The passivity property of dissipative mechanical structures has long been exploited in designing passive controllers that provide robust stability even in the presence of unmodeled dynamics of the system. For an input/output map of a flexible structure to be passive, collocation of the actuators and sensors is required and also the sensors should measure the velocity of the system. The so-called smart structures frequently have more sensors than actuators. Therefore, the passive controller can at best utilize only a subset of the sensors. In this paper we consider the design of a squaring down matrix which would render a system passive subject to some additional performance considerations. The problem of obtaining the synthesized passive output is cast as a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) which can be efficiently solved by the LMI Toolbox in Matlab. We apply this procedure with the assumption that the sensors provide both displacement and velocity information which is generally not true. We show that the passive controllers can be implemented without the use of velocity information. By using synthesized passive outputs in addition to naturally occurring passive outputs, we obtain better system performance. We present experimental results involving a single flexible beam with torque input and hub angular position and strain gage outputs.

We consider the feedback stabilization of nonlinear systems. The design methodology is based on a class of iterative methods, which has previously been proposed for the path planning and feedback stabilization of nonholonomic systems. We show that this scheme guarantees the closed loop asymptotic stability for a class of nonlinear systems.

This paper introduces a new feedback algorithm for steering a point robot through an obstacle field. The key innovation is the use of a circulatory field to rotate the robot path around the obstacles instead of the common potential field which repels the robot. This idea is motivated by a charged particle in a magnetic field generated by a current flowing around the obstacle. In constrast, the potential field approach is associated with a repulsive static electric field generated by charges of the same polarity as the robot, on the obstacle. The circulatory field does not generate any spurious local minimum as it does not change the total energy of the system. By combining with an attractive potential field associated with the desired destination, this method achieves global convergence while avoiding collisions with obstacles.

作者： R. Joshi A.C. Sanderson NYS Center for Advanced Technology in Automation Robotics and Manufacturing and Electrical Computer and Systems Engineering Department Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Troy NY USA

This paper presents an application of feature-based visual servoing to achieve accurate and robust 3D filament alignment. Two orthogonal cameras are used to localize the five degrees of freedom of an axi-symmetric filament. An algorithm for precisely estimating the center and orientation features of a filament in a camera view is described. The use of feature-based servoing overcomes the difficulty of 3D camera calibration in a factory environment. These features drive a PID control loop for each view. The two views are coupled in one degree of freedom, and the multiple-view controller switches between two single-view controllers to achieve 3D servoing. The overall accuracy achieved is in thousandths of an inch. Experimental results on the performance of the control algorithm are discussed. Models explaining the system behavior are presented. The use of visual servoing in this application far exceeds the positioning accuracy and the repeatability of human operators.

Characterization of Singular Controls for Nonholonomic Path Planning

A class of Iterative algorithms have been proposed in recent years for the nonholonomic motion planning problem. The convergence of these algorithms predicates on the control signal in each iteration be "nonsingular". At the present, the singularity structure is only identified for the unicycle and front-wheel-drive car kinematic models. In this paper, we extend the consideration to all systems reducible to one-chain form, which include unicycle, car, as well as any N-trailer system. In particular, we show that a control is singular if and only if the first control variable is identically zero. We also identified all singular controls for the ball rolling on a plate problem. which is not reducible to the one-chain form.

TETROBOT is a modular system for the design, implementation, and control of a class of highly redundant parallel robotic mechanisms. This paper describes new experimental results based on evaluation of prototype configurations with up to 18 nodes, 48 links and 15 actuators. TETROBOT is an actuated robotic structure which may be reassembled into many different configurations while still being controlled by the same hardware and software architecture. Implementations of a double octahedral platform, a tetrahedral arm and a six-legged walker, constructed from the same set of parts, are described. The TETROBOT system addresses the needs of application domains, such as space, undersea, mining, and construction, where adaptation to unstructured and changing environments and custom design for rapid implementation are required.

Parallel robots can be built by linking together unit cells in configurations which retain the static determinacy of the overall structure. In the Tetrobot system, the kinematics of these concatenated structures can be solved by propagation of solutions through connected graphs of linked modules. In this paper, we examine the synthesis of unit cells which could be used in creating these structures and retain the ability to compute the kinematics for control of the actuated system. Admissible unit cells are shown to form families in two- and three-dimensions, and a set of synthesis rules is described which generates the members of these families recursively for each generations. The resulting set of modules comprises a broad set of useful cells which can be used to design parallel robots and guarantee the computability of their kinematics on a cell-by-cell basis.

An object-oriented modular approach to the engineering of complex robotic systems emphasizes reliability, reusability, ease of development, and user and network interfaces. This modular approach integrates many architectural principles and computational techniques which support adaptive and learning capability at the local, modular level. The TETROBOT is a modular and reconfigurable robotic system which was developed to demonstrate the reliable performance in a wide variety of task domains through reconfiguration of the same fundamental hardware and software components. Such a modular approach emphasizes the synthesis and integration of engineering modules and takes advantage of object-oriented engineering principles to design for a family of tasks. This paper provides an overview of the TETROBOT modular system and describes three modular systems in other applications domains.

This paper describes an algorithm for adjusting a robot motion plan in order to make it feasible in spite of control and sensing uncertainties in the robot configuration. The type of motion plan considered consists of a nominal commanded path, augmented by sensing mode specifications. The algorithm uses a bounding-set representation of uncertainties, which is also described. The control uncertainty is history independent, but the sensing uncertainty at one point in a plan depends on the prior sensing actions and the path traversed. The algorithm is a path-space algorithm, because it adjusts the entire plan simultaneously as it carries out the search.

The demand for effective project management increases as the complexity and cost of a project grown. This paper introduces an interactive project management approach based on the Petri net to overcome the limitations of network diagrams. In the Petri net based approach, the project manager does fine tuning of the planning and scheduling with the resource constraints embedded in the plan representation. The Petri net controller maintains three plan representations. The reference, monitor and predictor Petri nets. These three nets are configured with the resource database to form a feedback loop such that the controller can monitor and control the project online. This structure is applicable to the control of more general discrete event dynamic systems as well as the project management problem. In case no admissible control action can be found, the manager turns to the rescheduling/replanning mode to generate a new plan and schedule.
