Adaptive sliding mode attitude control of 2-degrees-of-freedom helicopter system with actuator saturation and disturbances (2023)
Journal Article
Li, R., Lei, C., Shi, B., Zhu, Q., & Yue, X. (in press). Adaptive sliding mode attitude control of 2-degrees-of-freedom helicopter system with actuator saturation and disturbances. Journal of Vibration and Control, https://doi.org/10.1177/10775463231212530

The modelling uncertainties, external disturbance and actuator saturation issues will degrade the performance and even the safety of flight. To improve control performance, this study proposes an adaptive U-model based double sliding control (UDSMC)...

This study presents a generalised framework for model-free robust decentralised control (MFRDC) of interconnected MIMO dynamic systems, with the goal of significantly reducing complexity in model-based design. A model-free robust sliding mode control... Read More about Model-free robust decentralised control of multi-input-multi-output nonlinear interconnected dynamic systems.

Neural network-enhanced fault diagnosis of robot joints (2023)
Journal Article
Zhang, Y., & Zhu, Q. (2023). Neural network-enhanced fault diagnosis of robot joints. Algorithms, 16(10), Article 489. https://doi.org/10.3390/a16100489

Industrial robots play an indispensable role in flexible production lines, and the faults caused by degradation of equipment, motors, mechanical system joints, and even task diversity affect the efficiency of production lines and product quality. Aim... Read More about Neural network-enhanced fault diagnosis of robot joints.

Two iterative reweighted algorithms for systems contaminated by outliers (2023)
Journal Article
Chen, J., Hu, M., Liu, Y., & Zhu, Q. (2023). Two iterative reweighted algorithms for systems contaminated by outliers. IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 72, https://doi.org/10.1109/tim.2023.3308255

This study proposes two iterative reweighted (IRE) algorithms for systems whose data are contaminated by outliers. For the negative effect caused by the outliers, traditional least squares (LSs) and gradient descent (GD) algorithms cannot obtain unbi...
