Impedance Control Approach on Leg Motion Speed Variation on Soft Surface Interaction
Authors: Mohd Nafis Wan Lezaini Wan , Irawan Addie , Razul Razali Akhtar
Published: July 2019

This article presents the leg speed variation control using impedance control approach on soft surface displacement motion. One of the challenging fields of designing a legged robot that can be equipped with adaptation ability is it dynamic control which majorly involved in interaction with the environment. Numerous researchers have been widely implemented impedance control as dynamic interaction but less emphasized in adapting soft terrain. Most of the impedance control implementation on the legged robot on rough terrain emphasized on position changes, and it may not practical for legged robot navigate on the soft terrain. Soft terrain contains different ground stiffness and medium viscosities. Thus, this study has taken the initiative to propose a speed variation control on a robot’s leg by using a force-based impedance control approach to increase the leg energy exchanges specifically on foot placement. The proposed control was validated in actual robot’s leg, and performances show that the energy in the leg increases as the velocity of leg motion increase due to increase in force feedback while maintaining the shape of the leg motion.

Simulated Kalman Filter (SKF) is a population-based optimization algorithm which exploits the estimation capability of Kalman filter to search for a solution in a continuous search space. The SKF algorithm only capable to solve numerical optimization problems which involve continuous search space. Some problems, such as routing and scheduling, involve binary or discrete search space. At present, there are three modifications to the original SKF algorithm in solving combinatorial optimization problems. Those modified algorithms are binary SKF (BSKF), angle modulated SKF (AMSKF), and distance evaluated SKF (DESKF). These three combinatorial SKF algorithms use binary encoding to represent the solution to a combinatorial optimization problem. This paper introduces the latest version of distance evaluated SKF which uses state encoding, instead of binary encoding, to represent the solution to a combinatorial problem. The algorithm proposed in this paper is called state-encoded distance evaluated SKF (SEDESKF) algorithm. Since the original SKF algorithm tends to converge prematurely, the distance is handled differently in this study. To control and exploration and exploitation of the SEDESKF algorithm, the distance is normalized. The performance of the SEDESKF algorithm is compared against the existing combinatorial SKF algorithm based on a set of Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP).

Published: July 2019

The overall purpose of this paper is to provide an introductory survey in the area of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) particularly its utilization in autonomous vehicle or more specifically in self-driving cars, especially after the release of commercial semi-autonomous car like the Tesla vehicles as well as the Google Waymo vehicle. Before we begin diving into the concept of SLAM, we need to understand the importance of SLAM and problems that expand to the various methods developed by numerous researchers to solve it. Thus, in this paper we will start by giving the general concept behind SLAM, followed by sharing details of its different categories and the various methods that form the SLAM function in today’s autonomous vehicles; which can solve the SLAM problem. These methods are the current trends that are widely focused in the research community in producing solutions to the SLAM problem; not only in autonomous vehicle but in the robotics field as well. Next, we will compare each of these methods in terms of its pros and cons before concluding the paper by looking at future SLAM challenges.

Published: July 2019

This study presents the development of robotic arm with computer vision functionalities to recognise the objects with different colours, pick up the nearest target object and place it into particular location. In this paper, the overview of the robotic arm system is first presented. Then, the design of five-degrees of freedom (5-DOF) robotic arm is introduced, followed by the explanation of the image processing technique used to recognize the objects with different colours and obstacle detection. Next, the forward kinematic modelling of the robotic arm using Denavit-Hartenberg algorithm and solving the inverse kinematic of the robotic arm using modified flower pollination algorithm (MFPA) are interpreted. The result shows that the robotic arm can pick the target object accurately and place it in its particular place successfully. The concern on user safety is also been taken into consideration where the robotic arm will stop working when the user hand (obstacle) is detected and resume its process when there is no obstacle.

