Q2. What future works have the authors mentioned in the paper "An inverse prandtl-ishlinskii model based decoupling control methodology for a 3-dof flexure-based mechanism" ?
In order to further improve the static and dynamic characteristics including the high frequency trajectory tracking performance, their future work will focus on the laser interferometry based sensing and measurement technique to improve the robustness and stability of the proposed novel feedforward/feedback control methodology.
Q3. What is the purpose of the decoupling strategy?
when the platform is actuated, any coupled error motions will degrade its tracking property of a 2-D trajectory, so a decoupling strategy has been introduced as a necessary part of the controller.
Q4. What is the effect of external disturbances on the positioning accuracy of the actuator?
Then a closed-loop feedback controller is used to eliminate the effects of external disturbances such as vibration and noise on the positioning accuracy of the mechanism.
Q5. How many parameters are tuned by Ziegler-Nichols method?
The parameter of the feedback controller are tuned by the Ziegler-Nichols method, intranslational direction kp and ki are 0.05 and 50, respectively, while in the motion rotate about the z axis they are 0.06 and 70, respectively.
Q6. What is the maximum resonant frequency of the flexure-based mechanism?
After assemble the piezoelectric, the plane displacement of the flexure-based mechanism can reach 12.74 µm, 12.22 µm in the x and y direction, respectively, the maximal rotation angle in clockwise and anticlockwise are 0.0088° and 0.0103°, respectively, the first resonant frequency is 790 HZ in the θZ direction.
Q7. What is the effect of the installation of the piezoelectric actuators on the moving platform?
the installation of the piezoelectric actuators will introduce additional stiffness in that side of the moving platform and thus disturb the symmetric properties of the entire system.
Q8. What is the hysteresis of the backlash operator?
the backlash operator has symmetrical shape about the central line and so the modeled hysteresis loop must also possess symmetrical characteristics.
Q9. What is the common configuration of the dead-zone operators?
The common configuration is to connect the dead-zone operators or cubic polynomial input functions in series with the backlash operators.
Q10. What is the inverse hysteresis of the piezoelectric actuator?
The rate dependent hysteresis of the piezoelectric actuator is compensated by exploiting a modified inverse P-I hysteresis model in a feedforward controller, using the direct parameter identification technique.
Q11. What is the current design of the actuators?
The actuators are driven by a piezoelectric amplifier (E-505.00, PI, Germany) that receives command signals from the I/O interface of a dSPACE DS1103 R&D control board, on which the newly developed control methodology is implemented with a sampling rate of 10 kHz.
Q12. What is the design of the dSPACE DS1103?
A new design of feedforward/feedback controller for the flexure-based mechanism, accountingfor hysteresis and external disturbances, has been established and implemented in the dSPACE DS1103 R&D control board.
Q13. What is the way to describe the inverse hysteresis model?
The modified inverse P-I hysteresis model can be used to form the feedforward controller, butit cannot compensate the unmodeled errors, including creep of the piezoelectric actuator and external disturbances such as vibration and noise, which also influence the positioning accuracy of the mechanism.
Q14. What is the way to describe the asymmetric hysteresis?
It is demonstrated that both the dead-zone operator and polynomial input function can be usedto describe the asymmetric hysteresis [32].
Q15. What is the decoupling compensation for the non-actuated directions?
The decoupling compensation signal for the non-actuated directions is calculated based on the experimental results from single axis actuation testing (Fig.7), and these signals are just compensated to the input command of the modified inverse P-I model, the tracking error e still determined by difference between the desired displacement and the measured displacement.
Q16. What is the linear relationship between the weight and the input rate?
The linear relationship between the weight and the input rate is bkwh ty (4)where k=[k1, k2,…, kn] T and b=[b1, b2,…, bn] T are the slop and intercept vectors, respectively, which can be determined in the parameter identification.
Q17. How can the inverse hysteresis model be used to improve the performance?
These errors can be effectively compensated by feedback methods, so in order to improve the static and dynamic performance of the entire system, a combined feedforward/feedback controller is introduced.
Q18. How can the inverse hysteresis model be improved?
the modelling precision with only polynomial input function is hardly further improved, and the modelling precision can be improved by increasing the number of the dead-zone operators resulting in an obvious increase of the response time.
Q19. How is the performance of the 3-DOF flexure-based mechanism examined?
The performance of the 3-DOF flexure-based mechanism with the newly-developedfeedforward/feedback controller has been examined through sinusoidal signal tracking.
Q20. What is the reason why a real 3-DOF flexure-based mechanism will exhibit?
Even if ideally designed in principle, a real 3-DOF flexure-based mechanism will exhibit somecoupling motions between different motion directions because of inevitable manufacturing and assembly errors.
Q21. How can the decoupling control algorithm be used to compensate for the coupling error?
This can be realized in practice by changing the input signal to the modified inverse P-I hysteresis model, and this signal can be achieved by adding the decoupling control algorithm onto the previous version of the controller.
