Optimal dimensioning is a fundamental problem in the design of Parallel Manipulators
(PMs). However, this problem is revealed to be very hard to solve because many PM …

The development of high-precision tasks, such as machining, needs a positioning device for
the cutting tool with the smallest possible error. Multiple design factors need to be …

Recently, an adaptive control approach has been proposed. This approach, named L1
adaptive control, involves the insertion of a low‐pass filter at the input of the Model …

This study focuses on the development of a new class of the Robust Integral of the Sign of
the Error (RISE) control law adequate for second-order nonlinear multi-input–multi-output …

This paper deals with the design of a new robust adaptive controller for parallel
manipulators based on sliding mode and modelbased adaptive control. More precisely, the …

In this paper, a new robust model-based super-twisting algorithm is proposed as a control
solution for parallel kinematic manipulators (PKMs). The conventional super-twisting …

Abstract Aeropropulsion System Test Facility (ASTF) is required to accurately control the
pressure and temperature of the airflow to test the performance of the aero-engine …

Parallel Kinematic Manipulators (PKMs) have gained an increased popularity in the last few
decades. This interest has been stimulated by the significant advantages of PKMs compared …

Modeling and Nonlinear Robust Control of Delta-Like Parallel Kinematic Manipulators deals
