The main goal of this book is to prove analytically and validate experimentally that
synchronization in multi-composed mechanical systems can be achieved in the case of …

In this paper, we propose a new robust output feedback control approach for flexible-joint
electrically driven (FJED) robots via the observer dynamic surface design technique. The …

Synchronisation/cooperation between manipulators is a specified emerging application in
the field of robotics. However, most of the synchronisation works are reported using rigid …

In this paper, we propose a decentralized robust control algorithm for modular and
reconfigurable robots (MRRs) based on Lyapunov's stability analysis and backstepping …

In this study, the authors propose an adaptive output-feedback controller for trajectory
tracking of electrically driven non-holonomic mobile robots in the presence of parametric …

The accurate tracking of tool-paths on five-axis CNC machine tools is essential in achieving
high speed machining of dies, molds, and aerospace parts with sculptured surfaces …

This paper presents a continuous time sliding mode controller (SMC) design to deal with the
problem of motion synchronization in dual spindle servo systems. Synchronization error is …

In this paper, a synchronisation strategy between a controlled master and three-slave two-
link flexible manipulators is proposed. Two out of the three slaves are identical with the …

In order to attain higher manufacturing efficiency, linear motor driven gantry type of machine
tool design is favored as opposed to conventional rotary motor ball-screw combination. The …

A new output feedback controller design approach for flexible-joint (FJ) robots via the
observer dynamic surface design technique is presented. The proposed approach only …
