TL;DR: In this paper, a cascade controller with friction compensation based on the LuGre model is proposed for a pneumatic positioning system, which is applied to a servopneumatics robot.

TL;DR: In this article, a coupled finite element model of the structure is derived assuming a two-phase material and this structural model is written into the state-space representation, and the optimization of the shape and placement of the conventionally embedded piezoelectric actuators are performed using a sequential linear programming (SLP) algorithm.

TL;DR: The proposed methodology allows designers to synthesize reliable systems under IEC61850 real-time communication requirements through simple operational conditions cases that, once validated, can be used in performance and conformance testing of more complex systems.

TL;DR: The electromagnetic model for magnetic field distribution, open-circuit induced voltage, and axial force and force ripple was developed and validated by means of finite-element analysis and with experimental results obtained from a prototype.

TL;DR: Experimental results illustrate the most significant advantages and potential limitations of the proposed scheme in real applications.
