    On Operational Space Tracking Control of Robotic Manipulators With Uncertain Dynamic and Kinematic Terms
    (American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2019) Çetin, Kamil; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroǧlu, Erkan
    In this study, a continuous robust-adaptive operational space controller that ensures asymptotic end-effector tracking, despite the uncertainties in robot dynamics and on the velocity level kinematics of the robot, is proposed. Specifically, a smooth robust controller is applied to compensate the parametric uncertainties related to the robot dynamics while an adaptive update algorithm is used to deal with the kinematic uncertainties. Rather than formulating the tracking problem in the joint space, as most of the previous works on the field have done, the controller formulation is presented in the operational space of the robot where the actual task is performed. Additionally, the robust part of the proposed controller is continuous ensuring the asymptotic tracking and relatively smooth controller effort. The stability of the overall system and boundedness of the closed loop signals are ensured via Lyapunov based arguments. Experimental results are presented to illustrate the feasibility and performance of the proposed method.

    An Extended Jacobian-Based Formulation for Operational Space Control of Kinematically Redundant Robot Manipulators With Multiple Subtask Objectives: An Adaptive Control Approach
    (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME), 2019) Çetin, Kamil; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, Erkan
    In this study, an extended Jacobian matrix formulation is proposed for the operational space tracking control of kinematically redundant robot manipulators with multiple subtask objectives. Furthermore, to compensate the structured uncertainties related to the robot dynamics, an adaptive operational space controller is designed, and then, the corresponding stability analysis is presented for kinematically redundant robot manipulators. Specifically, the proposed method is concerned with not only the stability of operational space objective but also the stability of multiple subtask objectives. The combined stability analysis of the operational space objective and the subtask objectives are obtained via Lyapunov based arguments. Experimental and simulation studies are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.

    Learning Control of Robot Manipulators in Task Space
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2018) Doğan, Kadriye Merve; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, Erkan; Çetin, Kamil
    Two important properties of industrial tasks performed by robot manipulators, namely, periodicity (i.e., repetitive nature) of the task and the need for the task to be performed by the end-effector, motivated this work. Not being able to utilize the robot manipulator dynamics due to uncertainties complicated the control design. In a seemingly novel departure from the existing works in the literature, the tracking problem is formulated in the task space and the control input torque is aimed to decrease the task space tracking error directly without making use of inverse kinematics at the position level. A repetitive learning controller is designed which “learns” the overall uncertainties in the robot manipulator dynamics. The stability of the closed-loop system and asymptotic end-effector tracking of a periodic desired trajectory are guaranteed via Lyapunov based analysis methods. Experiments performed on an in-house developed robot manipulator are presented to illustrate the performance and viability of the proposed controller.

    A Dynamic Model Free Observer Based Output Feedback Tracking Control of Robot Manipulators in Task-Space
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Çobanoğlu, Necati; Çetin, Kamil; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, Erkan
    This paper addresses the output feedback end-effector position tracking control of robotic manipulators. Specifically, via the design of a novel dynamic model independent observer constructed through a Lyapunov type analysis and under the assumption that the manipulator Jacobian is always invertible, we propose a model based nonlinear controller which ensures asymptotic robot end-effector tracking without the need of joint and/or task space velocity measurements. Simulation results are included to illustrate the performance and effectiveness of the proposed method.

    On Null-Space Control of Kinematically Redundant Robot Manipulators
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016) Çetin, Kamil; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, Erkan
    In this study, we consider the null-space control problem of redundant robot manipulators. Specifically for robot manipulators with kinematically redundancy where at least one extra degree of freedom is present, we introduce a sub-task controller that will ensure the use of the extra degrees of freedom for possible control purposes while still ensuring the main objective. The stability of the main (end-effector tracking) and sub-task objectives are obtained via Lyapunov based arguments. Extension to adaptive controller formulation for robotic devices with uncertain system dynamics is also presented. Numerical studies for the adaptive controller are presented to illustrate the liability of the proposed method.

    Online Time Delay Estimation in Networked Control Systems With Application To Bilateral Teleoperation
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Çetin, Kamil; Bayrak, Alper; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver
    The problem of forward and backward time delays is significantly important for both control and feedback loop of networked control systems. These time delays give rise to latency in performance and thereby may destabilize the system. Therefore numerous methods have been proposed about time delay identification/estimation and compensation for networked control systems, especially for bilateral teleoperation systems. However, most compensation methods have been accomplished by considering offline time delay estimation for linear/nonlinear time delay control systems. In this work, we propose an observer based estimation algorithm for round trip delay which is the sum of forward and backward time delays for a 1 degree-of-freedom nonlinear bilateral teleoperation system. Via Lyapunov based stability analysis, global boundedness of the observer errors along with their ultimate convergence and the convergence of the round trip delay estimator to the vicinity of its real value can be guaranteed in the closed-loop system. Finally, simulation and experimental studies are carried out utilizing the last link of a PHANToM Omni Haptic device moving like a one-link robot in the vertical plane.

    Lyapunov-Based Output Feedback Learning Control of Robot Manipulators
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Doğan, Kadriye Merve; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, Erkan; Çetin, Kamil
    This paper address the output feedback learning tracking control problem for robot manipulators with repetitive desired joint level trajectories. Specifically, an observer-based output feedback learning controller for periodic trajectories with known period have been proposed. The proposed learning controller guarantees semi-global asymptotic tracking despite the existence of parametric uncertainties associated with the robot dynamics and lack of velocity measurements. A learning-based feedforward term in conjunction with a novel observer formulation is designed to obtain the aforementioned result. The stability of the controller-observer couple is guaranteed via Lyapunov based arguments. Numerical studies performed on a two link robot manipulator are also presented to demonstrate the viability of the proposed method. © 2015 American Automatic Control Council.
