Position/Force Tracking Impedance Control for Robotic Systems with Uncertainties Based on Adaptive Jacobian and Neural Network by Jinzhu Peng, Zeqi Yang, Tianlei Ma

“…Then, a robust term is designed to compensate the external disturbances and the approximation errors of RBFNN. In this way, the command position trajectories generated from the outer-loop force impedance controller can be then tracked so that the contact force tracking performance can be achieved indirectly in the forced direction. …”

Dynamic Modeling and Adaptive Robust Synchronous Control of Parallel Robotic Manipulator for Industrial Application by Haiqiang Zhang, Hairong Fang, Qi Zou, Dan Zhang

“…Furthermore, linear parameterization regression matrix was determined by virtue of command function “equationsToMatrix” in MATLAB. Secondly, the three adaptive robust synchronous controllers (i.e., sliding mode control, high gain control, and high frequency control) are developed, by incorporating the camera sensor technique into adaptive robust synchronous control architecture. …”

AGS3-based optogenetic GDI induces GPCR-independent Gβγ signalling and macrophage migration by Waruna Thotamune, Sithurandi Ubeysinghe, Chathuri Rajarathna, Dinesh Kankanamge, Koshala Olupothage, Aditya Chandu, Bryan A. Copits, Ajith Karunarathne

“…Here, we employed in silico structure-guided engineering of a novel optogenetic GDI, based on the AGS3’s G-protein regulatory motif, to understand its GDI activity and induce standalone Gβγ signalling in living cells on optical command. Our results demonstrate that plasma membrane recruitment of OptoGDI efficiently releases Gβγ, and its subcellular targeting generated localized PIP3 and triggered macrophage migration. …”

ESO-Based Non-Singular Terminal Filtered Integral Sliding Mode Backstepping Control for Unmanned Surface Vessels by Jianping Yuan, Zhuohui Chai, Qingdong Chen, Zhihui Dong, Lei Wan

“…Subsequently, a backstepping sliding mode controller based on the Lyapunov theory is designed to generate the steering torque control commands for the USV. To further enhance the tracking performance of the system, we introduce a non-singular terminal integral sliding mode surface with a double power convergence law and redesign the backstepping sliding mode controller for the USV heading control. …”
