The paper experimentally compares six visual oscillation sensing approaches for a three degrees of freedom flexible link robot arm with an eye-in-hand RGB-D camera. The comparison includes five representative scenarios. Based upon the results the authors propose a novel scene adaptive camera motion reconstruction scheme. The scheme adaptively selects the best approach according to the actual scene texture and depth profile. Experiments in indoor scenarios with sparse texture, poor depth profiles as well as dynamic scene contents approve the obtained signal quality to be well suited for visual vibration damping of flexible link robot arms in a great variety of frequently observed scenarios.

Abstract The purpose of this contribution is to introduce a new approach for simulating mechanical systems with nonholonomic constraints. The technique of algorithmic differentiation is employed together with Hamel’ s equations of motion permitting to incorporate the nonholonomic constraints directly instead of generating a system of differential-algebraic equations. To apply the proposed simulation approach, the user only needs to state the kinetic and potential energies, the nonconservative forces, and the nonholonomic constraints of the system to be simulated. The procedure is demonstrated by an illustrating example of a nonholonomic moving robot.

A fermentation process is generally defined as a biological process containing the growth of the biomass (bacteria, yeasts) resulting from the consumption of essential substrate supplies (source of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, etc.). The biomass growth is usually followed by the production of various products from which especially the variety of antibiotics makes the fermentation processes attractive for the industrial utilization. However, the complicated dynamics, high level of uncertainty and nonlinearity and difficult online measurement of the process variables come hand in hand with the attractivity and turn the attempts on optimal control of the fermentation process into a very delicate challenge. To tackle it, the theory of the gradient projection method has been partially adapted and fully implemented by the authors of this paper. Numerical experiments show its significantly better performance than for other known methods. Moreover, these experiments reveal an interesting "superprofile" visible for long cultivation times.

In this work, we present two unconstrained MPC schemes using additional weighting terms which allow to obtain improved stability conditions. First, we consider unconstrained MPC with general terminal cost functions. If the terminal cost is not a control Lyapunov function, but satisfies a relaxed condition, then our results yield improved estimates for a stabilizing prediction horizon. Furthermore, our analysis also allows to recover two well-known results as special cases: if the terminal cost function is chosen as zero, we recover previous conditions on the length of the prediction horizon such that stability is guaranteed; and if the terminal cost is a control Lyapunov function conform to the stage cost, stability follows independently of the length of the prediction horizon. Second, we propose to use an exponential weighting on the stage cost in order to improve the stability properties of the closed-loop. This also allows to consider local controllability assumptions in combination with a suitable terminal constraints and thereby gives a connection to the classical MPC approaches using terminal constraints.

Future advanced driver assistance systems will contain multiple sensors that are used for several applications, such as highly automated driving on freeways. The problem is that the sensors are usually asynchronous and their data possibly out-of-sequence, making fusion of the sensor data non-trivial. This paper presents a novel approach to track-to-track fusion for automotive applications with asynchronous and out-of-sequence sensors using information matrix fusion. This approach solves the problem of correlation between sensor data due to the common process noise and common track history, which eliminates the need to replace the global track estimate with the fused local estimate at each fusion cycle. The information matrix fusion approach is evaluated in simulation and its performance demonstrated using real sensor data on a test vehicle designed for highly automated driving on freeways.

In this paper, we propose a systematic approach for the constructive design of adaptive control systems for nonlinear uncertain systems subject to state constraints. The analysis is restricted to a class of nonlinear systems in strict feedback form with respect to the state constraints. A novel adaptive estimation routine is employed to estimate both the unknown parameters and an approximate uncertainty sets, which is decreasing over time. The approximate uncertainty set is utilized to define a sequence of robustly controlled invariant sets which are strictly contained in the feasible set.

Recently, necessary and sufficient conditions for output synchronization of linear systems via diffusive couplings have been reported. In this paper, we study the case when such conditions are not satisfied and exact synchronization is impossible. In particular, we study two kinds of heterogeneous linear networks: (i) non-identical harmonic oscillators and (ii) double-integrators. We show that static diffusive couplings render heterogeneous networks of harmonic oscillators asymptotically stable. Networks of non-identical double-integrators, in contrast, are not asymptotically stable but synchronize with bounded synchronization error depending on the network topology and the heterogeneity in the agent dynamics. Numerical examples illustrate the results.
