Abstract: Redundantly actuated parallel manipulators with two rotations and one translation (2R1T RAPMs) have the potential for machining complex surfaces, where a large orientation workspace and high stiffness are required. Considering ...

Abstract: Variational integrators play a pivotal role in the simulation and control of constrained mechanical systems. Current Lagrange multiplier-free variational integrators for such systems are concise but inevitably face issues ...

Abstract: This work develops a computationally efficient stability analysis method for the neutral delay differential systems. This method can be also conveniently applied for the optimal parameter tuning of related control systems. ...

Abstract: In this work, a time-optimal trajectory generation approach is developed for the multiple way-point navigation of the quadrotor based on the nonuniform rational B-spline (NURBS) curve and linear programming. To facilitate ...

Abstract: This paper presents an accurate and computationally efficient timedomain design method for the proportional–integral–derivative (PID) control of firstorder and secondorder plants in the presence of discrete time delays. ...

Abstract: This paper presents an accurate and computationally efficient time-domain design method for the stability region determination and optimal parameter tuning of delayed feedback control of a flying robot carrying a suspended ...

Abstract: In machining processes, regenerative chatter is an unstable vibration which adversely affects surface finish, cutting tools, and spindle bearings. Under some cutting conditions, the beat effect, an interference pattern ...
