Automating the Generation of MBD-Driven Assembly Work Instruction Documentation for Aircraft Components (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Papadaki, A. R., Bacharoudis, K., Bainbridge, D., Burbage, N., Turner, A., Sanderson, D., …Ratchev, S. M. (2023). Automating the Generation of MBD-Driven Assembly Work Instruction Documentation for Aircraft Components. In Flexible Automation and Intelligent Manufacturing: The Human-Data-Technology Nexus: Proceedings of FAIM 2022, June 19–23, 2022, Detroit, Michigan, USA (394-403). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-18326-3_38

The classical approach to the creation of assembly work instructions for high value, complex products is time-consuming and prone to error. It requires a process engineer to write the work instructions step-by-step and manually insert specific techni...

Learning Feedforward Control for Industrial Manipulators (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Liu, C., Popov, A., Turner, A., Shires, E., & Ratchev, S. (2021). Learning Feedforward Control for Industrial Manipulators. In 2021 IEEE 10th Data Driven Control and Learning Systems Conference (DDCLS) (523-528). https://doi.org/10.1109/DDCLS52934.2021.9455672

In this work, an iterative learning control (ILC) algorithm is proposed for industrial manipulators. The proposed ILC algorithm works coordinately with the inverse dynamics of the manipulator and a feedback controller. The entire control scheme has t...
