This paper presents a method to design an adaptive controller for the kinematic model of a two-wheeled welding mobile robot (WMR) with unknown parameters. We propose a nonlinear controller based on the Lyapunov function to enhance the tracking properties of the WMR. The WMR can track any smooth curved welding path at a constant velocity of the welding point. The system has three degrees of freedom including two wheels and one torch slider. Torch slider motion is used for fast tracking. To design the tracking performance, the errors from WMR to steel wall is defined, and the controller is designed to drive the errors to zero as fast as possible. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is shown through simulation results.

The mobile robot controller is designed to track the target and to maintain the formation at the same time. Formation control is included in mobile robot controller by extending the trajectory tracking algorithm. The dynamic model of mobile robot is used with kinematic model considering the practical physical parameters of mobile robot. The dynamic model of mobile robot transforms velocity control input of kinematic model into torque control input which is the practical control input of mobile robot. Formation controller of mobile robot is designed to satisfy Lyapunov stability by backstepping method. The designed formation controller is applied to the mobile robot for various target movements and simulated to confirm the Lyapunov stability.

In this paper, the control algorithm fur an autonomous vehicle is studied and applied to an actual 2 wheel-driven vehicle system. In order to control a nonholonomic system, the kinematic model for an autonomous vehicle is constructed by relative velocity relationship about the virtual point at distance from the vehicle's frame. And the optimal controller that based on the kinematic model is operated on purpose to track a reference vehicle's path. The actual system is designed with named 'HYAVI' and the system controller is applied. Because all the results of simulation don't satisfy the driving conditions of HYAVI, a reformed control algorithm that satisfies an actual autonomous vehicle is applied at HYAVI. At the results of actual experiments, the path tracking works very well by the reformed control algorithm. An autonomous vehicle that applied this control algorithm can be easily used for a path generation algorithm.

To apply the real-time kinematic GPS surveying technique, this research has tried to obtain the TOKYO datum first from the continuous reference stations distributed all over the country. Then, analysis of the geography of a coastal area including both of land and sea has been carried out by the post-processed continuous kinematic GPS technique and the real-time kinematic GPS surveying technique. After considering the initial conditions and measuring time zone for real-time kinematic GPS, post-processed and the real-time kinematic GPS measurements have been carried out. A new system has been proposed to store measured data by using a program developed to store GPS data in real time and to monitor the satellite condition through controller simultaneously. The accuracy of GPS data acquired in real time was as good as that acquired by post processing. It is expected that it will be useful for the analysis of coastal geographic characteristics because DTM can be also constructed for the harbor reclamation, the dredging and the variation of soil movement in a river.

A numerical model and a controller of Active Front wheel Steer (AFS) system are designed in this study. The AFS model consists of four sub models, and the AFS controller uses sliding mode control and PID control methods. To test this model and controller an Integrated Dynamics Control with Steering (IDCS) system is also designed. The IDCS system integrates an AFS system and an ARS (Active Rear wheel Steering) system. The AFS controller and IDCS controller are compared under several driving and road conditions. An 8 degree of freedom vehicle model is also employed to test the controllers. The results show that the model of AFS system shows good kinematic steering assistance function. Steering ratio varies depends on vehicle velocity between 12 and 24. Kinematic stabilization function also shows good performance because yaw rate of AFS vehicle tracks the reference yaw rate. IDCS shows improved responses compared to AFS because body side slip angle is also reduced. This result also proves that AFS system shows satisfactory result when it is integrated with another chassis system. On a split-m road, two controllers forced the vehicle to proceed straight ahead.

In this study, kinematic analysis of forward kinematic, inverse kinematic and jacobian for 6-bar parallel robot was analyzed. In order to analyze the maximum workspace of 6-bar parallel robot, maximum revolution range of active joint was calculated. Also, to analyze forward dynamics and inverse dynamics of 6-bar parallel robot, recurdyn and simmechanics was utilized. Using a PI controller and Feedforward controller make an experiment with square motion of end_effector. The reference value of active joint and trace of end_effector were compared with actual experimental value.

This paper proposes a controller design for an omnidirectional mobile platform (OMP) with three wheels using backstepping control. A kinematic model and dynamic model of the system are presented. Based on the dynamic modeling, a backstepping controller is designed to stabilize the OMP when following a desired path. The controller is designed based on a backstepping control theory. It includes two steps: first, a virtual state and a stability function are introduced. Second, Lyapunov functions for the system are chosen and an equation for the virtual control that makes the system stabile is obtained. The system stability is guaranteed by the Lyapunov stability theory. The simulation and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

For a high resolution real-time kinematic GPS surveying using carrier phase, positioning accuracy according to the OTF initialization was better than 1 cm with more than 5-minute initialization within 20 km baseline. Also, it is recommended that measurements be carried out when PDOP and RDOP can be kept less than 4.0 since the geometrical layout of satellites has a great influence on the positioning accuracy. After considering the initial conditions and measuring time zone for real-time kinematic GPS. post-processed continuous kinematic GPS and real-time kinematic GPS measurements have been carried out. A new system has been proposed to store measured data by using a program developed to store GPS data in real time and to monitor the satellite condition through controller at the time of measurement. As a result, it has been revealed that possible noise in surveying could be corrected and the accuracy could be improved.

A sliding mode control of spacecraft attitude tracking with actuator, especially reaction wheel, is presented. The sliding mode controller is derived based on quaternion parameterization for the kinematic equations of motion. The reaction wheel dynamic equations represented by wheel input voltage are presented. The input voltage to wheel is calculated from the sliding mode controller and reaction wheel dynamics. The global asymptotic stability is shown using a Lyapunov analysis. In addition the robustness analysis is performed for nonlinear system with parameter variations and disturbances. It is shown that the controller ensures control objectives for the spacecraft with reaction wheels.
