Hexapod robot locomotion is analyzed. Trajectory forming method for one leg is introduced. Servo angles are expressed using geometric inverse kinematics method. Forming of tripod gait is described and a diagram representing it is presented. Servo control parameters are defined to ensure fluent and versatile robot control. Several servo control methods are presented.

This article presents an in-situ comparative analysis and power quality tests of a newly developed photovoltaic charging system for e-bikes. The various control methods of the inverter are modeled and a single-phase grid-connected inverter is tested under different conditions. Models are constituted for two current control methods; the proportional resonance and the synchronous rotating frames. In order to determine the influence of the control parameters, the system is analyzed analytically in the time domain as well as in the frequency domain by simulation. The tests indicated the resonance instability of the photovoltaic inverter. The passivity impedance-based stability criterion is applied in order to analyze the phenomenon of resonance instability. In conclusion, the phase-locked loop (PLL) bandwidth and control parameters of the current loop have a major effect on the output admittance of the inverter, which should be adjusted to make the system stable.

SUMMARYIn this study, modelling and control of a two-link robot manipulator whose first link is rigid and the second one is flexible is considered for both land and underwater conditions. Governing equations of the systems are derived from Hamilton's Principle and differential eigenvalue problem. A computer program is developed to solve non-linear ordinary differential equations defining the system dynamics by using Runge–Kutta algorithm. The response of the system is evaluated and compared by applying classical control methods; proportional control and proportional + derivative (PD) control and an intelligent technique; integral augmented fuzzy control method. Modelling of drag torques applied to the manipulators moving horizontally under the water is presented. The study confirmed the success of the proposed integral augmented fuzzy control laws as well as classical control methods to drive flexible robots in a wide range of working envelope without overshoot compared to the classical controls.

Bionics has greatly improved the development of quadruped robot, in the paper we propose three bionic methods for the quadruped robot. These methods have been used for control method design, gait design and control architecture design. The quadruped robot control method has been divided into two parts, because the four-legged animals change their trot speed by adjustment of step length in swing phase and maintain their balance in support phase; control architecture is derived from the four-legged animals nerve system; gait of quadruped robot is based on event driven, and its trot gait is the same as German shepherd. Simulations and experiments are performed, which prove bionics design to be realizable for the quadruped robot.

The frequence and complex of space exploration activeities makes the life of the spacecraft and on-orbit service technologies becoming research hotspot in recent years. But the limitation of non-renewable fuels makes exploration mission costly and maintenance difficult, so the free floating space robot has its unique advantages. Because the research level and control technology is not maturity, study on the free floating space robot control method is the key theory and technology which is the difficulty that our country now needs to overcome, also, the research is of great theoretical and practical significance. This paper introduct an experiment scara mechanical arm based on the free floating space robot project. Main research contents of this paper include the mechanical structure design, and combining with the characteristic of the free floating mechanical arm , it makes kinematics and dynamics modals of the mechanical arm system, additional, it conduct statics test and dynamic modal analysis, which is to make sure that the mechanical arm could satisfy needs and to study its dynamic characteristics.This topic focus on structure design and mathematical modeling of the mechanical arm, it makes the research of control method and trajectory planning no longer stay on the paper, and makes the research more authenticity and accuracy.

When designing a vehicle, the most important variable that should be taken into account is the vehicle yaw rate, it represents an important indication of the vehicle’s stability and control. This paper aims to demonstrate how to simulate and control the yaw rate of a vehicle using two control methods, the first is the Linear Quadratic control method (LQR) and the other one is neural network control. The classical single-track model is prominently used for yaw stability control analysis. One driving conditions performed is the steering input; the steering input in this work is set as step steering angle and a lane change manoeuvre. Simulation results showed that both control methods used produced good and convergent performance results for the vehicle under different driving conditions.

A method is proposed to solve the inverse kinematics and control problems of robot control systems using a cerebellar model articulation controller neural network combined with a genetic algorithm. Computer simulations and experiments with a 7-DOF redundant modular manipulator have demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Based on the stability and orthogonal polynomial approximation theory, the ordinary, dislocated, enhancing, and random feedback control methods are used to suppress the Neimark-Sacker bifurcation to fixed point in this paper. It is shown that the convergence rate of enhancing feedback control and random feedback control can be faster than those of dislocated and ordinary feedback control. The random feedback control method, which does not require any adjustable control parameters of the model, just only slightly changes the random intensity. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed controllers.

This paper presents a detailed dynamic modeling of phantom ax12 six-legged robot using Matlab SimMechanics™. The direct and inverse kinematic analysis for each leg has been considered in order to develop an overall kinematic model of the robot. Trajectory of each leg is also considered for both swing and support phases when the robot walks with tripod gait in a straight path. Newton-Euler formulation has been utilized to determine the joint’s torque. These results were verified using SimMechanics™. Also, feet force distributions of the hexpaod are estimated via SimMechanics™, which is necessary for its control.
