This paper proposes a new 4-Degree-of-Freedom (DOF) master-slave system for 3 dimensional needle steering. Both master and slave devices are commonly composed of a 3 DOF spherical type parallel mechanism and a 1 DOF needle insertion mechanism. This system provides users with 3 dimensional needle steering and force reflection capabilities. The real time forward solution of the master device is addressed. The design of the master-slave system is described in detail. Finally, the effectiveness of this system for 3 dimensional needle steering task is verified through experimental work.

Paper deals with existing situation in industrial communication. Apart from proprietary serial communication systems exist many standardized fieldbuses. Due to increasing requirements on rapid data transfer and in hope of better transparency of communication in the overall plant control architecture, Ethernet has established as a well known and broadly used industrial communication technology. The paper shows one of possible methods for at least partial overcoming of the existing heterogeneity and incompatibility in large highly distributed control applications. The way is virtual automation networks and paper specify requirements and key features of the solution. The most important part of the paper deals with questions of the real - time features of virtual automation networks and the data security in heterogeneous communication environment.

Paper deals with application of online rotor broken bar fault detection via artificial neural networks. Fault can be detected by monitoring abnormalities of the spectrum amplitudes at certain frequencies in the motor current spectrum. These discriminative features are used for training of feed-forward backpropagation artificial neural network. Trained network is capable to successfully classify induction motor rotor condition. Results are presented in tables and figures.

Paper deals with two significant trends in the automation and control theory of the last decade. The problems are evoked by a lack between control theory and the automation praxis in the case of Networked controlsystems (NCS) and by penetration of wireless communication used in case of Sensor Networks. Authors define serious theoretical problems in Networked controlsystems analyses in the design of digital control such as non-periodical sampling period, variable delays in control feedback, lower dependability of feedback information and some other issues. Network Calculus is proposed as a possible mathematical and description tool. The paper also mentions an ambitious research program of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft to develop new theory of the NCS synthesis. In the second part of the paper the Sensor Networks as the new phenomenon in process values measurement and data acquisition systems are described. It is the opinion of the authors, that sensor networks represent totally other look on the utilization of sensors, than represents classical measurement engineering used in data acquisition systems.

A robust control solution is proposed to solve the air supply control problem in autonomous polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) based systems. Different second order sliding mode (SOSM) controllers are designed using a model of a laboratory test fuel cell generation system. Very good simulation results are obtained using such algorithms, showing the suitability of the SOSM approach to PEMFC stack breathing control. Subsequently, for experimental validation, a controller based on one of the previously assessed SOSM algorithms, namely a Super Twisting, is successfully implemented in the laboratory test bench. Highly satisfactory results are obtained, regarding dynamic behaviour, regulation error and robustness to uncertainties and external disturbances.

The magnetic torque coupled form the Earth's magnetic field is the most fundamental technique to generate torque for attitude control of low Earth orbit small satellites. The Earth's magnetic field is time varying as well as nonuniform distribution around the globe. Hence, normally there is large variation of the magnetic field from the nominal one using in controller design. In this work, we apply the robust control for the low Earth orbit small satellite actuated only by magnetic torque. The proposed controller, based on integral quadratic constraint, is of linear and robust respect to the input torque uncertainty. The complexity of computing the controller gain is the same as linear quadratic controller that can be computed off-line and stored in memory. The simulation results show that the performance of the proposed method is better than the optimal controller in the present of input magnetic torque uncertainty.

This article presents the design of an electronic system that is used to control a thermally actuated alignment device. This device is ideal for aligning critical parts in complex, high-precision systems, like, for example, optical elements or the electrodes of capacitive sensors. Accurate temperature control of the thermal elements improves the performance of the alignment in terms of positioning accuracy and operating speed. Furthermore, the article presents the realized test setup and the initial measurement results. The measurement results show the benefits of the new controller.
