Singh, Amit Kumar. "Human-Cantered Design Approaches in Mechatronics for Improved User Experience." Mathematical Statistician and Engineering Applications 70, no. 1 (January 31, 2021): 486–93. http://dx.doi.org/10.17762/msea.v70i1.2501.
Abstract:
In the rapidly evolving field of mechatronics, human-cantered design (HCD) approaches have gained significant attention as a means to enhance user experience. Mechatronics, which combines mechanical engineering, electronics, computer science, and control systems, aims to develop intelligent and interactive systems. However, the success of mechatronic systems relies not only on their technical functionalities but also on how well they align with users' needs and expectations. This abstract explores the significance of human-cantered design approaches in mechatronics and their potential to improve user experience.In the outcome, human-cantered design approaches play a crucial role in mechatronics for improving user experience. By involving users from the early stages, employing iterative design cycles, and considering usability and emotional factors, mechatronic systems can be developed to be more user-friendly, efficient, and engaging. The integration of HCD approaches leads to systems that align with users' needs, preferences, and expectations, ultimately resulting in improved user experience and increased user acceptance of mechatronic systems. As mechatronics continues to advance, the adoption of human-cantered design approaches will remain essential in ensuring the successful development and deployment of user-centric mechatronic systems.

Abstract:
Mechatronics engineering study programs were established at German universities approximately 15 years ago. Today at about 50 universities of applied sciences mechatronics education is offered in undergraduate and graduate courses as full programs, majors or minors. In 2005 the MECHATRONIK e.V. – the mechatronics association in Germany - published a recommendation for undergraduate and graduate education in mechatronics, which defines minimum requirements to mechatronics study programs. In this paper the mechatronics study programs of a number of German universities are analyzed and compared.

Abstract:
The advancement of mechatronic enabling technologies and the mechatronic design approach has resulted in sophisticated mechatronic systems. Automated mechatronic systems are becoming more complicated and more intelligent. Mechanical systems that enable the next generation of manufacturing systems will have whole new features and capabilities as a result of these modifications. Even basic monitoring has grown into self-optimizing performance in these gadgets. With the addition of bio-mechatronics and micro-mechatronics, the application fields of mechatronics have expanded. Bio or microcontroller-based applications are the focus of this publication, which aids researchers in building and testing control systems. Design considerations for mechatronic systems are addressed in this work. In order to implement more complicated control algorithms in an industrial setting, new controller design tools are required. The early evaluation of designs and the support of critical design choices may be made possible via the use of modelling and simulation technologies.

Abstract:
This study develops teaching materials for mechatronics in higher education. Industrial societies require numerous mechatronics engineers, and most technical universities provide mechatronics exercises in their curriculums. However, it is difficult for teachers and students to modify and improve the mechatronic teaching materials because the provided materials are finished products. Therefore, a simple and inexpensive educational system is developed to overcome the disadvantages of the finished products. In this paper, an experimental apparatus is proposed for mechatronics education, and a practical example is presented that involves learning control methods, sensors, actuators, and mechanics.

Abstract:
Mechatronics is a term created to represent the total technology of mechanisms and electronics. Mechanical engineering dealing with mechanisms has a very long history. Its recent organic combination with electronics has certainly brought about a striking advance in the functions and performance of machines. This striking advance lay in the background of the creation of the new term “mechatronics”. The initiation of mechatronics was no doubt due to the advent of NC machine tools. NC machine tools were accomplished by fusing mechanisms with servo unit drives and computer techniques. The technique using them was somewhat innovative in that servo units were driven by digital computer signals. Mechatronics is considered as essential to develop peripheral machines for computers such as plotters, printers and magnetic memories, and as an application to wire bonding machines and X-ray exposing machines in semiconductor manufacturing processes. For such machines, increasingly higher speed and accuracy are likely to be required, and engineering developments are actively underway accordingly. This special issue was planned to present the current status and recent trends of mechatronic research arid development in Japan. The contents can be classified into three categories. First, bearings and actuators as basic mechatronic elements are featured. For bearings, trends of research and development on magnetic types which permit ultrahigh-speed rotation and operation in vacuum in particular were chosen. For actuators, recent examples of research and development on ultrasonic motors, linear motors and piezoelectric actuators were selected. Second, this issue presents examples of development in the area of X-ray steppers, memory medium handling systems, and polygonal scanners. These are frontier mechatronic systems and the descriptions will be of some help in recognizing future problems in development. Finally, some studies from the point of view of force-torque control were selected. While conventional mechatronic control studies are primarily concerned with position and speed control, force-torque control is expected to become an important trend. I hope that this special issue will be helpful in recognizing the current situation and future trends of mechatronics, and contribute to future developments in this area.

