Adaptive neural network vibration suppression control of flexible joints space manipulator based on H∞ theory

Abstract

Considering the control problems caused by uncertainties such as inaccurate modeling, external disturbance and joint flexibility, a neural network control method based on H∞ is proposed. By establishing the dynamic model of the free-floating space robot with flexible joints, according to its dynamic characteristics, it is split into a slow subsystem model representing the rigid characteristics and a fast subsystem model representing the flexible characteristics. Based on the H∞ robust control theory, a robust controller based on neural network is designed to realize the decoupling control of the rigid dynamic model, The designed weight adaptive learning rate can ensure the online and real-time adjustment of parameters. Based on Lyapunov theory, it is proved that the designed controller can ensure that the L2 gain of the system is less than the given index. A feedback controller based on velocity differential is designed to compensate the angle error caused by joint flexibility. The experimental simulation results verify that the proposed control method is effective and has good engineering application value.

Opportunities and Challenges of Generative AI in Construction Industry: Focusing on Adoption of Text-Based Models

“…Current methods, including mathematics, and machine learning, have limitations in adapting to dynamic construction settings. To address this, a recent study introduced RoboGPT, leveraging ChatGPT's advanced reasoning for automated sequence planning in robot-based construction assembly [120]. One of the major challenges in flexible behavior of robot in complex construction setting lies on interpretation of operational knowledge, which is translating human natural language into robot interpretable format.…”
