This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the application of Variable Structure
Systems (VSSs) with Sliding Mode (SM) methods in motion control systems. Our aim is to …

Reset Control Systems addresses the analysis for reset control treating both its basic form
which requires only that the state of the controller be reinitialized to zero (the reset action) …

Hysteresis nonlinearity degrades the positioning accuracy of a piezostage and requires a
suppression for precision micro-/nanopositioning applications. This paper proposes two new …

This paper presents the design and manufacturing processes of a new piezoactuated XY
stage with integrated parallel, decoupled, and stacked kinematics structure for micro …

The positional synchronization control problem is addressed for bilateral teleoperation
systems subjected to system uncertainties, exogenous forces, unknown disturbances and …

In this study, we show that tasks can be realized by appropriate coordinate transformation.
This approach, oblique coordinate control, decouples tasks. Even though a system is large …

This paper presents a robust adaptive constrained motion tracking control methodology for
piezo-actuated flexure-based micro/nano manipulation mechanisms. This unique control …

Many effective robot-manipulator control schemes using a disturbance observer have been
reported in the literature in the past decades. Besides, the disturbance observer combined …

Communication delays are problematic for teleoperated systems. They give rise to a tradeoff
between speed and robustness, which cannot be overcome by means of linear controllers …

In this article, the synchronization control problem of bilateral teleoperation systems with
time-varying delays and input dead zones is addressed. A novel radial basis function …