Abstract:
The design of systems requires the integration of data from different fields (mechanical computer-aided design, electrical computer-aided design, automation, embedded software,.). The multi-technological character of Mechatronics makes the design of systems more complex. In this context a general knowledge of Mechatronics and Mechatronic products is necessary. The design problem of a mechatronic product requires the analysis of its structural, technological, and functional complexity. This paper presents an approach to the design of Mechatronic systems. This requires the characterization of the different types of the complexity of a product before presenting the design methodology, the modeling, and the simulation tools used in the different design phases.

Abstract:
This article discusses the main issues of artificial intelligence and its implementation in the daily life of people in the form of control systems of mechatronic systems.
Due to the intensive implementation of the latest achievements of scientific and technical progress, a new element base, new technologies for implementing the principles and laws of creating artificial intelligence appeared. Mechatronics is an independent fundamental technical science as the basis of modern technological equipment.
Mechatronics is one of the most promising engineering fields, which is a combination of interdisciplinary engineering courses such as mechanics, electrical engineering, electronics, robotics, computer science, control systems and product development. Therefore, in the modern conditions of technological development, industrial enterprises, including mining enterprises, are more in need of specialists with the skills of managing complex technological equipment and, at the same time, electropneumatics, electrohydraulics and electromechanics. In order to understand modern automation and mechatronics systems, one must not only have knowledge of their components, but also the ability to set up and adjust the operation of these systems. With the rapid development of scientific computing, artificial intelligence technology is widely used in mechatronics. The article describes the connection and combination of mechatronics engineering and artificial intelligence technology.
The methods of analysis, comparative analysis, and analytical research are aimed at determining the rationality of the combination of mechatronic engineering and artificial intelligence technology. The article discusses how mechatronics engineering using artificial intelligence technology can meet the development needs of modern society.

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science 214, no. 12 (December 1, 2000): 1485–501. http://dx.doi.org/10.1243/0954406001523434.
Abstract:
The paper presents the results of a study on using mechatronics to enhance the performance and reliability of small electric powered screwdrivers (SEPS). A mechatronic solution to control the final tightening torque replacing the mechanical clutch of a purely electromechanical SEPS is presented. Torque estimation methods based on motor armature current measurements are integrated with an SEPS driven by a direct current motor. Strategies for controlling the final tightening torque of the screw fastening process are developed. The control strategies are tested in accordance with the ISO 5393 standard. It is shown that the mechatronic controller gives comparable performance to a SEPS with a mechanical clutch. The mechatronic solution has the advantage of reduced cost, size and complexity. The paper demonstrates the application of low-cost mechatronics in industrial power tools.

Abstract:
Mechatronics as a science is a synergic combination of mechanical engineering, electronic control, and software design in product development and manufacturing processes. To understand how the field of knowledge that incorporates mechatronics in innovative products, given that it is not in itself a basic engineering discipline but an integration of fields of knowledge, has advanced, it was developed a bibliometric and qualitative study through systematic review with an analytical framework for the establishment of variables to subsidize the construction of the selected theoretical body. The results and conclusions of the sampled publications show that mechatronics performs one of the principal roles in innovation due to the multidisciplinary integration that the scope of innovation in product engineering is propitiating. The study classified five global scenarios: practical approaches aimed at product development, research that studies curricula and education in engineering, studies involving components of a mechatronic system, use of artificial intelligence, and methodologies for designing mechatronic systems. In addition to underscoring that the use of the term innovation associated with mechatronics in a large proportion of the publications extrapolates the operational level, characterizing an attribution to the term that is always associated with the applications, ramifications, and perspectives that the respective product, design, robot, or system could offer to the market or future research. Similarly, it was found that the results of many publications associate the term innovation with a return on investments or operational costs and emphasize the advantages of using the technology for commercial ends.

