Therefore, the paper is concerned with the improvement of the dynamic precision for direct driven servo axes which is still restricted by structural vibrations. For this purpose, a ball screw test rig was analyzed for which the standard cascade control structure was extended by an additional velocity feedback. This structural extension has the potential to improve the controller performance significantly due to a better damping of low frequent vibrations. Furthermore, a parametric dynamic model for the control structure was derived to investigate the effects of the controller extension. For this analysis, the influences of the used tuning factors and filters is discussed in the frequency domain based on bode plots. The results of these cognitions are transferred to the time domain and illustrated by step responses. In addition, an evaluation by the criterion of the IAE （integral of absolute error） and the Prony analysis is carried out. Finally, the results are experimentally verified at the ball screw test rig. The paper closes with the conclusions.展开更多

In comparison with fuzzy and extension PID controllers, the proposed extension PID predictable controller shows higher control gains when system states are away from equilibrium, and retains a lower profile of control signals at the same time. Consequently, better control performance is achieved. Through the proposed tuning formula, the weighting factors of an extension-logic predictable controller can be systematically selected according to the control plant. An experimental example through industrial field data and site engineers＇ experience demonstrates the superior performance of the proposed controller over the fuzzy controller.展开更多

While it is established that brain functions primarily rely on neuronal activity, an active contribution of astrocytes to information processing is only starting to be considered. There is growing evidence that astrocytes, as part of the tripartite synapse, participate in this challenge by receiving and integrating neuronal signals and, in turn, by sending signals that target neurons[1]. The involvement of astrocytes in information processing has mainly been studied at the level of the single astrocyte, often missing the role of astrocyte networks in this process.展开更多

Based on the drive frequency response, suitable rules of thumb with optimum velocity control damping performance are derived in this contribution that turned out to be very efficient in several dozen machine tool servo axis applications of different industrial partners in Switzerland and southern Germany. Anyway, single feedback loop velocity control sometimes provides insufficient damping of structural vibrations, especially for high dynamic machine tools or robots. The axis performance can be improved significantly by state space control extensions that are meanwhile available for commercial machine tool control systems. This contribution explains the state space control extension application with effective commissioning rules of thumb for typical machine tool axes as well as robot joint drives. The achievable benefit is elucidated by exemplary machine tool axes.展开更多
