The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

© 2018 The robotic platform in this study has dual, seven-function, hydraulically actuated manipulators, which are being used for research into assisted tele-operation for common nuclear decommissioning tasks, such as pipe cutting. The article concerns the identification of state-dependent parameter (SDP) models for joint angle control. Compared to earlier SDP analysis of the same device, the present work proposes a new way of representing the state-dependent gain and parametrises this using novel regret-regression methods. A mechanistic interpretation of this model yields dead-zone and angular velocity saturation coefficients, and facilitates SDP-based control with an inverse dead-zone. This approach integrates the input signal calibration, system identification and nonlinear control system design steps, using a relatively small data-set, allowing for straightforward recalibration when the dynamic characteristics have changed due to age and use, or after the installation of replacement parts.
