In this paper, we investigate ultimate boundedness of large-scale arrays consisting of piecewise affine (PWA) sub-systems linearly interconnected through channels with delays. Under an assumption on subsystem dynamics, it is shown that ultimate boundedness can be reduced to the stability of a linear delay differential system. This enables us to use linear multi-agent system theory. As a result, we obtain sufficient conditions for ultimate boundedness taking the robustness of the interconnection topology into account. The usefulness of the results is examined through its application to the FitzHugh-Nagumo model.

This paper aims to the further improve of the previously developed design for the Acrobot walking based on the partial exact feedback linearization of order 3. Namely, such an exact system transformation leads to an almost linear system where error dynamics along trajectory to be tracked is a 4 dimensional linear time varying system having 3 time varying entries only. Unlike previous approaches treating time varying entries as uncertainties with various extent of conservatism, the present paper takes into the account an information about these time varying functions including their derivatives up to order 4. Using that, the time varying state and the feedback transformation enable to design a fundamental matrix of the error dynamics in an explicit form and pre-designed stability properties. In particular, product of that fundamental matrix at the end of the single support walking phase by the impact map Jacobian enables directly prove stability of the hybrid cyclic walking like trajectory by computing certain 4×4 matrix and determining numerically whether its eigenvalues lie within the unit circle. This combination of analytical and numerical computations provides the justification of the exponential stability of the walking-like trajectory tracking. Moreover, it is supported by numerical simulations showing practically unlimited number of steps of the Acrobot “walking”.

This paper proposes a novel independent joint control concept on a 3 DOF flexible link robot subject to deflections caused by gravity. The scheme dampens induced link oscillations in the presence of configuration dependant plant frequency and damping variations by integrating link strain feedback and impulse based input shaping. The approach is robust and the control does not depend on a dynamic model at runtime. The damping efficiency is evaluated experimentally in terms of strain measurement as well as end-effector position across the entire workspace.

Reducing weight and inertias of conventional robot arms with an elastic structure allows safer interactive cooperation between humans and robots. While the end effector pose of a rigid robot is determined by the forward kinematic chain, the pose of elastic arms results from a superposition of the rigid kinematics and the pose dependent deflection caused by gravity. This property complicates the computation of forward and inverse kinematics in particular in case of dynamic loads. This paper presents a machine learning approach to extract various nonlinear regression models of the forward and inverse kinematics of a three degrees of freedom (DOF) flexible-link robot arm with dynamic loads from experimental data. The forward model predicts the target pose, given the joint angles and the strain signals while the inverse kinematic model predicts the joint angles required to assume a target pose. The transformation of the original features onto suitable nonlinear features substantially improves the generalisation ability of the both forward and inverse kinematic model. The closed loop inverse kinematic controller archieves a pose accuracy of 3 mm and the results show that the learned model can solve the inverse kinematics problem of flexible robot arms with sufficient accuracy even with unknown payloads.

In this paper we propose a distributed algorithm for solving linear programs with combinations of local and global constraints in a multi-agent setup. A fully distributed and asynchronous algorithm is proposed. The computation of the local decision makers involves the solution of two distinct (local) optimization problems, namely a local copy of a global linear program and a smaller problem used to generate "problem columns". We show that, when running the proposed algorithm, all decision makers agree on a common optimal solution, even if the original problem has several optimal solutions, or detect unboundedness and infeasibility if necessary.

Abstract In this note, we study the problem of multiple hard output constraints imposed on a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) subject to external disturbances. Constraints on the concentration and on the temperature are considered. We show, analytically and with simulations, that there are critical combinations of constraints, where robust constraint satisfaction cannot be guaranteed. As a consequence violation of at least one constraint has to be allowed.

Path planning for robotic manipulators interacting with obstacles is considered, where an end-effector is to be driven to a goal region in minimum time, collisions are to be avoided, and kinematic and dynamic constraints are to be obeyed. The obstacles can be time-varying in their positions, but the positions should be known or estimated over the prediction horizon for planning the path. This non-convex optimization problem can be approximated by Mixed Integer Programs (MIPs), which usually leads to a large number of binary variables, and hence, to inacceptable computational time for the planning. In this paper, we present a geometric result whose application drastically reduces the number of binary decision variables in the aforementioned MIPs for 3D motion planning problems. This leads to a reduction in computational time, which is demonstrated for different scenarios.
