    The Effects of Admittance Term on Back-Drivability
    (Springer, 2018) Işıtman, Oğulcan; Ayit, Orhan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    In the design of kinesthetic haptic devices, there are mainly impedance type and admittance type device. In a customary scenario, the human operator back-drives the haptic device by holding and providing motion to the handle of the haptic device. If the type of transmission system does not allow passive back-drivability, then the back-drivability is satisfied by the use of an admittance controller. This type of a haptic device is said to have admittance structure. The selection of the admittance term in this controller plays a critical part in the task execution performance. Determination of this term is not trivial and the optimal parameters depend on not only the key performance criteria but also on the human operator. An experimental study is carried out in this work to determine the effect of the admittance term parameters on the performance of human operators in terms of the energy efficiency and the best accuracy. In this paper, the experimental set-up and the results of the experiments are presented and discussed.

    On the Formulation of Parallel Position/Force Control Schemes for Industrial Manipulators
    (Shaker Verlag, 2012) Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Özgören, M. Kemal
    In this paper, three commonly-used position/force control schemes namely Impedance, Admittance and Hybrid Position/Force control are investigated for use in industrial manipulators. In order to eliminate the instability problem that may occur in the customary versions of these schemes for large position errors, a modification is proposed, which is based on determining the joint-space position errors using inverse kinematic solutions rather than using the inverse Jacobian matrix. The feasibility of this modification relies on the fact that almost all of the industrial manipulators have easily obtainable inverse kinematic solutions. The simulation results showing the performance of the modified control schemes are also presented as applied on a Puma 560 manipulator.
