This paper discusses a grasping, orientation, and position control of an object by two flexible arms modeled by the Timoshenko beam. By utilizing our previously proposed controller for the cooperative control, we realize to control the grasping force, orientation, and position of an object as well as to suppress the vibration of the flexible arms. In particular, the closed-loop system is formulated

Sliding Mode Predictive Active Fault-tolerant Control Method for Discrete Multi-faults System Int. J. Control Autom. Syst. (IF 2.733) Pub Date : 2020-12-06 Pu Yang, Zhangxi Liu, Dejie Li, Zhiqing Zhang, Zixin Wang
For discrete systems with sensor and actuator failures, this paper proposes an observer that can estimate both sensor failures and actuator failures and designs a sliding mode predictive fault-tolerant control method based on an improved whale optimization algorithm. First, a proportional-integral observer that can observe actuator fault and sensor fault is designed to estimate the value of faults

Application of Adaptive Control on Carbon Fiber Diagonal Loom Int. J. Control Autom. Syst. (IF 2.733) Pub Date : 2020-12-06 Wei Liu, Shuo Wang, Fengdong Shi, Guowei Xu, Yi Cheng
In order to improve the control effect of the tension fluctuation, a single neuron adaptive control strategy based on quadratic performance index is proposed in this paper. The structure and the working principle of carbon fiber diagonal loom are studied which can be used for dynamic analysis and controller design. With the idea of optimal control, the parameters of the controller are adjusted by minimizing

Development and Preclinical Trials of a Surgical Robot System for Endoscopic Endonasal Transsphenoidal Surgery Int. J. Control Autom. Syst. (IF 2.733) Pub Date : 2020-12-06 Dongeun Choi, Sun Ho Kim, Woosub Lee, Sungchul Kang, Keri Kim
In endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery, for the treatment of deep brain tumors, such as craniopharyngiomas, an endoscope and surgical instruments are inserted through a nasal cavity into the lesion to remove the tumor. This has recently become the preferred technique because there is less likelihood of neural damage and a low complication rate. Manually controlled rigid surgical instruments
