Currently, there is an intensive development of bipedal walking robots. The most known
solutions are based on the use of the principles of human gait created in nature during …

There are two main categories of force control schemes: hybrid position‐force control and
impedance control. However, the former does not take into account the dynamic interaction …

This paper presents the recent advancements in the control of multiple-degree-of-freedom
hydraulic robotic manipulators. A literature review is performed on their control, covering …

In this paper, a force-sensorless high-performance contact force/motion control approach is
proposed for multiple-degree-of-freedom hydraulic manipulators. A rigorous stability proof …

Industrial robot manipulators are general-purpose machines used for industrial automation
in order to increase productivity, flexibility, and product quality. Other reasons for using …

In challenging robotic tasks, high-bandwidth closed-loop control performance of the system
is required for successful task completion. One of the most critical factors inhibiting the wide …

In addition to high-precision closed-loop control performance, energy efficiency is another
vital characteristic in field-robotic hydraulic systems as energy source (s) must be carried on …

Industrial robots cannot be reconfigured to optimally fulfill a given task and often have to be
caged to guarantee human safety. Consequently, production processes are meticulously …

This paper proposes a novel modelling approach for a heavy-duty manipulator with parallel–
serial structures connected in series. Each considered parallel–serial structure contains a …

The practical long-term application of power-assisted exoskeleton robots requires
lightweight, high-efficient, and high-control precision actuators. Based on the improvement …
