    A New Objective Function for Obstacle Avoidance by Redundant Service Robot Arms
    (SAGE Publications Inc., 2016) Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Maaroof, Omar W.; Tatlıcıoglu, Enver
    The performance of task-space tracking control of kinematically redundant robots regulating self-motion to ensure obstacle avoidance is studied and discussed. As the subtask objective, the links of the kinematically redundant assistive robot should avoid any collisions with the patient that is being assisted. The shortcomings of the obstacle avoidance algorithms are discussed and a new obstacle avoidance algorithm is proposed. The performance of the proposed algorithm is validated with tests that were carried out using the virtual model of a seven degrees-offreedom robot arm. The test results indicate that the developed controller for the robot manipulator is successful in both accomplishing the main-task and the sub-task objectives.

    Online Time Delay Identification and Control for General Classes of Nonlinear Systems
    (SAGE Publications Inc., 2013) Bayrak, Alper; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver
    In this study, online identification of state delays is discussed. First, a novel adaptive time delay identification technique is proposed for general classes of nonlinear systems subject to state delays. The stability of the time delay identification algorithm is analyzed via Lyapunov-based techniques. In this work, we consider the time delay as a nonlinear parameter effecting the system which is a seemingly novel departure from the existing literature. As an extension, this technique is modified to design a tracking controller for general classes of nonlinear systems subject to state delays. The main novelty of this controller is that identification of unknown state delays are ensured while output tracking objective is satisfied. Numerical simulations are conducted that demonstrate the efficiency of the time delay identification algorithm and the tracking controller.
