Motivated by the dynamic output feedback passification results, point-to-point control laws for an elastic joint robot are presented when only the position measurements are available. The proposed method makes a parallel connection of the robot system and an input-dimensional linear system which obtains the effect of the desired differentiators. It is shown that the closed-loop nonlinear robot system can be rendered output strictly passive and the regulation of the system is achieved in the end. Robustness analysis is also given with regard to uncertainties on the robot parameters. Performance of the proposed control law is illustrated in the simulation studies of a manipulator with three revolute elastic joints.

This paper presents a new PID controller for a DC/DC boost converter model that has a parasitic inductor resistance. In order to maintain the robust output regulation property under load variations the proposed controller is designed by using an additional state variable developed via a parallel-damped passivity-based control approach. Simulation results using Matlab/Simulink SimPowerSystems compare the performances of the proposed controller with a conventional PI controller for reference step changes and load uncertainties.

Twin-servo mechanism is used to increase the payload capacity and speed of high precision motion control system. In this paper, we propose a robust synchronizing motion control algorithm to cancel out the skew motion of twin-servo system caused by different dynamic characteristics of two driving systems and the vibration generated by high accelerating and decelerating motions. This proposed control algorithm consists of separate feedback motion control algorithm of each driving system and skew motion compensation algorithm between two systems. Robust model reference tracking controller is proposed as a separate motion controller and its disturbance attenuation property is shown. For the synchronizing motion, skew motion compensation algorithm is designed, and the stability of whole Closed loop system is proved based on passivity theory.

In this paper, a generalized adaptive law is proposed which uses a rational function type operator for parameter adjustment. To satisfy the passivity condition of the adaptation block, we introduce a constant feedback gain into the adaptation block. This adaptation scheme is applied to the model reference adaptive control of a continuous-time, linear time-invariant, minimum-phase system whose relative degree is 1. We prove the asymptotic stability of the output error of this adaptive system by hyperstability method. It is shown that by digital computer simulations this law can give a better output error transient response in some cases than the conventional gradient adaptive law. And the output error responses for the several types of the proposed adaptation law are examined in the presence of a kind of unmodeled dynamics.

In this paper, we present a robust adaptive backstepping output feedback controller for nonlinear systems perturbed by unmodelled dynamics and disturbances. Especially, backstepping technique with modular approach is used to separately design controller and identifier. The design of identifier is based on the observer-based scheme which possesses a strict passivity property of observer error system. We will use Switching-${\sigma}$ modification at the update law and the modified control law to attenuate the effects of undodelled dynamics and disturbances for nonlinear systems.

A new impedance controller is proposed for bilateral teleoperation under a time delay. The proposed controller does not need to measure or estimate the time delay in the communication channel using the force loop-back. In designing a stable impedance controller, absolute stability is used as a stability analysis tool, which results in a less conservative controller than the passivity concept. Moreover, in order to remove the conservatism associated with the assumption of infinite port impedances, the boundaries of human and environment impedance are set to finite values. Based on this, this paper proposes a parameter design procedure for stable impedance controllers. The validity of the proposed control scheme is demonstrated by experiments with a 1-dof master/slave system.

Since its introduction (e.g., [4, 6]), virtual coupling technique has been de facto way to connect a haptic device with a virtual proxy for haptic rendering and control. However, because of the single dependence on spring-damper feedback action, this virtual coupling suffers from the degraded transparency particularly during contact tasks when large device/proxy-forces are involved. In this paper, we propose a novel virtual coupling technique, which, by utilizing passive decomposition, reduces device-proxy position deviation even during the contact tasks while also scaling down (or up) the apparent inertia of the coordinated device-proxy. By doing so, we can significantly improve transparency between multiple degree of freedom (possibly nonlinear) haptic device and virtual proxy. In other to use passive decomposition, disturbance observer of [3] is adopted to estimate human force with some dead-zone modification to avoid "winding-up" force estimation in the presence of device torque saturation. Some preliminary experimental results are also given to illustrate efficacy of the proposed technique.
