1. Improving Academic Writing Skills for IEEE Transactions
Tuesday, 16 February 2021 9:00 PM CET (8:00 AM EST, 2:00 PM CET)
Presenter: Wen Cao
Aston University, IE-13 Chair, UK
Abstract: This webinar is intended for junior and early-career researchers who are new to the IEEE Transaction publications. It will deal with the publication process for the IEEE Transactions with a focus on the field of electrical power engineering. The speaker will share his experience of academic writing as an author, reviewer and editor, as well as his personal views on how to prepare for good quality research and innovations, and then high-quality manuscripts for IEEE Transactions. It will be followed by a Q&A session. You are free to bring your papers and discuss anything specific with the publications in IEEE Transactions.
2. Fast and Precise Motion Control for Industrial Positioning Devices with Strain Wave Gearing
Friday, 19 February 2021 10:00 PM JST (8:00 AM EST, 2:00 PM CET)
Presenter: Makoto Iwasaki Nagoya Institute of Technology, Japan
Abstract: The webinar talk presents a practical motion controller design technique for precision positioning devices including strain wave gearing, e.g. industrial multi-axis robots, precision rotation stages, etc. Since HarmonicDrive® gears (HDGs), a typical strain wave gearing, inherently possess nonlinear properties known as Angular Transmission Errors (ATEs) due to structural errors and flexibility in the mechanisms, the ideal positioning accuracy corresponding to the apparent resolution cannot be essentially attained at the output of gearing in the devices. In addition, mechanisms with HDGs generally excite resonant vibrations due to the periodical disturbance by ATEs, especially in the condition that the frequency of synchronous components of ATE corresponds to the critical mechanical resonant frequency. The seminar, therefore, focuses on the accurate settling and vibration suppression in positioning, in order to improve the performance deteriorations by applying model-based feedforward and feedback control approaches. In the compensator design, under the assumption that the accurate
