A sliding mode control (SMC) approach was used in a pneumatic force control servo-system with uncertainties and external disturbances in this paper. To reach exact force control in pneumatic force servo-system, the E/P pressure proportional valve was used as an electro-pneumatic converter in constructing an electro-pneumatic force control servo system. The dynamic model of the pneumatic force servo system was built firstly, and then a boundary layer approach was used to the design of controller, in which using a saturation function to substitute for the sign function based on Lyapunov theory. Finally, the performance of the controller was simulated and tested. The results show that the system performance has been much improved when compared with a conventional PID controller, and it has a good control precision and robustness

This paper presents the hardware in the loop simulation of an Adaptive Headlight System for motor vehicles. The headlamp orientation control system rotates the right and left low beam headlights independently. It also possesses an automatic headlamp levelling system, which, in addition to compensating for different loads, also cancels out the pitching effect during acceleration or braking to provide better night time visibility. The real time vehicle model used in this paper is the single track model with a half car suspension system. The hardware-in-the-loop simulation setup proposed for testing the adaptive headlight concept is based on a driving simulator. Real time simulations using this simulator are used to illustrate the approach.

This paper discussed an Internet-based telerehabilitation sharing system, which aims to achieve the situation where multiple stay home patients in different places can share rehabilitation instruction of one physical therapist at the same time. After the introduction, three main problems are described in this paper. Firstly the stability problem of the master-slave system with variable time delay which is the biggest problem of the tele-control system is focused on, the time delay and its effect to the system is described and the control architecture is proposed; then the operation method of the whole system with single-master and multi-slave is described; After that, the wound-tube actuator and tail-wrist which will be used as slave in the tele-rehabilitation system is introduced

This paper presents a method for optimally generating stable bipedal walking gaits, based on a truncated Fourier series formulation with coefficients tuned by genetic algorithm. It also provides a way to adjust the stride-frequency, step-length or walking pattern in real-time. The proposed approach to gait synthesis is not limited by the robot kinematic structure and can be used to satisfy various motion assumptions. It is also easy to generate optimal gaits on terrains of different slopes or on stairs under different motion requirements. Dynamic simulation results show the validity and robustness of the approach. The gaits generated resulted in human-like motions optimized for stability, even walking speed and lower leg-strike velocity of the swing foot

In this paper, robust force/motion control strategies are presented for mobile manipulators under both holonomic and nonholonomic constraints in the presence of uncertainties and disturbances. Robust controls are proposed based on a simplified dynamic model, the defined reference signals and the mixed tracking errors. The proposed control strategies guarantee that the system motion converges to the desired manifold with prescribed performance. Constraint force control is developed, which does not utilize force feedback control but is based on the passivity of hybrid joint. Experiment results validate not only the states of the system asymptotically converge to the desired trajectory but also the constraint force asymptotically converges to the desired force

A semi active suspension system for a light commercial vehicle, based on four shock absorbers with continuously adjustable damping characteristics is treated in this paper. Quarter car, half car and full car simulation models are developed. These models are used to develop and test the low level and high level suspension controllers. Several different low level control algorithms like: skyhook, groundhook and hybrid control were considered. The higher level supervisory controller coordinates the operation of the four low level suspension controllers during acceleration/braking, entering curves or evasive maneuvers. The experimental vehicle that is used to test the developed controllers is also presented along with experimental results.

Many industrial plants exhibit nontrivial interactions of continuous-valued and discrete-valued controls and states. These interactions can be studied using the formalism of hybrid systems. Hybrid systems are now a hot research topic in system and control theory. However, despite considerable application potential of hybrid systems theory, the control of hybrid systems is still mostly a purely theoretical topic limited to simulation experiments at best. This paper proposes a more practical alternative. In the first part, it describes a laboratory scale plant that is designed in such a way that it exhibits most of the hybrid phenomena typical of process control applications. Further, it focuses on potential control problems that arise from the interactions of continuous and discrete valued dynamics and controls. These problems are elucidated using detailed proposals of control experiments that can be performed with this plant.

control systems design has traditionally been treated separately from the design of its software and hardware implementation. The increasing use of embedded control in for example distributed, safety critical and mass-produced systems has caused an increasing need for the simultaneous consideration of the control system and its implementation platform during development. To this end, there is a need for both theoretical contributions and supporting tools that assist designers in understanding and analyzing the intricate relationships between the qualities, such as control performance, robustness and cost, and design parameters related to control system and platform design. This paper explores issues in co-design. A number of representative tools are compared with the purposes of illustrating different approaches concerning the levels of abstraction, analysis vs. synthesis features, constraints addressed and usability features. A perspective to the co-design tools is also provided, where opportunities and challenges for future design environments are discussed.
