The sensors used are laser range finders and cameras installed in the end effector. For automatic insertion, we consider image processing techniques to support visual servoing the tool to the hole. We also discuss issues surrounding the control of heavy-duty mining manipulators, in particular, friction, stiction, and actuator saturation.Web

Indeed, stiction compensation via MPC and other advanced control methods is an area of recent activity, as witnessed by several other works published in the last years [5–10]. In two recent works [6,10] we showed that stiction embedding MPC, in which the MPC model is augmented with valve dynamics, is a suitable approach to obtain good set ...Web

Control valve, affected by stiction, causes closed-loop signals to experience oscillations, which ultimately leads to a decrease in product quality, reduced plant throughput, and increased environmental footprint. Therefore, it is indispensable to detect and quantify stiction in control valves. To accomplish this objective, in the present work, four …Web

Introduction. As an essential actuation facility, control valve plays a vital role in ensuring the normal operation of industrial process. The behavior of stiction originated from control valve will bring about the fluctuation and oscillation of process variables, which may directly damage the performance of control loops and the quality of the products.Web

Stiction can be considered as resistance at the start, which is usually measured by the difference between the force required to overcome the maximum and minimum static friction [1]. In other words, stiction is a tendency to skip-jump behavior due to strong static friction, which reduces the quality of valve movement [11].Web