Abstract:
Actuators are components of motion control systems in which mechatronics plays a crucial role. They can be regarded as a paradigmatic case in which this mechatronic approach is required. Furthermore, actuator technologies can get new sources of inspiration from nature (bioinspiration). Biological systems are the result of an evolutionary process and show excellent levels of performance. In this paper, we analyse the actuator as a bioinspired mechatronic system through analogies between mechatronics and biological actuating mechanisms that include hierarchical control of actuators, switched control of power flow and some transduction principles. Firstly, some biological models are introduced as a source of inspiration for setting up both actuation principles and control technologies. Secondly, a particular actuator technology, the travelling wave ultrasonic motor, is taken to illustrate this approach. Eventually, the last section draws some conclusions and points out future directions.

Application of mechatronic principles can be presumed within the framework of this development. An analysis of the current state of reclining seating furniture, which uses mechanical and electromechanical positioning mechanisms, is conducted in order to formulate possible fields of applying mechatronics. The analysis defines individual ergonomic parameters which are influenced in reclining of seating furniture. This analysis is used as a basis for formulating a hypothesis describing potential development fields of applying mechatronics in home seating furniture.

Abstract:
Recently, mechatronics as a self-contained discipline has undoubtedly shaped the development of technical systems. Mechatronics stands for the close interaction of mechanics, electronics, control engineering and software engineering. Due to the advancement of information and communication technologies, the functionality of mechatronic systems will go far beyond current standards. The increasing complexity requires a consistent comprehension of the tasks between all the developers involved. Especially during the early design phases, the communication and cooperation between the engineers is necessary to design a first overall system model. In addition, reusing of once successfully implemented solution knowledge is becoming increasingly important related to the overall context of the triangle of tension formed by time, cost and quality. In our work, we will present an approach for the identification of reusable controller strategies for the system design of advanced mechatronic systems.

Abstract:
The article discusses the main provisions and the role of mechatronics in production in agriculture. A review of current and promising mechatronic systems for use in agriculture is carried out. It is noted that the use of scientific and technological advances in the field of mechatronics opens up new opportunities for solving multidisciplinary problems, and also makes a person dependent on technical means. The current state and world trends in the application and development of mechatronic systems in the field of agricultural production are investigated. The needs for the use of mechatronic systems and modules in the conditions of agricultural enterprises are analyzed and the problems associated with their implementation and use are identified. The purpose of creating such complexes is to achieve a combination of high productivity and at the same time flexibility of the technical and technological environment due to the possibility of its reconfiguration, which will ensure the competitiveness and high quality of products in world markets. In modern mechatronic systems, to ensure a high quality of implementation of complex and precise movements, it is necessary to apply intelligent control methods. To create intelligent systems, it is necessary to provide flexible interaction of components within the system and with the outside world. Current trends in the use of mechatronic systems and modules in agricultural production are determined. As the scope of application of mechatronic systems expands and international scientific and technical relations expand, it becomes more and more important to actively exchange new production and information technologies between their creators and users, between various groups of consumers and developers (research centers, enterprises of various forms of ownership, universities ). These forms of cooperation are implemented within the framework of international technology transfer. The development of mechatronics as an interdisciplinary scientific and technical field, in addition to obvious technical and technological difficulties, also raises a number of new organizational and economic problems.

