Purpose: Considering the external disturbances and dynamic uncertainties during the process of the trajectory tracking, this paper aims to address the problem of the welding robot trajectory tracking with guaranteed accuracy. Design/methodology/approach: The controller consists sliding mode...

Purpose: This paper aims to address the collision problem between robot and the external environment (including human) in an unstructured situation. A new collision detection and torque optimization control method is proposed. Design/methodology/approach: Firstly, when the collision appears, a...

Fenton, a conventional technology, has been widely employed for wastewater purification, but it still suffers from the unsatisfactory capability for pollutants degradation. Herein, a membrane-based Fenton process was proposed by immobilizing nano zero valent iron (NZVI) in a CNT membrane...

The implementation of the thermal mass of envelope and intelligent controls to the building is a key solution to improve energy flexibility. This study researched the energy flexibility of PCM-based multi-layer wall (PCMMW) from systematic nature of building design and operation control. A new...
