Standing wave acoustic levitation transportation technique has been widely used in many research areas. In this work, two Langevin-type piezoelectric transducers’ central lines are mounted at a certain angle which is named a contraposition transducer array. The levitator developed in this work is constructed using the array and a reflector. Accordingly, a standing wave acoustic field is formed to levitate and transport particles by optimizing the angle between central lines of the two transducers, the distance between the two transducers’ output and their reflectors, the exciting phase differential on the two transducers. In this standing wave acoustic field, the trapped objects can be levitated and transported by modulating the exciting phase difference of the two transducers. In this work, the locations of the levitated particles are acquired by a high speed video camera and are clarified using the Hough Circle algorithm. The experiments carried out by the authors have demonstrated the effects of the levitator’s structure parameters (including the angle between central lines of the two transducers, the distance between the two transducers’ output and the reflector) on the transportation trajectory.

In this work, a standing wave acoustic field formed by using two contraposition transducers is used to classify the mixed powder. COMSOL-based simulations reveal the influence of the factors on the drop trajectories of the particles within an acoustic field. Then the experiments are carried out to demonstrate those obtained using COMSOL-based simulations. Finally, the separation experiments of the mixed powder of iron and dioxide silica are achieved, including the mixed powder both in the same diameter and the different diameter respectively.

In this paper, the control problem of a quadrotor tracking a moving target is investigated. The method is based on image-based visual servoing (IBVS) scheme. The target is assumed to be moving with unknown, time varying and bounded linear velocity, linear acceleration, and angular velocity and acceleration of the yaw angle. First, appropriate moment features defined in a rotated image plane are chosen as image features, and a decoupled image feature dynamics is achieved. Then, using these features, a nonlinear controller is proposed for the quadrotor to track a moving target. The controller is proved uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB) by means of Lyapunov analysis. With this image-based control formulization, several state variables are not needed by the controller. These variables are: the depths of the point features which are usually needed in traditional IBVS schemes, the relative position between the quadrotor and the moving target, the velocity of the moving target, and the translational velocity of the quadrotor itself. Finally, several simulations of a quadrotor tracking a moving target are conducted to validate this method.

High-stiffness servo system is easy to cause mechanical resonance in elastic coupling servo system. Although on-line adaptive notch filter is effective in most cases, it will lead to a severer resonance when resonance frequency deviated from the natural torsional frequency. To explain this phenomenon, an improved discrete system model is proposed. This paper quantitatively analyzes the influence of damping, discretization and current loop time constant on mechanical oscillation frequency. A conclusion is drawn that the most effective notch frequency is the natural torsional frequency when resonant frequency is deviate. Simulation and experimental results verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the theoretical analysis.

For motor control applications, the speed loop performance is largely depended on the accuracy of speed feedback signal. M/T method, due to its high theoretical accuracy, is the most widely used in incremental encoder adopted speed measurement. However, the inherent encoder optical grating error and A/D conversion error make it hard to achieve theoretical speed measurement accuracy. In this paper, hardware caused speed measurement errors are analyzed and modeled in detail; a Single-Phase Self-adaptive M/T method is proposed to ideally suppress speed measurement error. In the end, simulation and experiment show the advantages and verify the validity of the proposed method.

The space manipulator which has advantages of high dexterity and universality, is used to the space capturing usually. According to the different types of mechanical interfaces of targets, the on orbit capturing operation includes capturing of cooperative target and capturing of uncooperative target. The performances of the famous large space manipulators named space shuttle remote manipulator system(SRMS), the space station remote manipulator system(SSRMS) and the Europe robotic arm(ERA) are reviewed and studied respectively. Moreover, the space manipulators being developed by China for space station is also surveyed. Based on the performance analysis of the large space manipulators and end-effectors, which are adapted to the construction and daily maintenance for the large space structure such as the space station, the basic requirements of large misalignment tolerance capability, soft capturing capability and hard docking capability for the end-effector of large space manipulator are proposed in this paper. According to these requirements, the capture mechanism and methods that can enable the end-effector to have the capability of misalignment tolerance and soft capturing are presented. The development trend and key technologies of the large space manipulators and the end-effectors are also reviewed.
