Book description
Motion Control Systems
is concerned with design methods that support the never-ending
requirements for faster and more accurate control of mechanical motion.
The book presents material that is fundamental, yet at the same time
discusses the solution of complex problems in motion control systems.
Methods presented in the book are based on the authors' original
research results. Mathematical complexities are kept to a required
minimum so that practicing engineers as well as students with a limited
background in control may use the book. It is unique in presenting
know-how accumulated through work on very diverse problems into a
comprehensive unified approach suitable for application in high
demanding, high-tech products. Major issues covered include motion
control ranging from simple trajectory tracking and force control, to
topics related to haptics, bilateral control with and without delay in
measurement and control channels, as well as control of nonredundant and
redundant multibody systems.
- Provides a consistent unified theoretical framework for motion
control design
- Offers graduated increase in complexity and reinforcement
throughout the book
- Gives detailed explanation of underlying similarities and
specifics in motion control
- Unified treatment of single degree-of-freedom and multibody systems
- Explains the fundamentals through implementation examples
- Based on classroom-tested materials and the authors' original
research work
- Written by the leading researchers in sliding mode control (SMC)
and disturbance observer (DOB)
- Accompanying lecture notes for instructors
- Simulink and MATLAB® codes available for readers to download
Motion Control Systemsis an ideal textbook for a course on
motion control or as a reference for post-graduates and researchers in
robotics and mechatronics. Researchers and practicing engineers will
also find the techniques helpful in designing mechanical motion
systems.
