Electrospinning produces submicron fibers for a variety of applications using a wide range of polymers. Achieving the desired fiber diameter, maximizing productivity, and minimizing variation are important production objectives. This paper addresses several important areas needed to develop a general electrospinning control approach including: developing a correlation between measurements, process conditions, and the resulting fiber diameter, developing a method to determine an operating regime that meets manufacturing objectives, and identifying process dynamics for controller design.

This paper presents a study of the dynamics and control of a helicopter carrying a payload through a cable-suspended robot. The helicopter can perform gross motion, while the cable suspended robot underneath the helicopter can modulate a platform in position and orientation. Due to the under-actuated nature of the helicopter, the operation of this dual system consisting of the helicopter and the cable robot is challenging. We propose here a two time scale control method, which makes it possible to control the helicopter and the cable robot independently. In addition, this method provides an effective estimation on the bound of the motion of the helicopter. Therefore, even in the case where the helicopter motion is unknown, the cable robot can be stabilized by implementing a robust controller. Simulation results of the dual system show that the proposed control approach is effective for such a helicopter-robot system.

This paper presents solutions of dynamics, inverse dynamics, and control problems of multi-link flexible manipulators. In deriving the manipulator dynamics, flexible deformations are assumed to be small in relation to the link length, angular rates of the links are assumed to be much smaller than their fundamental frequencies, and nonlinear terms (centrifugal and Coriolis forces) in the flexible manipulator model are assumed to be the same as those in the rigid body model. Flexible displacements are measured with respect to the rigid body configuration, obtained from its rigid body inverse kinematics. As a result, a linear time-varying system is obtained. The inverse dynamics problem consists of determination of joint torques for a given tip trajectory such that joint angles in the flexible configuration are equal to the angles in the rigid body configuration. The manipulator control system consists of the feedforward compensation and feedback control loops. Simulation results of a two-link space crane with a large payload show that the performance of this linearized dynamics and control approach is accurate, and at the same time is robust when subjected to parameter variations during slew operations.