Abstract:
Starting with some general and historical perspective, mechatronics is placed in the technological field map as a multidisciplinary discipline. The considered advantages of mechatronic systems are exposed from the human perspective, which enables the consideration of the social impact of this technological discipline. Due to the multidisciplinary character of mechatronics, the integration issues including synergetic effects consider both geometrical and functional aspects. The same reason provides a very large variety of different solutions to fulfill a certain functionality. Choosing an appropriate solution for a specific application is done using systematic methods which shape this problem to an optimization problem. General statements are illustrated with different application examples.

"Linear extended state observer-based control of active lubrication for active hydrostatic journal bearing by monitoring bearing clearance." Industrial Lubrication and Tribology 71, no. 7 (September 9, 2019): 869–84. http://dx.doi.org/10.1108/ilt-09-2017-0263.
Abstract:
Purpose This paper’s aim is modeling and simulation of an advanced controller design for a novel mechatronics system that consists of a hydrostatic journal bearing with servo control. The proposed mechatronic system has more worth in tribology applications as compared to the traditional hydrostatic bearing which has limited efficiency and poor performance because of lower stiffness and load-carrying capacity. The proposed mechatronic system takes advantage of active lubrication to improve stiffness, rotor’s stability and load-carrying capacity. Design/methodology/approach The current work proposes extended state observer-based controller to control the active lubrication for hydrostatic journal bearing. The advantage of using observer is to estimate unknown state variables and lumped effects because of unmodeled dynamics, model uncertainties, and unknown external disturbances. The effectiveness of the proposed mechatronic system is checked against the traditional hydrostatic bearing. Findings Proposed mechatronics active hydrostatic journal bearing system is checked against traditional hydrostatic journal bearing. It is found that novel active hydrostatic journal bearing with servo control has good tribology performance factors such as stiffness, less rotor vibration, no wear and friction under starting conditions and high load-carrying capacity under different conditions of spindle speed, temperature, initial oil pressure and external disturbance. The result shows that proposed mechatronics system has more worth in rotary tribology applications. Originality/value The current manuscript designs a novel active hydrostatic journal bearing system with servo control. The mathematical model has advantages in term of estimating unknown state variables and lumped effects because of unmodeled dynamics, model uncertainties and unknown external disturbances. The result shows improvement in dynamic characteristics of a hydrostatic journal bearing under different dynamic conditions.

Abstract:
This paper presents a new mechatronics laboratory for students in the 5th semester of the mechatronics degree course at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. It is the aim of this teaching event to sharpen the appreciation of synergy effects in the development of mechatronic systems among the students. Despite of the great freedom in the development process, a concept has been evolved, which causes low running costs due to the combination of a model kit with rapid prototyping methods. A first pilot study of the laboratory starting in the winter term 2014 has shown that the students approach the task despite of the high level of difficulty with fun and dedication, especially because of the wide solution space which was unknown for them from previous lectures.

Abstract:
Waste management is an essential component of urban management. As a waste solution, waste management is critical. The goal of this research is to develop a waste management database that is coupled with a mechatronic robot system. Compiling and gathering data on the sorts of garbage found in Indonesia is the starting point for this research. Indonesian waste is classified into six groups: cardboard, paper, metal, plastic, medical, and organic. The total images of the six groups are estimated at 1880 pictures. According to this picture database, Artificial Intelligence (AI) training was used to create the classification system. In the final AI process, the test method was performed using DenseNet121, DenseNet169, and DenseNet201. Testing using artificial intelligence DenseNet201 across 40 epochs yields the best 92,7% accuracy rate. Simultaneously with Artificial Intelligence testing, a mechatronic system is created as a direct implementation of the Artificial Intelligence output model. A four-servo arm robot with dc motor wheel mobility is included in the mechatronic system. According to these findings, the Indonesian waste database can be categorized correctly using Artificial Intelligence and the mechatronics system. This higher accuracy of the artificial intelligence model may be used to create a waste-sorting robot prototype.

