摘要:AbstractThe nonsmooth phenomena such as backlash and Coulomb friction, often occurring in mechanical systems, typically produce undesired inaccuracies, oscillations and instability thereby degrading the system performance. In this paper, the H∞synthesis is developed for a class of nonsmooth systems and it is then applied to an industrial emulator where the described phenomena are present, and an elastic band is included in the transmission motor-load, and only motor position measurements are feasible. The effectiveness of the proposed method is supported by experimental results.
