An adaptive nonlinear control law that incorporates the manipulator dynamics as well as dynamics of the actuator is developed in this article. The technique is based on nonlinear feedback linearization. The electrical parameters of the actuator are considered to be of uncertain values. In contrast to known methods the robot position is the only measurement available, a nonlinear observer is des...

Different characterization approaches, including nonlinear dynamics (NLD), have been addressed for the automatic detection of PD; however, the obtained discrimination capability when only NLD features are considered has not been evaluated yet. This paper evaluates the discrimination capability of a set with ten different NLD features in the task of automatic classification of speech signals fro...

Control Systems such as Anti Lock Brake Systems (ABS) and Traction Control Systems (TCS) are vastly used in most vehicles as to enhance the safety of the systems. These systems have many virtues on controlling the dynamics of vehicles, but they only control the longitudinal dynamics of the vehicle directly and the lateral dynamics of vehicle is not controlled because they do not receive any fee...