Abstract:
<p>Presently, the move towards a more complex and multidisciplinary system development is increasingly important in order to understand and strengthen engineering approaches for the systems in the engineering field. This will lead to the effective and successful management of these systems. The scientific developments in computer engineering, simulation and modeling, electromechanical motion tools, power electronics, computers and informatics, micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), microprocessors, and distributed system platforms (DSPs) have brought new challenges to industry and academia. Important aspects of designing advanced mechatronic products include modeling, simulation, analysis, virtual prototyping, and visualization. Competition on a global market includes the adaptation of new technology to produce better, cheaper, and smarter, scalable, multifunctional goods. Since the application area for developing such systems is very broad, including, for example, automotive, aeronautics, robotics or consumer products, and much more, there is also the need for flexible and adaptable methods to develop such systems. These dynamic interdisciplinary systems are called mechatronic systems, which refer to a system that possess synergistic integration of Software, electronic, and mechanical systems. To approach the complexity inherent in the aspects of the discipline, different methods and techniques of development and integration are coming from the disciplines involved. This paper will provide a brief review of the history, current developments and the future trends of mechatronics in general view.</p>

Abstract:
Abstract Result of the Scientific Concerns from the Doctoral School of Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics of the Valahia Târgovişte University and the research project of INCDMTM “INTEGRATED MECHATRONIC SYSTEM FOR HUMAN SECURITY INSURANCE FOR THE SAFETY OF OBJECTIVES AND INTERVENTIONS IN RISK - MISO ZONES” (project ID: PED-2016-0924, code PN-III-P2-2.1-PED-2016-0707) in the field of robotics, the scientific work “Intelligent Platform with BLDC Drives and Microsystems for Mechatronic Applications in Security and Surveillance “ is the completion of the experimental testing of controlling the movement of a security and surveillance robot, as part of the Ph.D. industrial thesis “Studies, research and contributions on the development of a smart mecatronic robot for security and surveillance applications”. The scientific work ultimately results in an intelligent, original platform that will be used to control the movement of the robot. The platform allows communication between the latest generation BLDC engine (embedded in the drive wheel) and it’s controller and a computerized microsystem that will handle the displacement controls and will also provide the link with the human operator through any remote guidance system that is used. Although designed for an intelligent security and surveillance mechatronic robot, this platform is proven to be extensively versatile for any other type of robot or mobile platform that uses BLDC wheel-drive engines. The project harmoniously combines Mechatronics, Cyber-MixMeatronic, Integronics and Artificial Intelligence into an Intelligent Interoperable Construction.

Abstract:
The “integration” in mechatronics does not concern only the technology but it implies an integration of design methods as well. There is a need for methods to model the functionality in a homogeneous way independently of implementation technology. Interdisciplinary knowledge, methodology and reference models are pointed out as factors that improve the design work of a mechatronic system, and a solution for the methodology and reference models was proposed.

Abstract:
AbstractTo support the concurrent design processes of mechatronic subsystems, unified mechatronics modeling and cooperative body–brain coevolutionary synthesis are developed. In this paper, both body-passive physical systems and brain-active control systems can be represented using the bond graph paradigm. Bond graphs are combined with genetic programming to evolve low-level building blocks into systems with high-level functionalities including both topological configurations and parameter settings. Design spaces of coadapted mechatronic subsystems are automatically explored in parallel for overall design optimality. A quarter-car suspension system case study is provided. Compared with conventional design methods, semiactive suspension designs with more creativity and flexibility are achieved through this approach.

Abstract:
The main contribution of this article is creating synergy between subjects; this means that students use the same graphical tool in several subjects. So far, the bond graph has not been used in control theory, but it is the “native language” of mechatronics engineers, so we would like to introduce it into the teaching of control theory. The bond graph method is proposed as a novel teaching method to teach mechatronics subjects in the paper. The bond graph is a graphical alternative to ordinary differential equations from a mathematical standpoint. Traditionally, control theory employs ordinary differential equations, as they are familiar to control theorists. However, mathematically, both approaches are equivalent but require a slightly different approach in their application. This article highlights the mathematical similarities between the two approaches while emphasizing the distinctions in graphical representation. Another contribution is that the PID and sliding mode controller are represented using the bond graph method. In the meantime, through the use of practical examples, we effectively illustrate how the same problem can be solved using either approach. In the training materials, the PID controller and an adaptive robust sliding mode controller (ARSMC) with the bond graph are utilized as examples to demonstrate synergy in mechatronics. Finally, we present proof that mechatronic engineers achieve superior outcomes when utilizing the bond graph approach, based on test results from undergraduate students.

