Dynamic arc fitting path follower for skid-steered mobile robots
Peter Lepej, Johannes Maurer, Suzana Uran, Gerald Steinbauer, 2015, original scientific article

Abstract: Many applications, such as surveillance, inspection or search and rescue operations, can be performed with autonomous robots. Our aim is a control of modular autonomous systems in rescue robotics. One of the basic problems with autonomous robotics is the execution part where the control commands (translation and rotational velocities) are produced for mobile bases. Therefore we have focused on this area because there is only a small amount of available path following software for skid-steered mobile robots. Our goal was to develop a velocity controller that could be used for multiple skid-steered mobile bases. We considered differential drive mobile bases such as tracked skid-steering mobile bases. Our approach is based on an arc fitting algorithm, which takes into account the robot constraints and kinematical model. It produces a continuous trajectory where fitting to the given path is adapted based on given parameters. Moreover, we have included orientation angle compensation while the mobile robot is moving and ground inclination compensation. Our rescue robot is described, together with the simulation setup and algorithm implementation. We compared our algorithm to the Hector-based software and curvature velocity approach. The results for the proposed algorithm are shown for the simulation results and the experiment.

Design of Lyapunov based nonlinear velocity control of electrohydraulic velocity servo systems
Edvard Detiček, Nenad Gubeljak, Mitja Kastrevc, 2017, original scientific article

Abstract: Development of a hydraulically driven process of steel centrifugal die casting industry requires accurate response of position in time. In the frame of preliminary investigations the analysis and control of electrohydraulic velocity servo system is considered in the presence of flow nonlinearities and internal friction. The nonlinear and uncertainty characteristics make the conventional controller not yield to the system high requirements. Two different nonlinear design procedures are employed: feedback linearization and backstepping. It is shown that both these techniques can be successfully used to stabilize any chosen operating point of the system. Additionally, invaluable new insights are gained about the dynamics of the system under consideration. This illustrates that the true potential of constructive nonlinear design lies far beyond the mere task of achieving a desired control objective. All derived results are validated by computer simulation of the nonlinear mathematical model of the system.
Keywords: computer simulation, electro-hydraulic velocity servo system, integrator backstepping, Lyapunov methods, velocity control
