Friction‐Aware Force‐Realizable Safety Control for Four‐Wheel Independently Steered and Driven Mobile Robots

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Safety‐critical control remains a major challenge for four‐wheel independently steered and driven (4ISD) mobile robots, where high‐accuracy path tracking and obstacle avoidance must be achieved under over‐actuated steering–driving coordination, tire–ground friction limits, and wheel‐torque constraints.

Sliding Mode Control and Observation for Upper Limb Robotics Rehabilitation

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stroke is a leading cause of upper limb motor impairments, which often require rehabilitation. General purpose robotic manipulators enable effective therapy through exercises such as Center Out Point‐to‐Point (CO‐PTP) and Teach‐and‐Track (TT), which respectively demand accurate estimation and rejection of the interaction force exerted by the ...

Impulsive Thruster Control for Spacecraft Docking: A Lyapunov Approach

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this work, we propose a novel discontinuous impulsive controller for nonlinear systems that admit continuous‐time stabilizing controllers. Specifically, we develop a technique for generating discrete control pulses of short duration based on the Lyapunov candidate function associated with a continuous‐time controller. Our method uses a real‐

Deadbeat Robust Model Predictive Control for Linear Parameter‐Varying Systems

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The concept of Deadbeat Robust Model Predictive Control (DRMPC) has recently been established for linear systems, providing full system theoretic guarantees, while reducing the computational and conceptual complexity. This article extends DRMPC to systems with multiplicative uncertainty (“robust linear”) and systems that depend on a (slowly ...

Vibration Analysis of Laminated Composite Beam with Magnetostrictive Layers Flexibly Restrained at the Ends

Mathematics
The dynamic model and nonlinear forced vibration of a laminated beam with magnetostrictive layers, embedded on a nonlinear elastic Winkler–Pasternak foundation, in the presence of an electromagnetic actuator, mechanical impact, dry friction, a ...

The role of identification in data‐driven policy iteration: A system theoretic study

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
Abstract The goal of this article is to study fundamental mechanisms behind so‐called indirect and direct data‐driven control for unknown systems. Specifically, we consider policy iteration applied to the linear quadratic regulator problem. Two iterative procedures, where data collected from the system are repeatedly used to compute new estimates of ...

Time-Varying LQR Control with Matrix Smoothing for Continuous-Time Switched Systems Under Time-Dependent Switching

Applied Sciences
This paper addresses the analysis and control of continuous-time linear switched systems within the linear time-varying (LTV) framework. A correspondence between switched and LTV system representations is first established, enabling the use of LTV tools ...

Formation Control With Obstacle Avoidance of Underwater Swarms Based on Relative Visual Feedback

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater multi‐robot and swarm systems require advanced methodologies for controlling collective behavior. Conventional single‐robot techniques, such as tethering, sonar imaging, and acoustic localization, are not scalable or effective for swarm applications.

Stability and the matrix Lyapunov equation for differential systems with point, distributed and/or mixed point-distributed delays

Informatica, 1994
The paper establishes sufficient conditions for the stability of linear and time-invariant delay differential systems. A special attention is paid to different delay classes as point, distributed and point-distributed. Sufficient conditions for the stability are obtained in terms of Schur's complement of operators and the frequency domain Lyapunov ...
