III. Activitatea de cercetare

Activitatea de cercetare a fost si este orientata in urmatoarele directii: sisteme cu parametri distribuiti, roboti industriali, sisteme de conducere, sisteme numerice, control optimal, sisteme de conducere pentru roboti industriali, sisteme de actionare neconventionale cu lichide electrorheologice, sisteme fuzzy ,sisteme neconvetionale de conducere pentru robotii industriali,etc.

Lucrarile de cercetare cuprind un numar mare de rezultate privind sistemele cu parametri distribuiti, controlul optimal al acestora, utiliz`nd calcul variational si programare dinamica, programare incrementala, stabilitatea sistemelor distribuite, criterii frecventiale de tip Popov pentru SPD, introducerea functionalelor de predictie in programarea dinamica diferentiala a SPD, aplicarea controlului sistemelor descrise prin ecuatii cu derivate partiale la sistemele chimice, energetice, termice, hidraulice etc.

Alte rezultate importante au fost obtinute in domeniul controlului robotilor industriali, sisteme senzoriale pentru roboti, inteligenta artificiala si conducerea neconventionala a robotilor.

In acest sens se pot mentiona lucrarile elaborate si publicate la "3 rd Symposium on Use of Camputers"- din Gliwice, Polonia (1974), in revistele: Automatica-Metrologie-Calculatoare (1975), Revue Roumaine des Sciences Techniques, Serie Electronique et Energetique (1980), Automatic Problems (Ed.Academiei-1976) si la Conferintele din Patras - CISCE (1976), Praga - SCCE (1978), Bucuresti - ISC SCS (1979), ICSC(1981), MECC C'83- Patras (1983) si Varna (1987).

O activitate importanta a fost depusa in domeniul robotilor industriali, sistemelor senzoriale pentru roboti, inteligenta artificiala si conducerea neconventionala a robotilor. O prima categorie de probleme abordate se refera la controlul optimal al robotilor industriali (ISIR-Tokyo, 1981) si Automatics and Electronics - 1983, Bucuresti (ICCS, 1981).

O atentie deosebita a fost acordata manipulatoarelor cu o mobilitate infinita, structuri hiperredundante de tip tentacul-trompa. S-a introdus modelul matematic al manipulatorului tentacul (Springer Verlag-1984, Patras-1984, Bucuresti-CSCS 1984), Brasov (ROBOT, 1986), North Holland (1986), Iasi (CNAG-1986),San Francisco (ICRA 2000),Anaheim (ASME 2004). Pentru modelele infinit dimensionale ale acestor sisteme s-au propus cateva solutii pentru observeri de stare (MERO'88 - Cluj, 1988) si s-au determinat legi de conducere bazate pe modelul invers (AMSE Press -1987), Innsbruck (IASTED, 1990), Lugano (IASTED, 1991).

O directie importanta de cercetare este cea a implementarii unor structuri tehnologice bazate pe lichide electro-rheologice, in special dedicate modelelor hiperredundante tentaculare (Nagoya-ICRA, 1995), Pittsburg (ICRS, 1995), Roma (ECC, 1995), Minneapolis (ICRA, 1996), Taejon - MR World Cup Soccer - 1996.Au fost propuse ,de asemenea,cateva sisteme de actionare a manipulatoarelor industriale bazate pe materiale cu memoria formei (SMA): Detroit (ICRA 1999),Taipei (Int Conf on Robotics 2003)

Au fost introduse controlere bazate pe sisteme cu structura variabila implementabile cu lichide electro-rheologice si s-au propus algoritmi fuzzy pentru conducerea sistemelor complexe hiperredundante (New Orleans-FUZZ-IEEE, 1996, Anchorage-FUZZ-IEEE, 1998, Leuven-ICRA, 1998).

Un interes aparte l-au reprezentat sistemele de conducere bazate pe materiale inteligente (Harrogate-CSSM-1998, Arizona-IFDC-1991, Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures-1998, Victoria (Canada)-IROS/IEEE-1999, Timisoara-CONTI 1998, Brasov-ROBOTICA-1999, Springer-Verlog-1999.Trebuie mentionata introducerea in literatura de specialitate a metodei DSMC (Direct Sliding Mode Control) ce permite evolutia pe o linie de comutare prin comutarea parametrilor miscarii folosind lichide electrorheologice ,Washington (ICRA 2002).

O directie importanta de cercetare a fost acordata conducerii sistemelor multi-robot, problemelor complexe impuse de coordonarea miscarilor pentru o traiectorie impusa in conditii de restrictii asupra spatiului starilor si fortelor in articulatii (Bucuresti-SDCCS-1998, Iasi-1998, Bucuresti-CSCS-1999, Ottawa-DYCONS-1999, Monterey-CIRA-1999, Hawai-IASTED-2000, Monterey-ISRA-2000, Bucuresti-CSCS-2001, New York-ASME-2001).

Simultan cu aceasta tematica au fost abordate si problemele complexe ce apar in conducerea robotilor mobili, in conditiile simple si multi-task (Karlsruhe-CLAWAR-2001, Paris-CLAWAR-2002).

