Medical and Healthcare Robotics: New Paradigms and Recent Advances
provides an overview and exclusive insights into current trends,
the most recent innovations, and concerns in medical robotics. The
book covers the major areas of medical robotics, including
rehabilitation devices, artificial organs, assistive technologies,
service robotics, and robotic devices for surgery, exploration,
diagnosis, therapy, and training. It highlights the limitations and
the importance of robotics and artificial intelligence for medical
and healthcare applications. The book is a timely and comprehensive
reference guide for undergraduate-level students, graduate
students, and researchers in the fields of electrical engineering,
mechanical engineering, mechatronics, control systems engineering,
and biomedical engineering. It can be useful for master’s
programs, leading consultants, and industrial companies. The book
can be of high interest for physicians and physiotherapists and all
technical people in the medical and biomedical fields.
New Trends in Observer-Based Control: A Practical Guide to Process
and Engineering Applications presents a concise introduction to the
latest advances in observer-based control design. The book gives a
comprehensive tutorial on new trends in the design of
observer-based controllers for which the separation principle is
well established. It covers a wide range of applications, also
including worked examples that make it ideal for both advanced
courses and researchers starting work in the field. This book is
also particularly suitable for engineers who want to quickly and
efficiently enter the field.
New Trends in Observer-Based Control: An Introduction to Design
Approaches and Engineering Applications, Volume One presents a
clear-and-concise introduction to the latest advances in
observer-based control design. It provides a comprehensive tutorial
on new trends in the design of observer-based controllers for which
the separation principle is well established. In addition, since
the theoretical developments remain more advanced than the
engineering applications, more experimental results are still
needed. A wide range of applications are covered, and the book
contains worked examples which make it ideal for both advanced
courses and researchers starting in the field.
Recent Advances in Chaotic Systems and Synchronization: From Theory
to Real World Applications is a major reference for scientists and
engineers interested in applying new computational and mathematical
tools for solving complex problems related to modeling, analyzing
and synchronizing chaotic systems. Furthermore, it offers an array
of new, real-world applications in the field. Written by eminent
scientists in the field of control theory and nonlinear systems
from 19 countries (Cameroon, China, Ethiopia, France, Greece,
India, Italia, Iran, Japan, Mexico, and more), this book covers the
latest advances in chaos theory, along with the efficiency of novel
synchronization approaches. Readers will find the fundamentals and
algorithms related to the analysis and synchronization of chaotic
systems, along with key applications, including electronic design,
text and image encryption, and robot control and tracking.
Control Theory in Biomedical Engineering: Applications in
Physiology and Medical Robotics highlights the importance of
control theory and feedback control in our lives and explains how
this theory is central to future medical developments. Control
theory is fundamental for understanding feedback paths in
physiological systems (endocrine system, immune system,
neurological system) and a concept for building artificial organs.
The book is suitable for graduate students and researchers in the
control engineering and biomedical engineering fields, and medical
students and practitioners seeking to enhance their understanding
of physiological processes, medical robotics (legs, hands, knees),
and controlling artificial devices (pacemakers, insulin injection
devices). Control theory profoundly impacts the everyday lives of a
large part of the human population including the disabled and the
elderly who use assistive and rehabilitation robots for improving
the quality of their lives and increasing their independence.
The inverted pendulum is a classic problem in dynamics and control
theory and is widely used as a benchmark for testing control
algorithms. It is also an area of active study, with many new
innovations and applications - for example the problem is solved in
the technology of the Segway, a self-balancing transportation
device. This book provides an overall picture of historical and
current trends and developments in nonlinear control theory, based
on the simple structure and rich nonlinear model of the inverted
pendulum. After an introduction to the system and open/current
problems, the book covers the topic in four parts: applications of
robust state estimation and control to pendulum-cart systems;
controllers for under-actuated mechanical systems; nonlinear
controllers for mobile inverted pendulum systems; and robust
controllers based observers via Takagi-Sugeno or linear approaches.
With contributions from international researchers in the field, The
Inverted Pendulum in Control Theory and Robotics is essential
reading for researchers, scientists, engineers and students in the
field of control theory, robotics and nonlinear systems.
