The spring tube is the core component of the hydraulic servovalve, and its stiffness characteristics determine the sensitivity of the servovalve.

The stability of the effective stiffness for the spring tube is further analyzed by the measurement data. The contribution and novelty of this paper are that based on the force analysis of the spring tube in the servovalve internal structure, an effective and systematic stiffness measurement and evaluation method are proposed. On this basis, experiments and stiffness characteristics analysis are carried out. Furthermore, several structural factors affecting the stiffness characteristics of spring tube are considered, and the stiffness characteristics of spring tube are systematically studied and analyzed. Based on this research and analysis, the systematic study of measurement and characteristics of precision components is very important for practical complex systems in this field. This makes it possible to further study the measurement of precision components which are difficult to measure in the actual structure.

The disturbances caused by the blood flow and tissue surface motions are major concerns during the motion planning of an intracardiac robotic catheter. Maintaining a stable and safe contact on the desired ablation point is essential for achieving effective lesions during the ablation procedure. In this paper, a probabilistic formulation of the contact stability and the contact safety for intravascular cardiac catheters under the blood flow and surface motion disturbances is presented. Probabilistic contact stability and contact safety metrics, employing a sample-based representation of the blood flow velocity distribution and the heart motion trajectory, are introduced. Finally, the contact stability and safety for an magnetic resonance imaging-actuated robotic catheter under main pulmonary artery blood flow disturbances and left ventricle surface motion disturbances are analyzed in simulation as example scenarios.

A warm start method is developed for efficiently solving complex chance constrained optimal control problems using biased kernel density estimators and Legendre–Gauss–Radau collocation. To address the computational challenges, the warm start method improves both the starting point for the chance constrained optimal control problem, as well as the efficiency of cycling through mesh refinement iterations. The improvement is accomplished by tuning a parameter of the kernel density estimator, as well as implementing a kernel switch as part of the solution process. Additionally, the number of samples for the biased kernel density estimator is set to incrementally increase through a series of mesh refinement iterations. Thus, the warm start method is a combination of tuning a parameter, a kernel switch, and an incremental increase in sample size. This warm start method is successfully applied to solve two challenging chance constrained optimal control problems in a computationally efficient manner using biased kernel density estimators and Legendre–Gauss–Radau collocation.

Recent deep learning techniques promise high hopes for self-driving cars while there are still many issues to be addressed such as uncertainties (e.g., extreme weather conditions) in learned models. In this work, for the uncertainty-aware lane keeping, we first propose a convolutional mixture density network (CMDN) model that estimates the lateral position error, the yaw angle error, and their corresponding uncertainties from the camera vision. We then establish a vision-based uncertainty-aware lane keeping strategy in which a high-level reinforcement learning policy hierarchically modulates the reference longitudinal speed as well as the low-level lateral control. Finally, we evaluate the robustness of our strategy against the uncertainties of the learned CMDN model coming from unseen or noisy situations, as compared to the conventional lane keeping strategy without taking into account such uncertainties. Our uncertainty-aware strategy outperformed the conventional lane keeping strategy, without a lane departure in our test scenario during high-uncertainty periods with random occurrences of fog and rain situations on the road. The successfully trained deep reinforcement learning agent slows down the vehicle speed and tries to minimize the lateral error during high uncertainty situations similarly to what human drivers would do in such situations.

This study uses a low-density solid-state flash lidar for estimating the trajectories of road vehicles in vehicle collision avoidance applications. Low-density flash lidars are inexpensive compared to the commonly used radars and point-cloud lidars, and have attracted the attention of vehicle manufacturers recently. However, tracking road vehicles using the sparse data provided by such sensors is challenging due to the few reflected measurement points obtained. In this paper, such challenges in the use of low-density flash lidars are identified and estimation algorithms to handle the same are presented. A method to use the amplitude information provided by the sensor for better localization of targets is evaluated using both physics-based simulations and experiments. A two-step hierarchical clustering algorithm is then employed to group multiple detections from a single object into one measurement, which is then associated with the corresponding object using a Joint Integrated Probabilistic Data Association (JIPDA) algorithm. A Kalman filter is used to estimate the longitudinal and lateral motion variables and the results are presented, which show that good tracking, especially in the lateral direction, can be achieved using the proposed algorithm despite the sparse measurements provided by the sensor.

This paper introduces an adaptive robust trajectory tracking controller design to provably realize stable bipedal robotic walking under parametric and unmodeled uncertainties. Deriving such a controller is challenging mainly because of the highly complex bipedal walking dynamics that are hybrid and involve nonlinear, uncontrolled state-triggered jumps. The main contribution of the study is the synthesis of a continuous-phase adaptive robust tracking control law for hybrid models of bipedal robotic walking by incorporating the construction of multiple Lyapunov functions into the control Lyapunov function. The evolution of the Lyapunov function across the state-triggered jumps is explicitly analyzed to construct sufficient conditions that guide the proposed control design for provably guaranteeing the stability and tracking the performance of the hybrid system in the presence of uncertainties. Simulation results on fully actuated bipedal robotic walking validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in walking stabilization under uncertainties.
