The operation of industrial automated production systems (aPS) usually requires human
operators that observe and, if necessary, intervene to keep aPS in steady operation. Inside …

This paper presents the results on the modeling and control of a two-wheeled prototype. The
vehicle, named B2, like the Segway, is principally a self-balancing machine whose wheels …

A new dynamic model for a class of two-wheeled mobile robot (2WMR), whose mass centre
locates below its wheel axis, is presented. The dynamic model considered as the motion of …

Despite the fact that there are various configurations of self-balanced two-wheeled
machines (TWMs), the workspace of such systems is restricted by their current …

The development of high performance controllers capable of dealing with both tracking
control and disturbance rejection has attracted considerable attention. This paper …

Purpose–The purpose of this paper is to present a proportional-integral (PI) observer design
on a linear system with stochastic noises. Design/methodology/approach–The noised …

The fractional-order model has been widely adopted in the situation of describing accurate
behaviors of microsystems. Unlike the full-order model, it endows the designer with more …

The two-inertia system is a simple model with an actuator and a load. For applications such
as position or velocity controls, a difference between the actuator and load is expected …

This paper considers observer design and controllability issues on vehicular systems with
stochastic noises. The noised disturbances are modeled as independent Brownian motions …

The experimental and analytical modal analysis is used to establish a system modelling
methodology in rotating structures, which subsequently can help in design and development …
