Optimal Control of Variable Stiffness Actuators with Nonlinear Springs
Variable Stiffness Actuators (VSA) are currently being regarded as promising actuator types in robotics research especially due to their capability to store potential energy in their elastic elements and to control this energy by altering the elastic properties of these elements. The controllable potential energy enables these actuators to outperform their rigid counterparts especially when rea...
متن کاملVariable Stiffness Actuators for Fast and Safe Motion Control
In this paper we propose Variable Stiffness actuation [1] as a viable mechanical/control co–design approach for guaranteeing control performance for robot arms that are inherently safe to humans in their environment. A new actuator under development in our Lab is then proposed, which incorporate the possibility to vary transmission stiffness during motion execution, thus allowing substantial mo...
متن کاملNonlinear Adaptive Control for Electromagnetic Actuators
The authors study here the problem of adaptive ”soft-landing” control for electromagnetic actuators. The soft landing requires accurate control of the actuator’s moving element between two desired positions. They propose a non-linear adaptive controller to solve the problem of robust trajectory tracking for the moving element, when considering model uncertainties with linear parametrisation. Th...

متن کاملInvestigation of Utilizing a Secant Stiffness Matrix for 2D Nonlinear Shape Optimization and Sensitivity Analysis
In this article the general non-symmetric parametric form of the incremental secant stiffness matrix for nonlinear analysis of solids have been investigated to present a semi analytical sensitivity analysis approach for geometric nonlinear shape optimization. To approach this aim the analytical formulas of secant stiffness matrix are presented. The models were validated and used to perform inve...