Authors: Soong Low Ee , Ong Pauline , Yee Low Cheng
Published: July 2019

In path planning for mobile robot, classical Q-learning algorithm requires high iteration counts and longer time taken to achieve convergence. This is due to the beginning stage of classical Q-learning for path planning consists of mostly exploration, involving random direction decision making. This paper proposed the addition of distance aspect into direction decision making in Q-learning. This feature is used to reduce the time taken for the Q-learning to fully converge. In the meanwhile, random direction decision making is added and activated when mobile robot gets trapped in local optima. This strategy enables the mobile robot to escape from local optimal trap. The results show that the time taken for the improved Q-learning with distance guiding to converge is longer than the classical Q-learning. However, the total number of steps used is lower than the classical Q-learning.

Published: July 2019

Obtaining a good experimental modal data is essential in modal analysis in order to ensure accurate extraction of modal parameters. The parameters are compared with other extraction methods to ascertain its consistency and validity. This paper demonstrates the extraction of modal parameters using various identification algorithms in Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) on a 3D scaled model of a 3-storey aluminium structure. Algorithms such as Frequency Domain Decomposition (FDD), Enhanced Frequency Domain Decomposition (EFDD) and Stochastic Subspace Identification (SSI) are applied in this study to obtain modal parameters. The model test structure is fabricated of aluminium and assembled using bolts and nuts. Accelerometers were used to collect the responses and the commercial post processing software was used to obtain the modal parameters. The resulting natural frequencies and mode shapes using FDD method are then compared with other OMA parametric technique such as EFDD and SSI algorithm by comparing the natural frequencies and Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC). Comparison of these techniques will be shown to justify the validity of each technique used and hence confirming the accuracy of the measurement taken.

On Inequality of Rights in Agricultural Land Privatization
Authors: Aleksandrovich Mayboroda Victor
Published: July 2019

The article examines the institution of agricultural land privatization. Considering the dynamics of modern legislation, considerable attention is paid to the historical overview of the development of regulatory developments in this institution. Currently, due to uncertain meaning of the term "privatization", the author emphasized its semantic content in regulating land relations in general and in connection with the turnover of agricultural land, in particular through the application of content analysis methods in normative materials. In addition, the land purchase was compared with certain provisions of foreign legal systems. The study has led to conclusions regarding the need for formation of independent law enforcement practices for privatization of agricultural land for agricultural use. The author suggests using this term if there is a regional norm on privatization. At the same time, if the regional legislation establishes the date for privatization commencement beyond an obvious planning horizon and does not allow the use of this particular institution, the author offers to transform public property into private using the institution to purchase land granted on a lease basis. The current application of the institute of public land privatization for agricultural use lacks the opposition of semantic burden of privatization to other forms of transformation of public possession into private property. The absence of such opposition in a law enforcement practice provides an opportunity for confusion of privatization and land purchase when considering specific disputes. Today, those participating in privatization, i.e. persons who can potentially purchase publicly owned lands, are in unequal conditions with regard to other methods of acquiring public lands, including through purchase in case of a bona fide rent. The study itself aims to understand the results of public land transformation into private land based on a priori provision on the need to form a competitive environment for the existence of various forms of ownership through economic regulation methods, avoiding the provision of legal advantages to individual forms of ownership.Â Â Â

Authors: Anatolievich Ostanin Vladimir , Aleksandrovich Kosenko Viktor , Vladimirovna Glukhova Zlata
Published: July 2019

In the context of globalization and internationalization of economic relations, there is an active development of customs services, in which regulation of a certain part of the customs service moves to the international level. The quality of services provided by the customs authorities influences not only the time needed to complete customs formalities, but also the financial risks and costs of all participants involved in foreign economic activity. The increasing foreign trade turnover requires improvement of the movement and processing mechanisms of goods and services across the customs border of the Russian Federation, which necessitates the active implementation of new services and technologies of customs clearance. Customs service is understood not only as a public service performed by public authorities, but also as a specific type of activity aimed at facilitating the implementation of foreign economic operations carried out by commercial organizations of the customs sphere.

