Research on Integrated Guidance and Control of Distributed Cooperation of Multi-Interceptor with State Coupling by Xiang Liu, Xiaogeng Liang

“…Secondly, the cooperative control strategy of the multi-interceptor is designed with the “leader-follower” distributed network mode to obtain the speed in the three directions of the interceptor in air and transform them to the general flight speed, trajectory inclination angle, and trajectory deflection instruction by using the transformational relation of kinematics. Finally, the “follower” controller is designed with the FTDO and dynamic surface sliding-mode control. …”

Parallel Robot Translational Performance Evaluation through Direction-Selective Index (DSI) by G. Boschetti, R. Rosa, A. Trevisani

“…The investigation is both numerical and experimental and allows highlighting the two chief advantages of the proposed DSIs over more conventional manipulability indexes: not only are DSIs more accurate in predicting the workspace regions where manipulators can best perform translational movements along specific directions, but also they allow foreseeing satisfactorily the dynamic performance variations within the workspace, though being purely kinematic indexes. The experiments have been carried out on an instrumented 4-RUU commercial robot.…”
