The dynamic stability of a mobile manipulator using ZMP compensation is considered. A unified approach for the two subsystems is formulated using a redundant scheme. First, to conserve the dynamic stability of the system, we define the performance index for the redundant system using the ZMP (zero moment point). This performance index represents the stability of the whole mobile manipulator system. Then, the redundancy resolution problem for optimizing the given performance index is solved using the null motion. Finally, the performance of this method is demonstrated by simulation study.

This paper presents a decentralized Proportional-Integral(PI) sliding mode tracking control for a class of robotmanipulators. A robust decentralized sliding modecontroller is derived so that in each of the sub-system,the actual trajectory tracks the desired trajectory usingthe information available only on the local states. The PIsliding mode is chosen to ensure the stability of overalldynamics during the entire period i.e. the reaching phaseand the sliding phase. It is shown theoretically and bysimulation that manipulator systems controlled by theproposed decentralized control law are practically stable.

A multimodal Internet-based telepresence system with interactive stereo vision, additional photo-realistic predictive display, and kinesthetic bilateral coupling in three degrees of freedom is presented. For easy coupling of various telepresence components by a unified interface structure and a generic link management protocol a CORBA based interconnection framework has been developed. By solving a peg-in-hole task in an industrial environment and with varying communication delay times, the system provides all capabilities for multimodal telepresent remote maintenance and assembly.

The efficient solution of a class of controller approximation problems by using frequency-weighted balancing related model reduction approaches is considered. It is shown that for certain standard performance and stability enforcing frequency-weights, the computation of the frequency-weighted controllability and observability grammians can be done by solving reduced order Lyapunov equations regardless the controller itself is stable or unstable. The new approach can be used in conjunction with accuracy enhancing square-root and balancing-free techniques recently developed by the authors for the frequency-weighted balancing related model reduction.

In the paper an application of fuzzy neural networks (FNN) for sensor fault diagnosis in condensation turbine control unit was given. The FNN are applied for fault detection and isolation processes. This approach gives the homogenous solution of fault detection and isolation process (FDI). The FNN models of turbine power, live steam pressure and steam mass flow rate were created and verified. Satisfactory models' performance indexes were obtained. The fault sensitivity of residuals was investigated and approved.

This paper presents the development of a Proportional-Integral sliding mode controller to control a class of uncertain systems. It is assumed that the plant to be controlled can be represented by its nominal and bounded parametric uncertainties. A robust sliding mode controller is newly derived so that the actual trajectory tracks the desired trajectory as closely as possible despite the non-linearities and input couplings present in the system. The Proportional-Integral sliding mode is chosen to ensure the stability of overall dynamics during the entire period i.e. the reaching phase and the sliding phase. The controller is applied to the control of a two-link planar robot manipulator.

This paper shows how to find the optimal trajectory with respect to a certain cost when a kinematically redundant manipulator is subject to joint kinematic limits. Relevant mathematical properties in accordance with our intuition are strictly enlightened to be useful for this seemingly easy albeit complicated problem. Key terms of 'reducibility' and '(weak) optimal extensionability' are defined for further discussion of the solution. The final solution is basically achieved by the composition of applying the extended Jacobian method on each joint space where the joint coordinates saturated with the limits are eliminated. We would then be able to understand how the transition query is characterized and why the solution should be in that way. The simulation example would reveal how the solution gets links with our physical intuition and this would make us cope with unexpected algorithmic singularities.

This work investigates the efficacy of software simulations of electronic circuits laboratories to support beginning electrical engineering students. Experiment 1 was a formative evaluation of an Electronic Laboratory Simulator (ELS), as an optional add-on to physical labs for 120 subjects at four universities. All subjects received the same treatment: their normal classes and physical labs, with optional use of simulated labs. Subjects took written tests specific to the lab's content, before and after using each simulated lab. Only subjects who took both pre- and post-tests were included. Pre- and post-test comparisons indicated significant improvement in both theory and lab knowledge when scores for all labs were combined, but inconsistent performance on individual labs. As the treatment included other learning opportunities in addition to simulated labs, the results were not attributed to the simulations, but provided initial indications and qualitative data on subjects' experiences. These helped to improve the labs and the implementation strategies. Experiment 2 used 40 college sophomores in a beginning electronic circuits lab. Physical lab subjects received seven physical labs. Combined lab subjects received a combination of seven simulated labs and two physical labs. The latter repeated two of the simulated labs to provide physical lab practice. Both treatments used the same assignments. Learner outcome measures were: (a) time required to complete a new criterion physical lab;(b) score on written lab and theory tests over all the labs;and (c) comments on the lab experience. The group that used combined simulated and physical labs performed significantly better on the written tests than the group using entirely physical labs. Both groups were equivalent in time to complete the criterion physical lab. Comments about the simulated labs were generally positive, and also provided specific suggestions for changes.

In this paper, a simple direct parameter update rule is presented to suppress the vibration more quickly, considering the dynamics of flexible subsystem. Different from most of adaptive control schemes in multilink flexible robots, which is a model-independent approach, the proposed adaptive control utilizes model parameters and updates them. Usually, the precise modeling of multi-link flexible robot is hard to obtain and even if we can get it, it is difficult to use in the online control tasks. Due to these reasons, a simplified model is used to describe the robot dynamics. The modelling errors and other structured uncertainty are considered as parameter perturbation. We verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm through experiments.
