TLDR
In this article, a novel approach for controlling electrically driven robot manipulators based on voltage control is presented, where feedback linearization is applied on the electrical equations of the dc motors to cancel the current terms which transfer all manipulator dynamics to the electrical circuit of motor.
Abstract
This paper presents a novel approach for controlling electrically driven robot manipulators based on voltage control. The voltage-based control is preferred comparing to torque-based control. This approach is robust in the presence of manipulator uncertainties since it is free of the manipulator model. The control law is very simple, fast response, efficient, robust, and can be used for high-speed tracking purposes. The feedback linearization is applied on the electrical equations of the dc motors to cancel the current terms which transfer all manipulator dynamics to the electrical circuit of motor. The control system is simulated for position control of the PUMA 560 robot driven by permanent magnet dc motors.

Decentralized Direct Adaptive Fuzzy Control for Flexible-Joint Robots

TL;DR: Based on the guaranteed stability method, a decentralized direct adaptive fuzzy control approach for the flexible-joint robots was presented in this paper. But, the proposed control is simpler, less computational and more effective compared with the torque-based control approaches.
