This paper deals with a displacement control method of a piezoelectric actuator (piezo). When voltage is applied to a piezo with conductive plates attached on both ends of the pie...
A practical method is proposed for estimating the inertial parameters of robot manipulators with substantial unmodeled joint friction and actuator dynamics. The manipulator is mou...
