Enhanced Polynomial Chaos-Based Extended Kalman Filter Technique for Parameter Estimation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The generalized polynomial chaos (gPC) mathematical technique, when integrated with the extended Kalman filter (EKF) method, provides a parameter estimation and state tracking method. The truncation of the series expansions ...
Experimental Implementation of Opposed Shape Memory Alloy Wires for Actuator Control
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are capable linear actuators. This research demonstrates the capabilities of SMA wires for the control of a pivot actuator. The wires impart opposing forces to control the motion of the pivot, ...