Abstract:
Educational mechatronics aims to be the evolution of educational robotics so it can be identified as a part of the educational paradigm of the university, its academic spaces, infrastructure, and practical activities. The fundamental goal of this framework is to develop the knowledge and skills that the new industrial world, inspired by the latest technologies, necessitates. This work proposes the modular design of a robotic arm aligned with the extended educational mechatronics conceptual framework by designing and implementing educational tools to develop the knowledge and skills required for Industry 4.0. The 3D-printed, low-cost robotic arm is designed to be used in a motion capture system for robotics applications to build kinematics concepts for a learning process. In particular, the instructional design to build the mechatronic concept of a robot workspace is carried out considering the three learning levels: concrete, representational, and abstract. The above demonstrates how the proposed pedagogical methodology can impact Industry 4.0 in the small- and medium-sized enterprises’ context.

Abstract:
According to the traditional design method, in order to manufacture a mechatronic system, from the initial idea, the designer designs the mechanical system by CAD (Computer-Aided-Design), this system is then fabricated, finally, the system will be tested on the working condition. If the system does not work properly, the design of the system will be changed, and hardware is re-manufactured. This method is more time-consuming and cost for repairing and manufacturing hardware repeatedly. To save design time and reduce the cost of the manufacturing hardware as well as to optimize the design process of a mechatronics system, this paper introduces an engineering model it is called a virtual prototyping technology which allows optimizing the designs on the computer before manufacturing the test-bed system. Based on the concept of the system working, the mechatronics system is designed on SOLIDWORKS and then exported to the ADAMS software (Automated Dynamic Analysis of Mechanical System). The flexible element is also modeling and analysis in ANSYS software then exported to ADAMS. The integrated simulation in ADAMS environment is executed to investigate the dynamic behaviors of the mechanical system and design will be adjusted. Virtual prototyping model will then be exported to MATLAB/Simulink to develop the control strategies. Co-simulation results in some contexts to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed mechatronic system before implementing on test-bed

Abstract:
One of the major educators’ challenges is to teach the theoretical lessons with practical examples that can be taught in the classroom or teaching laboratories. The application of these examples will face a major problem for students in engineering: the difficulty of understanding and seeing how a mechatronic device works in everyday life. This requires the use of tools that enable the construction of different low cost prototypes to assist in student learning. Another challenge to educators is the need to motivate students during the lessons and to present models that students can make and develop on their own. Within this context this paper presents a pedagogic proposition based on the use of LEGO Mindstorms kits to teach practical lab activities in a mechatronics engineering course. The objective is to develop teaching methodologies with the use of these LEGO kits in order to motivate the students and also to promote a higher interdisciplinarity, by proposing projects that unify different disciplines. Thus, the paper is divided into three parts according to the educational experiences implemented in the course of mechatronics engineering at the Federal University of Uberlândia, Brazil. The first part presents the use of the kits in robotics discipline. The second part presents the use of the virtual kits in the Computer Aided Design discipline with zero-cost. The third part presents a multi-disciplinary project EDROM in mechatronics using LEGO kits.

Abstract:
Mechatronics systems, a macroscopic domain, aim at producing highly efficient engineering platforms, with applications in a variety of industries and situations. On the other hand, quantum technologies, a microscopic domain, are emerging as a promising avenue to speed up computations and perform more efficient sensing. Recently, these two fields have started to merge in a novel area: quantum mechatronics. In this review article, we describe some developments produced so far in this respect, including early steps into quantum robotics, macroscopic actuators via quantum effects, as well as educational initiatives in quantum mechatronics.
