Published in 2017 at "IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics"

DOI: 10.1109/tie.2016.2573266

Abstract: Precise control of a pneumatic muscle actuator is a challenging problem, due to its nonlinear and time-varying characteristics. Specifically, it can be modeled as parallel connection of a nonlinear friction force, a nonlinear spring, and… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Actuators"

DOI: 10.3390/act10020035

Abstract: This paper presents a tracking control method for pneumatic muscle actuators (PMAs). Considering that the PMA platform only feedbacks position, and the velocity and disturbances cannot be observed directly, we use the extended-state-observer (ESO) for… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Actuators"

DOI: 10.3390/act14120582

Abstract: Pneumatic Artificial Muscles (PAMs) are soft actuators that mimic the contractile behavior of biological muscles through fluid-driven deformation. Originating from McKibben’s 1950s braided design, PAMs have evolved into a diverse class of actuators, offering high… read more here.
