• W2556059575 abstract "Newly emerging classes of next generation soft-smart actuators are set to have a huge impact on the fields of robotics, orthotics and prosthetics due to their lightweight, high-strain and muscle-like properties. Like muscle, these actuators can be used in multiple roles, e.g. both as actuators and brakes, due their variable compliance. One important class of soft actuator is the dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA). However, DEAs are extremely difficult to control due to their non-linear and time varying dynamics. A crucial step in the advancement of this technology is the development of techniques for systems level modelling and analysis, which is the focus of this thesis.In the first part of the thesis, a set of DEAs are identified and analysed using standard methods from the field of system identification, obtaining non-linear autoregressive with exogenous input (NARX) models. These provide a benchmark against which later methods are evaluated. The key novelty in this part is the development of NARX models of DEAs for use in non-linear frequency-domain analysis. This result provides insight for the first time into how a set of similarly fabricated DEAs vary in different ways.A further aspect of DEA behaviour is their unexplained time varying behaviour. The system identification approach used to identify NARX models of DEAs is in a convenient form such that it can be easily extended to cater for this time varying behaviour. There are however very few available methods for the frequency domain analysis of time varying systems. A novel method for time varying frequency domain analysis of NARX systems is developed in this work and applied to the DEAs. The analysis procedure is used to provide insight onhow the dynamic behaviour of DEAs change over time. In the second part of the thesis a novel approach to the joint structure detection and parameter estimation of NARX models is developed using a sparse Bayesian method. The Bayesian framework allows for the estimation of posterior distributions over model parameters, characterising the model uncertainty. Analytic solutions are found that describe model uncertainty in the frequency-domain as confidence bounds on both linear and higher order frequency response functions. The sparse Bayesian identification algorithm is applied to the DEA data sets and is used to give the first non-linear dynamic model of DEAs with uncertainty bounds plus the first description of DEA dynamics in the frequency-domain, again with uncertainty bounds." @default.
