Abstract:Pneumatic actuators possess several attractive qualities: high power and force density, potentially adaptable compliance, and clean, safe, and low cost actuation. However, control of pneumatic actuators has proven difficult, limited by inherent compliance of the actuator, nonlinear and discontinuous third order dynamics, and friction. Stiction and compliance lead to a sandwiched nonlinearity that causes stick-slip and can cause significant tracking error and even instability. A broadly applicable method of fri… Show more
“…In [23] controller design while avoiding the symbolic function of defects, but also at the expense of the asymptotic stability of the system; [31] the arctangent function used in the design of the controller, but also can achieve the bounded convergence. The control goal is to find the appropriate controller and the system (12) is the global asymptotic stability.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
