Meeting on Control of Precision Systems |
Call for Papers The
3rd Meeting on the Control of Precision Systems will focus on new developments
in feedback control as applied to precision systems. We also encourage
presentations of a tutorial nature which elaborate principles essential
to achieving high performance in precision control systems.
The control of precision systems
encompasses a wide range of applications in high-speed, high-accuracy
manufacturing and automation. The growth of nanotechnology and nanoscale
manufacturing has further raised the positioning requirements for machine
designers. The performance of such systems, instruments, devices, and
processes depends intimately upon the innovative application of feedback
principles due to the large dynamic range of controlled variables and
the sensitivity to effects which might be ignorable in conventional systems.
This conference is intended to promote
a broader understanding of the principles and techniques applicable for
precision control, to highlight the challenges and achievements unique
to our field, to bring together specialists and practitioners from industry,
government, and academia for the exchange of ideas, and to identify topics
for further research. The conference schedule will include significant
unstructured time to allow for technical and social interactions.
- Contributed papers are invited in, but not limited
to, the following topics:
- Precision control of mechatronic systems
- System design and dynamic error budgeting
- Advances in sensors, actuators, processors,
and positioning systems
- Multi-axis modeling and uncertainty analyses
- Friction modeling, estimation, and control
- Command generation and feedforward design
- Case studies in precision mechatronic systems
