Book Advanced Control of Wheeled Inverted Pendulum Systems

Download or read book Advanced Control of Wheeled Inverted Pendulum Systems written by Zhijun Li and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-07-13 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced Control of Wheeled Inverted Pendulum Systems is an orderly presentation of recent ideas for overcoming the complications inherent in the control of wheeled inverted pendulum (WIP) systems, in the presence of uncertain dynamics, nonholonomic kinematic constraints as well as underactuated configurations. The text leads the reader in a theoretical exploration of problems in kinematics, dynamics modeling, advanced control design techniques and trajectory generation for WIPs. An important concern is how to deal with various uncertainties associated with the nominal model, WIPs being characterized by unstable balance and unmodelled dynamics and being subject to time-varying external disturbances for which accurate models are hard to come by. The book is self-contained, supplying the reader with everything from mathematical preliminaries and the basic Lagrange-Euler-based derivation of dynamics equations to various advanced motion control and force control approaches as well as trajectory generation method. Although primarily intended for researchers in robotic control, Advanced Control of Wheeled Inverted Pendulum Systems will also be useful reading for graduate students studying nonlinear systems more generally.

Book Robust and Intelligent Control of a Typical Underactuated Robot

Download or read book Robust and Intelligent Control of a Typical Underactuated Robot written by Jian Huang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-09 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the achievements of the author's team in the research of a special underactuated system called mobile wheeled inverted pendulum (MWIP) developed over recent years. It focuses on a combination of theory and practice, and almost all algorithms are verified on the real MWIP system. Taking the dynamic modeling, control, and simulation as the mainline, this book first introduces the particularity, control challenges, and applications of the MWIP system. Then, Lagrange function is adopted to model the dynamics of two-dimensional and three-dimensional MWIP systems. Then, based on the special characteristics of the MWIP’s dynamics, a new high-order disturbance observer is designed, and a control strategy is proposed by combining the high-order disturbance observer with a novel design of sliding mode manifold. Furthermore, several methods to overcome the chattering problem of the traditional sliding mode control are presented in detail. Besides, some intelligent algorithms related to the interval type-2 fuzzy logic control are applied to the MWIP system. Finally, the future development of underactuated robot has been prospected.This book is intended for researchers and engineers in robotics and control. It can also be used as supplementary reading for nonlinear systems theory at the graduate level. The in-depth theory and detailed platform construction provide an excellent convenience for readers to build their platforms and learn the knowledge they need.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph describes the Reaction Wheel Pendulum, the newest inverted-pendulum-like device for control education and research. We discuss the history and background of the reaction wheel pendulum and other similar experimental devices. We develop mathematical models of the reaction wheel pendulum in depth, including linear and nonlinear models, and models of the sensors and actuators that are used for feedback control. We treat various aspects of the control problem, from linear control of themotor, to stabilization of the pendulum about an equilibrium configuration using linear control, to the nonlinear control problem of swingup control. We also discuss hybrid and switching control, which is useful for switching between the swingup and balance controllers. We also discuss important practical issues such as friction modeling and friction compensation, quantization of sensor signals, and saturation. This monograph can be used as a supplement for courses in feedback control at the undergraduate level, courses in mechatronics, or courses in linear and nonlinear state space control at the graduate level. It can also be used as a laboratory manual and as a reference for research in nonlinear control.

Book Cognitive Robotics   Control

Download or read book Cognitive Robotics Control written by Cecilio Angulo and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robotics and control are both research and application domains that have been frequently engineered through the use of interdisciplinary approaches like cybernetics. Cognition is a particular concept of this approach, abstracted from the context of living organisms to that of artificial devices, and is concerned with knowledge acquisition and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses. Cognitive robotics and control refer to knowledge processing as much as knowledge generation from problem understanding, leading to special forms of architectures that enable systems to behave in an autonomous way. The main aim of this book is to highlight emerging applications and address recent breakthroughs in the domain of cognitive robotics and control and related areas. Procedures, algorithms, architectures, and implementations for reasoning, problem solving, or decision making are considered in the domain of robotics and control.

Book Fuzzy Adaptive Control of a Two wheeled Inverted Pendulum

Download or read book Fuzzy Adaptive Control of a Two wheeled Inverted Pendulum written by Tianqi Xi and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, the two-wheeled inverted pendulum has drawn the attention of robotic community in view of a plethora of applications, such as transport vehicles: Segway, teleconferencing robots, and electronic network-vehicle. As a widely-used personal transportation vehicle, a two-wheeled inverted pendulum robot has the advantages of small size and simple structure. Moreover, with the advent of modern control technology, these kinds of platforms with safety features and sophisticated control functions can be cost down, so that they have high potential to satisfy stringent requirements of various autonomous service robots with high speed. At the same time, it is of great interest from control point of view as the inverted pendulum is a complicated, strongly coupled, unstable and nonlinear system. Therefore, it is an ideal experimental platform for various control theories and experiments. To understand such a complex system, the Lagrangian equation has been introduced to develop a dynamic model. And following the mathematical model, linear quadratic regulator control and fuzzy adaptive method are proposed for upright stabilization, velocity control and position control of the system. However, sometimes these kinds of robots need to move on a slope, so an advanced linear quadratic regulator controller and a modified fuzzy adaptive controller have been proposed to achieve position control on a slope for the robot while stabilizing its body in balance. In addition, trajectory tracking control using proportional integral derivative control and sliding mode control with fuzzy adaptive backstepping method is also designed to make the robot autonomously navigate in two dimensional plane. Simulation results indicate that the proposed controllers are capable of providing appropriate control actions to steer the vehicle in desired manners. Then, a couple of real time experiments have been conducted to verify the the effectiveness of the developed control strategies.
