Download or read book Coordinated energy efficient walking assistance for paraplegic patients by using the exoskeleton walker system written by Chen Yang and published by OAE Publishing Inc.. This book was released on 2024-03-19 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overground walking can be achieved for patients with gait impairments by using the lower limb exoskeleton robots. Since it is a challenge to keep balance for patients with insufficient upper body strength, a robotic walker is necessary to assist with the walking balance. However, since the walking pattern varies over time, controlling the robotic walker to follow the walking of the human-exoskeleton system in coordination is a critical issue. Inappropriate control strategy leads to the unnecessary energy cost of the human-exoskeleton-walker (HEW) system and also results in the bad coordination between the human-exoskeleton system and the robotic walker. In this paper, we proposed a Coordinated Energy-Efficient Control (CEEC) approach for the HEW system, which is based on the extremum seeking control algorithm and the coordinated motion planning strategy. First, the extremum seeking control algorithm is used to find the optimal supporting force of the support joint in real time to maximize the energy efficiency of the human-exoskeleton system. Second, the appropriate reference joint angles for wheels of the robotic walker can be generated by the coordinated motion planning strategy, causing the good coordination between the human-exoskeleton system and the robotic walker. The proposed approach has been tested on the HEW simulation model, and the experimental results indicate that the coordinated energy-efficient walking can be achieved with the proposed approach, which is increased by 60.16% compared to the conventional passive robotic walker.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motion Control Systems is concerned with design methods that support the never-ending requirements for faster and more accurate control of mechanical motion. The book presents material that is fundamental, yet at the same time discusses the solution of complex problems in motion control systems. Methods presented in the book are based on the authors' original research results. Mathematical complexities are kept to a required minimum so that practicing engineers as well as students with a limited background in control may use the book. It is unique in presenting know-how accumulated through work on very diverse problems into a comprehensive unified approach suitable for application in high demanding, high-tech products. Major issues covered include motion control ranging from simple trajectory tracking and force control, to topics related to haptics, bilateral control with and without delay in measurement and control channels, as well as control of nonredundant and redundant multibody systems.

Download or read book Industrial Motion Control written by Dr. Hakan Gurocak and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-10-19 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motion control is widely used in all types of industries including packaging, assembly, textile, paper, printing, food processing, wood products, machinery, electronics and semiconductor manufacturing. Industrial motion control applications use specialized equipment and require system design and integration. To design such systems, engineers need to be familiar with industrial motion control products; be able to bring together control theory, kinematics, dynamics, electronics, simulation, programming and machine design; apply interdisciplinary knowledge; and deal with practical application issues. The book is intended to be an introduction to the topic for senior level undergraduate mechanical and electrical engineering students. It should also be resource for system design engineers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, project managers, industrial engineers, manufacturing engineers, product managers, field engineers, and programmers in industry.
Download or read book Passivity Based Control and Estimation in Networked Robotics written by Takeshi Hatanaka and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-04-10 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highlighting the control of networked robotic systems, this book synthesizes a unified passivity-based approach to an emerging cross-disciplinary subject. Thanks to this unified approach, readers can access various state-of-the-art research fields by studying only the background foundations associated with passivity. In addition to the theoretical results and techniques, the authors provide experimental case studies on testbeds of robotic systems including networked haptic devices, visual robotic systems, robotic network systems and visual sensor network systems. The text begins with an introduction to passivity and passivity-based control together with the other foundations needed in this book. The main body of the book consists of three parts. The first examines how passivity can be utilized for bilateral teleoperation and demonstrates the inherent robustness of the passivity-based controller against communication delays. The second part emphasizes passivity’s usefulness for visual feedback control and estimation. Convergence is rigorously proved even when other passive components are interconnected. The passivity approach is also differentiated from other methodologies. The third part presents the unified passivity-based control-design methodology for multi-agent systems. This scheme is shown to be either immediately applicable or easily extendable to the solution of various motion coordination problems including 3-D attitude/pose synchronization, flocking control and cooperative motion estimation. Academic researchers and practitioners working in systems and control and/or robotics will appreciate the potential of the elegant and novel approach to the control of networked robots presented here. The limited background required and the case-study work described also make the text appropriate for and, it is hoped, inspiring to students.

Book excerpt: Robotics applications, initially developed for industrial and manufacturing contexts, are now strongly present in several elds. Besides well-known space and high-technology applications, robotics for every day life and medical s- vices is becoming more and more popular. As an example, robotic manipu- tors are particularly useful in surgery and radiation treatments, they could be employed for civil demining, for helping disabled people, and ultimately for domestic tasks, entertainment and education. Such a kind of robotic app- cations require the integration of many di erent skills. Autonomous vehicles and mobile robots in general must be integrated with articulated manipu- tors. Many robotic technologies (sensors, actuators and computing systems) must be properly used with speci c technologies (localisation, planning and control technologies). The task of designing robots for these applications is a hard challenge: a speci c competence in each area is demanded, in the e ort of a truly integrated multidisciplinary design.