In recent times, practicality of web applications has become more reliant upon big-data orientated materials such 4K videos, hi-def. resolution images, lossless audios and massive texts. Structured Query Languages (SQL) faces compatibility issues with large scale databases. Because of this data storage problem, NoSQL databases are used for storing big-data. NoSQL databases have been recently gaining traction with many options such MongoDB, CouchDB, Redis and Apache Cassandra. One of the major restrictions companies, enterprises and developers encounter during developing an application is multiplicative cost of building a native programing across different platforms. Besides, network Function Virtualization (NFV) plays a vital role for providing services for utilizing such applications in larger and more effective scale. Hence, in this paper, we discussed our main motivation behind selecting Iconic Framework, a hybrid system for rapid development real-time application based on Firebase in the NFV environment cooperating with Mobile Edge Computing (MEC).

Published: July 2019

The article is devoted to the study of professional training of future designers. The concepts of "competence", "professional competence" in the research of specialists are revealed. According to the authors, higher education is not a privilege, not the lot of the elected, but not a set of basic knowledge and skills. The diploma of higher education does not certify the identity or citizenship and not the rights and freedoms of the individual, but only the level of qualification in the specialty that requires fundamental scientific training. The system of higher education, unlike educational organizations, provides citizens with the special knowledge, skills and abilities required to replace well-defined places in the system of social division of labor. There are many professions in demand in the labor market and vital to society, the mastery of which requires training at the University and allows the individual to fully realize their abilities. The creation of a comfortable environment in higher education, helping young people to understand that in the pursuit of self-realization and achievement of success in life should be guided not by the prevailing stereotypes, and their own desires and inclinations, is a necessary condition for the successful professional development of the individual graduate.

Published: July 2019

Controlling the non-linear dynamics of the quad-copter has stimulated many control engineers to investigate & design the variety of controllers in order to control and stabilize the various aspects of quad copter such as the attitude, altitude, heading, xy position and even in trajectory following in the presence of disturbance. This is because of the quad-copter’s application and importance in the variety of fields such as military, rescue, agriculture, surveillance, investigation, etc. Altitude control & stabilization problem of the quad-copter is the main focus of this research study. A dynamic and predictive controller is designed for the said problem based on Model predictive controller. In order to deal with the uncertainties & dynamics of the model during the flight operation and to ensure the robustness for the designed system, the sliding mode control technique is presented. Proportional-Integral-Derivative controller is also implemented for the system to make a comparative analysis with the rest of the designed controllers. Apart from controlling & stabilizing the altitude, these controllers are also capable for the trajectory tracking of the quad-copter. The six degree of freedom coupled model of quad-copter is taken into account and the same is then de-coupled for quad-copter hovering. In order to confirm the asymptotically stable state of the system, stability analysis of the proposed controller design is also done. The designed system is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK and also the comparison for robust and predictive controller is presented in order to depict the degree of potency of the proposed controller.

Published: July 2019

The process of growth of corporations and groups of companies has slowed down in Russia since 2008-2009 but has not stopped. Nowadays, a group of companies is usually a poly-industry organization with the presence of none-core companies and companies of the social bloc that is often the result of a trade-off of large business and the government. The task of bringing out the groups of companies of the social bloc into the break-even zone in Russia became acute after 2014 due to a reduction in reserves of profitability growth in the main profitable blocs. It is very difficult for the management of the group of companies to differentiate external risks, some complex system and accidental internal factors of activity of a relatively large number of economic entities and not to lose control of the group as a whole. In the authors' opinion, the development of a methodology for informational support of policy decisions regarding the architecture of a group of companies can be based on well-known concepts (the concept of strategic management) and approaches (systematic and process approaches). Then, the management of the group of companies is presented in the form of a list of competencies with assigned managerial functions of information support of different levels developed by the authors and presented in the paper.

