Via several cases of study it is shown that a passive multivariable linear control system, contrary to its single input single output counterpart, may not be robust. Moreover, it is shown that lack of robustness can be exposed via the multivariable structure function.

This paper deals with the special replacement of the shift operator and its associated z transform by delta operator and ? transform, respectively. The aim of the paper is to clarify the role of zeros of discretized linear single input single output continuous-time systems modeled by shift and delta operators. In particular, the effect of zero dynamics on the control system design based on classical pole-zero assignment in the case of both operators is considered. The analysis is illustrated by simulation results.

We study single-input single-output (SISO) control systems with the rapid piecewise-smooth parameters disturbances. The system dynamics are described by switched system models. The system output is regulated with the help of the nonlinear astatic controller with parameters which depend on some disturbance properties. The system stability is studied by second Lyapunov method.

A manipulator control system, for which isotropic compliance holds in the Euclidean space E(3), can be significantly simplified by means of diagonal decoupling. However, such simplification may introduce some limits to the region of the workspace where the sought property can be achieved. The present investigation reveals how to detect which peculiar subset, among four different classes, a given manipulator belongs to. The paper also introduces the concept of control gain ratio for each specific single-input/single-output joint control law in order to limit the maximum gain required to achieve the isotropic compliance condition.

Abstract Soft robots driven by pressurized fluid have recently been attracted more attention and achieved a variety of innovative applications in bionics, medical surgery, rehabilitation, search, and rescue system. And they have been demonstrated to be able to perform many different tasks, especially in some conditions of demand a high degree of compliance. Generally, they consisted of multiple actuate channels that require independent works. Consequently, a mass of pressure regulators and input pipelines are demanded, which will increase the complexity of the control system. To solve this problem, we propose a new pressure control method inspired by the control bus of electronic interface technology in this paper. An addressable pressure control bus system based on band-pass valve (BPV) and square wave of pressure (control signal) was designed. It consisted of a pressure supply source and an addressing signal, they are controled by two regulators, respectively. One of the pressure pipelines serves as the control bus to transmit the control pressure signal, which plays an addressing signal role in the system. The other serves as the pressure supply source of the multi-channel actuators. The BPV can be set to different opening pressure bands to realize the setting of diverse outputs address codes on the bus. This method discovered the work mode of double-input multi-output, which will get rids of the traditional control method of single-input single-output. In this paper, we designed the BPV and tested its function. To demonstrate the feasibility of this method proposed, a control system with two output ports was established. The result has shown that the output port can be selected by the pressure square wave signal, which realizes the function of single input multiple outputs. It reduces the complexity of the control strategy of the fluid control system.

The Brain

A human wearing an exoskeleton-type assistive device results in a parallel control system that includes two controllers: the human brain and a digital exoskeleton controller. Unknown and complicated characteristics of the brain dynamically interact with the exoskeleton controller which makes the controller design challenging. In this paper, the motion control system of a human is regarded as a feedback control loop that consists of a brain, muscles and the dynamics of the extended human body. The brain is modeled as a control algorithm amplified by a fictitious variable gain. The variable gain compensates for characteristic changes in the muscle and dynamics. If a human is physically impaired or subjected to demanding work, the exoskeleton should generate proper assistive forces, which is equivalent to increasing the variable gain. In this paper, a control algorithm that realizes the fictitious variable gain is designed and its performance and robustness are discussed for single-input single-output cases. The control algorithm is then verified by simulation results.
