A novel integral sliding mode control (ISMC) strategy combined with an adaptive super
twisting observer (ASTO) for an uncertain robotic manipulator tracking control system is …

This paper proposes a fuzzy proportion integration differentiation (PID) control strategy
based on an adaptive whale optimization algorithm (FPID-AWOA) for trajectory tracking of a …

Many applications require mechanical systems to meet several performance specifications,
achieved through the suitable design of their mechanisms and controllers. The mechanical …

This article proposes a Stackelberg game-theoretic optimization approach for adaptive
robust controller design of fuzzy underactuated mechanical systems (UMSs). As a commonly …

The unknown and time-varying model parameters and measurement noises impose great
influence on the high-precision synchronization tracking control performance of multiaxis …

A confined space is an area in an industrial facility that has limited access and allows only
restricted movement due to physical constraints. Confined spaces often require special …

This article investigates the robust control problem of affine nonlinear systems with both
additive and multiplicative uncertainty. Different from existing actor-critic (AC) algorithms for …

For servo mechanical systems, it is typically desirable to consider a series of equality and
inequality constraints in the control analysis. While constraint-following control strategies …

This paper proposes a novel model-free controller, considering the overhead crane systems
cannot be accurately modeled and affected by external disturbances. The suggested …

Controller tuning and optimization have been among the most fundamental problems in
robotics and mechatronic systems. The traditional methodology is usually model-based, but …
