This paper presents a modular control platform which is tailored for teaching and research applications. It aims at being entirely “student-proof” and features software-independent safety mechanisms, extensive signal conditioning and easy-to-use interfaces ...
This paper presents preliminary results in the frame of the development of a very high speed synchronous drive with a rated power of 6 kW at the rated speed of 180 krpm taking place in the context of a university-industry partnership. Due to the very high ...
This dissertation considers mechatronic systems driven by piezoelectric ultrasonic motors (PUM). The focus is set on optimal system design and sensorless position control. Mechatronic industry faces the challenge to deliver ever more efficient and reliable ...
This paper presents a method for wheel-ground contact angle measurement and a traction control strategy minimizing slip in rough terrain. The slip minimization algorithm has been tested and compared with a standard speed control in simulation, which allows ...
