    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 Model Independent Observer Based Output Feedback Tracking Controller for Robotic Manipulators With Dynamical Uncertainties
    (Cambridge University Press, 2017) Zergeroğlu, Erkan; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Kaleli, Egemen
    In this work, we propose the development and the corresponding stability analysis of a novel, observer-based output feedback (OFB), tracking controller for rigid-link robot manipulators. Specifically, a model-independent variable-structure-like observer in conjunction with a desired dynamic compensation technique have been utilized to remove the link velocity dependency of the controller formulation. Asymptotic stability of the observer - controller couple is then guaranteed via Lyapunov-based arguments. An adaptive controller extension is also presented to illustrate the expansiveness of the proposed scheme. Experimental studies performed on a two-link planar robot with dynamical uncertainties are included in order to demonstrate the performance and feasibility of the proposed method.

    Observer Based Adaptive Output Feedback Tracking Control of Robot Manipulators
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2010) Zergeroğlu, Erkan; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver
    In this paper, we propose an observer based adaptive output feedback (OFB) tracking controller for rigid-link robot manipulators. Specifically, we used a model independent observer in conjuction with a desired compensation adaptation law (DCAL) to remove the link velocity dependency of the controller and achieved asymptotic stability of the observer-controller couple despite the uncertainties associated with the system dynamics. Lyapunov based arguments are utilized to illustrate the stability of the proposed controller. Simulation results are included to demonstrate the performance of observer-controller couple.
