to other predictive displays that have been proposed in the literature. Therefore, the theoretical foundations of finite-time convergent telecontrol system and its advantages are discussed.","PeriodicalId":90691,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ASME Dynamic Systems and Control Conference.

The noted characteristic of injection molding is that performance feedback (i.e., part quality measure) becomes available only at the end of the cycle, therefore, the performance of the entire sequence of inputs that form the profile is evaluated by the same delayed measure at the end of the cycle. The proposed profiling method uses the concept of reinforcement learning, which is particularly suited to problems with delayed feedback. For an initial study, the method is tested in improving the profiles of the ram velocity and packing pressure. For this study, a simulation program is used to provide estimates of digital video disks (DVDs) quality attributes as feedback for evaluating the performance of the adapted profiles. The initial results indicate that the proposed method is effective in refining the profiles, which will lead to better quality parts with faster cycles.","PeriodicalId":90691,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ASME Dynamic Systems and Control Conference.
