Abstract

ABSTRACTBecause friction is a phenomenon that is present in the vast majority of mechanical systems producing some unwanted effects such as tracking errors, limit cycles, and stick‐slip motion, friction model based compensation has been previously proposed. We present a simple adaptive friction compensator, developed from a simple friction model, that achieves the control objective (friction compensation). This simple model was effectively used to obtain a friction compensator with smooth terms avoiding the use of signum and absolute functions presented in previously reported works on friction compensation. Considering that the velocity is bound away from zero and using Lyapunov stability analysis, exponential stability of the closed loop system is shown; i.e., the tracking errors and the parameter estimation error converge exponentially to zero. Because our friction compensator is based on a simple friction model, numerical experiments using a more representative friction model are given to support our theoretical findings.
