DEVELOPMENT OF A GRAVITATIONAL AND PENDULUM SOLAR TRACKER FOR STANDALONE PHOTOVOLTAIC PANELS by Jorge A. Wissmann, Carlos E. C. Nogueira, Marcelo M. M. Zampiva, Jair A. C. Siqueira, Doglas Bassegio

“…A tracking prototype was developed whose structure is classified as chronological due to its fixed rotation, manual as it requires daily adjustment, single-axis azimuthal, and "analog" as it lacks motors, sensors, or algorithms. The results showed that the developed tracking prototype achieved a 9.69% energy production increase during the research period, with peaks of 35.51% on sunny days, and a significant efficiency improvement during the early morning and late afternoon. …”

Collision detection and external force estimation for robot manipulators using a composite momentum observer by Benaoumeur Ibari, Mourad Hebali, Baghdadi Rezali, Menaouer Bennaoum

“…The focus of this paper was to design a hybrid approach for collision detection between robots and their environment, and further to estimate external forces acting on a robot manipulator without the need for additional sensors. The current collision detection methods using observers are still suffering from the problem of an unavoidable trade-off between the estimation sensitivity and the reduction of the peaking value at the initial time. …”
