This paper concerns the problem of dynamic parameter identification of robot manipulators and proposes a closed-loop identification procedure using modified Fourier series (MFS) as exciting trajectories. First, a static continuous friction model is involved to model joint friction for realizable friction compensation in controller design. Second, MFS satisfying the boundary conditions are firstly designed as periodic exciting trajectories. To minimize the sensitivity to measurement noise, the coefficients of MFS are optimized according to the condition number criterion. Moreover, to obtain accurate parameter estimates, the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method considering the influence of measurement noise is adopted. The proposed identification procedure has been implemented on the first three axes of the QIANJIANG-I 6-DOF robot manipulator. Experiment results verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach, and comparison between identification using MFS and that using finite Fourier series (FFS) reveals that the proposed method achieves better identification accuracy.

The clearance of the revolute joint influences the accuracy of dynamic parameter identification. In order to address this problem, a method for dynamic parameter identification of an X–Y pointing mechanism while considering the clearance of the revolute joint is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the nonlinear dynamic model of the pointing mechanism was established based on a modified contact model, which took the effect of the asperity of contact surface on joint clearance into consideration. Secondly, with the aim of achieving the anti-interference incentive trajectory, the trajectory was optimized according to the condition number of the observation matrix and the driving functions of activate joints that could be obtained. Thirdly, dynamic simulation was conducted through Adams software, and clearance was involved in the simulation model. Finally, the dynamic parameter identification of the pointing mechanism was conducted based on an artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm. The identification result that considered joint clearance was compared with that which did not consider joint clearance. The results showed that the accuracy of the dynamic parameter identification was improved when the clearance was taken into consideration. This study provides a theoretical basis for the improvement of dynamic parameter identification accuracy.

The lower extremity exoskeleton is a device for auxiliary assistance of human movement. The interaction performance between the exoskeleton and the human is determined by the lower extremity exoskeleton’s controller. The performance of the controller is affected by the accuracy of the dynamic equation. Therefore, it is necessary to study the dynamic parameter identification of lower extremity exoskeleton. The existing dynamic parameter identification algorithms for lower extremity exoskeletons are generally based on Least Square (LS). There are some internal drawbacks, such as complicated experimental processes and low identification accuracy. A dynamic parameter identification algorithm based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) with search space defined by Recursive Least Square (RLS) is developed in this investigation. The developed algorithm is named RLS-PSO. By defining the search space of PSO, RLS-PSO not only avoids the convergence of identified parameters to the local minima, but also improves the identification accuracy of exoskeleton dynamic parameters. Under the same experimental conditions, the identification accuracy of RLS-PSO, PSO and LS was quantitatively compared and analyzed. The results demonstrated that the identification accuracy of RLS-PSO is higher than that of LS and PSO.

Considering the joint elasticity, a novel dynamic parameter identification method is proposed for general industrial robots only with motor encoders. Firstly, the unknown parameters of the elastic joint dynamic model are analyzed and divided into two types. The first type is the motion-independent parameter only including the joint stiffness, which can be identified by the static force/torque-deformation experiments without the dynamic model. The second type is the motion-dependent parameter composed of the rest of the parameters, which needs the dynamic excitation experiments. Therefore, these two types of parameters can be identified separately. Meanwhile, it is found that the rotor inertia parameters can be obtained from the manufacturer, which reduces the identification difficulty of other parameters. After obtaining the rotor inertia and joint stiffness, an approximate processing algorithm is proposed considering the motor friction to establish the linear identification model of other parameters. Hence, the least squares can be employed to identify the parameters, and the independence of the inertia and joint viscous friction parameters are not affected. Meanwhile, the exciting trajectories can be optimized throughout the robot workspace, which reduces the effect of measurement noise on identification accuracy. With the proposed separated identification strategy and approximate processing algorithm, the dynamic parameters can be obtained precisely without double encoders on each joint. Finally, a series of simulations are conducted to evaluate the good performance of the proposed method.

With increasing size and flexibility of modern grid-connected wind turbines, advanced control algorithms are urgently needed, especially for multi-degree-of-freedom control of blade pitches and sizable rotor. However, complex dynamics of wind turbines are difficult to be modeled in a simplified state-space form for advanced control design considering stability. In this paper, grey-box parameter identification of critical mechanical models is systematically studied without excitation experiment, and applicabilities of different methods are compared from views of control design. Firstly, through mechanism analysis, the Hammerstein structure is adopted for mechanical-side modeling of wind turbines. Under closed-loop control across the whole wind speed range, structural identifiability of the drive-train model is analyzed in qualitation. Then, mutual information calculation among identified variables is used to quantitatively reveal the relationship between identification accuracy and variables’ relevance. Then, the methods such as subspace identification, recursive least square identification and optimal identification are compared for a two-mass model and tower model. At last, through the high-fidelity simulation demo of a 2 MW wind turbine in the GH Bladed software, multivariable datasets are produced for studying. The results show that the Hammerstein structure is effective for simplify the modeling process where closed-loop identification of a two-mass model without excitation experiment is feasible. Meanwhile, it is found that variables’ relevance has obvious influence on identification accuracy where mutual information is a good indicator. Higher mutual information often yields better accuracy. Additionally, three identification methods have diverse performance levels, showing their application potentials for different control design algorithms. In contrast, grey-box optimal parameter identification is the most promising for advanced control design considering stability, although its simplified representation of complex mechanical dynamics needs additional dynamic compensation which will be studied in future.