O directie importanta de cercetare a fost cea legata de noul domeniu impus pe plan mondial - mecatronica - un domeniu multidisciplinar al mecanicii, electronicii, calculatoarelor si automaticii. In acest sens se evidentiaza contributia adusa in stabilirea unor noi sisteme de conducere bazate pe o abordare energetica, care sa permita eliminarea dificultatilor inerente complexelor modele matematice ale acestor sisteme. Se remarca in acest sens lucrarile prezentate la San Francisco-ICR-2000, Singapore-ACRA/ICMT-2001, Bucuresti-CSC 13-2001, Berkeley-IFAC-2002, Washington-ICRA-2002, Taiwan-ICRA-2003 sau publicate in Dynamics and Control (1999) si IUTAM-Kluwer (1999).

O atentie deosebita a fost acordata studiului modelelor hiperredundante.Sunt obtinute ecuatiile de miscare in medii cu si fara restrictii si sunt tratate problemele complexe ale conducerii acestor sisteme prin algoritmi energetici implementati prin tehnici fuzzy si conducere prin vedere artificiala ,(Barcelona 2004) sau publicate in Studies in Informatics and Control Journal (2006).

Au fost studiate problemele complexe ale manipulatoarelor hyperredundante in contact cu mediul extern ,s-au determinat modelele dinamice ale acestor sisteme si s-au propus algoritmi de conducere bazati pe lichide electro rheologice care sa asigure stabilitatea miscarii pe traiectorie :Zurich (2007),Pasadena(ICRA 2008),Seoul (IFAC 2008).

Conducerea robotilor prin tehnici video,implementarea unor algoritmi pentru operare in timp real au constituit de asemenea o preocupare majora: Trans on Inf Science and Appl. 2006 ,Ed Academiei,2008.

O preocupare constanta a activitatii mele a fost concentrata pe definirea unor noi metode de identificare a modelelor dinamice din complexele structuri mecanice ale arhitecturilor robotice si gasirea unor algoritmi de conducere care sa ofere in cat mai mare masura parametrii de calitate impusi.Aceste eforturi au fost concretizate in Cap CONTROL aparut in Handbook of Mechanical Engineering ,Academic Press,1999, si in FROM CLASSICAL TO MODERN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING (Ed Academiei Romane,2007).

Un barometru al evaluarii cercetarii stiintifice este redat de citatiile existente in literatura de specialitate (peste 100) din care prin Google sunt semnalate cca 90 citatii , 37 apar in literatura din strainatate,apartinand unor personalitati ale roboticii mondiale ,de la prestigioase universitati din SUA ,Japonia,Germania,Franta,Korea,etc.Conceptul de controller cu structura variabila pentru roboti tentaculari introdus de mine in cateva lucrari a fost citat de 16 ori din care mentionez lucrarile colectivelor conduse de Robinson,Mochiyama,Chirikjian,Jones ,Carrozza,Wang,Tatlicioglu in [CIT1,CIT2,CIT 3,CIT4,CIT5,CIT8,CIT14,CIT15,CIT19].Modelul dinamic al sistemelor cu structura hiperredundanta a fost utilizat de Chirikjian,Burdick,Hayashi in [CIT20,CIT22,CIT27,CIT31].Utilizarea metodelor energetice in controlul pozitiei robotilor tentaculari a permis obtinerea unor algoritmi usor de implementat ,idée preluata si dezvoltata in lucrarile lui Braganza,Dawson,Walker,Nath [CIT38,CIT41,CIT42].Conducerea pe baza logicii fuzzy si introducerea unor algoritmi fuzzy pentru sisteme cu parametrii distribuiti au fost preluate de Katic,Vulobratovic,Wang,Sheng,Ma,Qin in[CIT 62,CIT63,Cit64].Introducerea materialelor inteligente in actionarea robotilor tentaculari a fost apreciata in lucrarile lui Jones,McMahan,Walker,Lanteigne,Jnifene [CIT46,CIT47,CIT48,CIT49].Modelele dinamice cu lungime variabila pentru robotii tentaculari au fost preluate in lucrarile lui Jones,Walker,Braganza,Dawson,Nepalli,Tatlicioglu [CIT57,CIT58,CIT59,CIT60,CIT61].Dezvoltarea unor algoritmi pentru roboti cooperativi hiperredundanti a fost citata in lucrarile luiGarg,Kumar,Ko,Lau[CIT78,CIT79] iar utilizarea controlerelor fuzzy bazate pe tehnologii neconventionale a fost preluata si de Clemmensen,Favre-Bulle,Kuo si Lin in [CIT27,CIT89,CIT90].

Sunt presedinte al Societatii Romane de Robotica,calitate in care am incercat sa coordonez eforturile de cercetare in acest domeniu ingineresc de varf al ultimelor decenii ,cu un impact deosebit asupra lumii socio economice.Am organizat numeroase conferinte ,simpozioane si work shopuri in domeniul roboticii industriale,robotilor mobili si al sistemelor de conducere aferente acestora.

Am fost visiting profesor la Universitatea din Saint-Etienne, Franta si Universitatea Auburn, Alabama, SUA. Am participat la finalizarea unor contracte de cercetare internationale pe domenii de v`rf ale sistemelor moderne de conducere.
