This study presents mechatronic design, dynamic modeling, simulations and real-time control experiments of a new movable scaffolding system. The proposed system consists of a 3 degrees-of-freedom movable platform, which can be positioned on…
This paper proposes a global iterative sliding mode control approach for high-precision contouring tasks of a flexure-linked biaxial gantry system. For such high-precision contouring tasks, it is the typical situation that the involved…
This paper considers the problem of manipulating a uniformly rotating chain: the chain is rotated at a constant angular speed around a fixed axis using a robotic manipulator. Manipulation is quasi-static in the sense that transitions are…
Interventional Radiology (IR) enables earlier diagnosis and less invasive treatment of numerous ailments. Here we present our ongoing development of CRANE: CT RoboticArm and Needle Emplacer, a robotic needle positioning system for CT guided…
The paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of a 2D overhead crane with input delays in the boundary control. A linear boundary control is proposed. The main feature of such a control lies in the facts that it solely depends on the…
To reduce the chattering and overestimation phenomena existing in classical adaptive sliding mode control, this paper presents a new class K_infinity function-based adaptive sliding mode control scheme. Two controllers are proposed in terms…

Transporting objects using aerial robots has been widely studied in the literature. Still, those approaches always assume that the connection between the quadrotor and the load is made in a previous stage. However, that previous stage…
Flexible robots may overcome some of the industry's major challenges, such as enabling intrinsically safe human-robot collaboration and achieving a higher payload-to-mass ratio. However, controlling flexible robots is complicated due to…
Longitudinal oscillations of bunched beams in synchrotrons have been analyzed by accelerator physicists for decades, and a closed theory is well-known [1]. The first modes of oscillation are the coherent dipole mode, quadrupole mode, and…
