In this paper, model predictive control is applied to an inverted pendulum apparatus and the effect of input disturbance are studied. The optimization problem is solved on-line using quadratic programming approach on a PC hardware platform.
Obtaining the joint variables that result in a desired position of the robot end-effector called as inverse kinematics is one of the most important problems in robot kinematics and control. As the complexity of robot increases, obtaining the inverse kinematics solution requires the solution of non linear equations having transcendental functions are difficult and computationally expensive. This paper...
This paper describes a new geometrical method to solve the inverse kinematic problem for hyper redundant manipulators. The proposed method finds one solution from these infinite solutions. By using this method, the angles between each adjacent links are the same, which makes controlling the movement of these links easier and makes a lining up of two or more joint axes not possible, i.e. very effective...
This paper presents the design of a set of sliding mode controllers for a quadrotor vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) unmanned air vehicle. To facilitate the design process of this under-actuated system, this paper proposes the use of a simple yet effective method to plan the action of each variable controller in the system and hence enhance the performance of the quadrotor. To stabilize the overall...
This paper presents a model based approach for real time leakage detection in a nonlinear multi tank flow rig. A state space model of the process was derived based on the expansion of the nonlinear function into a Taylor's series about the operating point and the retention of only the linear term. The model based approach performs consistency checks of the process against the state space model of...