Authors: Petrovich Sedykh Arkadiy , Nikolaevna Ivanishcheva Olga , Vyacheslavovna Koreneva Anastasiya , Vitalyevna Ryzhkova Inna
Published: July 2019

The article aims at analyzing the actual status of the "linguistic persona" category in the modern linguistic studies both in Russia and abroad. It is shown that the anthropocentric paradigm dominates in modern scientific knowledge. A linguistic persona is viewed as a certain type of linguistic identity functioning within the specific ways to exchange communicative information. The epistemology of scientific approaches and research concepts is regarded in the personological way. Universal and national and cultural ways of a person’s verbalization are associated with a certain type of categorization of reality. The prospects of studying ways to verbalize the linguistic identity are viewed within the scope of the comprehensive analysis of communicative behavior based on the interdisciplinary approach. Using this method allows separating additional parameters of a linguistic persona of any type. The elements of the institutional linguistic persona are reviewed.

Findings: Introduction of changes into regulatory legal acts will stimulate identification of boundaries of settlements, establishment of boundaries of the land plots, which are situated on inter-settlement territories, but have address reference points of settlements; and vice versa, the boundaries of some settlements comprise land plots, which are located on the territories of other categories. It is a difficult process of ordering of the state cadastral registration of boundaries of settlements. This process is basic and principally important for the execution of documents for strategic planning of a municipality development and, generally, for further effective development of rural territories. Applications/Improvements: Boundary delimitation of land plots, establishment of boundaries of settlements, determination of the legal status of lands will have an impact on the investment policy, which contributes to social and economic development of territories, to the development of agricultural businesses, thus attracting labour resources and raising the social standard of living of rural population. Consequently, it will lead to sustainable development of rural territories of the Russian Federation.Â Â Â

The research subject of this article is the professional vocabulary used by the Arkhangelsk Pomors that has not been thoroughly studied yet. This article aims to fully describe the social and cultural specifics of the linguistic consciousness revealed in the social dialect of coast-dwellers (the Pomors) and their "cultural heirs", sailors and fishermen of North Arkhangelsk. The material source is the professional vocabulary and recorded oral speech of the social dialect used by coast-dwellers and documented in the three-volume dictionary of the popular-colloquial speech of Arkhangelsk. The article also considers such ambiguous terms as professional vocabulary, the Pomors and linguistic consciousness.The authors of the article have used the integrative approach to material analysis: cognitive, sociolinguistic and linguistic. The dominant analysis was chosen as the main research method. Notional dominants are understood as mental structures of consciousness that correlate with group values and regulate interpretative activities of the Arkhangelsk Pomors in the process of nominating real-life objects.The notional dominants of the Pomor social and cultural linguistic consciousness are as follows: reality specification, respect for professional experience and labor as a need, setting for the figurative perception of reality, etc. It is proved that intentional modality is a specific modal component of the Pomor linguistic consciousness.The research has established that the knowledge connected with linguistic means is socially significant since it marks peculiar features of the linguistic consciousness typical of the social dialect. Sailors and fishermen formed the linguistic world-image correlated with social and cultural perception and interpretation.The authors of the article have revealed and described such concepts as LABOR, MAN and NATURE associated with the basic concept of the Pomor social dialect â€“ SEA.The authors have also specified cognitively prominent levels of the Pomor linguistic consciousness.Â Â

The metatheoretical study of the tourism system of the Volgograd Region of the Russian Federation made it possible to determine the system characteristics of tourist relations of the region. Currently, an excursion type of tourism, in particular, war-historical and theological ones, is the main one in the region; this type is organized by two types of tourism products: tours (overnight) and excursions (without staying for the night). The focused interview with an expert group revealed the components and elements of the tourism product "excursion tour", which were grouped and listed in a questionnaire to assess the importance of each component and each element of the tourism product among consumers. 332 people divided into 6 age-sex groups took part in the survey. The survey results enable to form a methodology for the integrated assessment of regional tourism products: average estimates of the importance of each component and element of the tourism product for each group of respondents have been calculated; all the elements of the tourism product have been divided into two types (impression-forming and consumption-covering), to which essentially different evaluation scales are applicable.Â Â
