The atomic force microscope (AFM) system has evolved into a useful tool for direct measurements of intermolecular forces with atomic-resolution characterization that can be employed in a broad spectrum of applications such as electronics, semi-conductors, materials, manufacturing, polymers, biological analysis, and biomaterials. The non-contact AFM offers unique advantages over other contemporary scanning probe techniques such as contact AFM and scanning tunneling microscopy. Current AFM imaging techniques are often based on a lumped-parameters model and ordinary differential equation (ODE) representation of the micro-cantilevers coupled with an ad-hoc method for atomic interaction force estimation (especially in non-contact mode). Since the magnitude of the interaction force lies within the range of nano-Newtons to pica-Newtons, precise estimation of the atomic force is crucial for accurate topographical imaging. In contrast to the previously utilized lumped modeling methods, this paper aims at improving current AFM measurement technique through developing a general distributed-parameters base modeling approach that reveals greater insight into the fundamental characteristics of the microcantilever-sample interaction. For this, the governing equations of motion are derived in the global coordinates via the Hamilton's Extended Principle. By properly selecting a set of general coordinates, the resulting non-homogenous boundary value problem is then converted to a homogenous one, and hence, analytically solvable. The AFM controller can then be designed based on the original infinite dimensional distributed-parameters system which, in turn, removes some of the disadvantages associated with the truncated-model base controllers such as control spillovers, residual oscillations and increased order of the control. Numerical simulations are provided to support these claims.

A translational cantilevered Euler-Bernoulli beam with tip mass dynamics at its free end is used to study the effect of several damping mechanisms on the stabilization of the beam displacement. Specifically, a Lyapunov-based controller utilizing a partial differential equation model of the translational beam is developed to exponentially stabilize the beam displacement while the beam support is regulated to a desired set-point position. Depending on the composition of the tip mass dynamics assumption (i.e. body-mass, point-mass, or massless), it is shown that proper combination of different damping mechanisms (i.e., strain-rate, structural, or viscous damping) guarantees exponential stability of the beam displacement. This novel Lyapunov-based approach, which is based on the energy dissipation mechanism in the beam, brings new dimensions to the stabilization problem of translational beams with tip mass dynamics. The stability analysis utilizes relatively simple mathematical tools to illustrate the exponential and asymptotic stability results. The numerical results are presented to show the effectiveness of the controller.

This paper presents a new methodology for the deformation of soft objects by drawing an analogy between Poisson equation and elastic deformation. The potential energy stored in a soft body as a result of a deformation caused by an external force is propagated among mass points by Pwoisson equation. The novelty of the methodology is that Poisson-based techniques are established to propagate the energy generated by the external force and to extrapolate the internal forces of a deformed object. A cellular neural network model is established to solve the Poisson model for the real-time requirement of soft object deformation. This proposed methodology not only deals with large-range deformations, but also accommodates isotropic, anisotropic and inhomogeneous materials by simply modifying constitutive coefficients.
