(Figure \ref{fig:position_terminology}) \item \textbf{Repeatability}: Repeatability describes the variation between results. (Figure \ref{fig:position_terminology}) \item \textbf{Resolution}: The resolution of a system is equal to the smallest incremental step that can be made (Figure \ref{fig:position_resolution}) \item \textbf{Stability}: The stability of a system is the maximum deviation from a constant reference value over time. The stability is always related to the time frame taken into account. (Figure \ref{fig:position_stability}) \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/position_terminology.png} \caption{\label{fig:position_terminology}Accuracy and Repeatability} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/position_resolution.png} \caption{\label{fig:position_resolution}Position Resolution} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/position_stability.png} \caption{\label{fig:position_stability}Position Stability} \end{figure} \subsection{Principles of accuracy} \label{sec:org8bb4cef} Limited stiffness, play and friction will induce an hysteresis for a positioning system as shown in Figure \ref{fig:stiffness_friction}. The hysteresis can actually help estimating the play and friction present in the system. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{figs/stiffness_friction.png} \caption{\label{fig:stiffness_friction}Stiffness, play and Friction} \end{figure} Ways to make the hysteresis smaller: \begin{itemize} \item avoid play (=> use compliant elements) \item minimize friction \item use high stiffness \end{itemize} The position uncertainty of a system can be estimated as follow (Figure \ref{fig:position_uncertainty}): \begin{equation} \text{Position Uncertainty} = \text{play} + 2 \times \text{Virtual Play} \end{equation} where the virtual play can be estimated as follow: \begin{equation} \text{Virtual Play} = \frac{\text{Friction Force}}{\text{Actuator Stiffness}} = \frac{F_w}{c} \end{equation} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{figs/position_uncertainty.png} \caption{\label{fig:position_uncertainty}Hysterestis, play and virtual play} \end{figure} When considering dynamics, the goal is to make the first resonance frequency much higher than the frequency of the wanted motion. Thus, the general recommendation is then to minimize mass and to increase stiffness. Moreover, we generally want things to be predictable: \begin{itemize} \item constant, preferably no friction. Note that it is very difficult to make a system with constant friction in practice, so better make a system with no friction. \item no play \item high stiffness \item low pass \end{itemize} \subsection{Case 1 - Estimate the virtual play} \label{sec:orgd9357d3} Estimate the virtual play of the system in Figure \ref{fig:case_1} with following characteristics: \begin{itemize} \item Payload: \(m = 20\,kg\) \item Friction coefficient in drive direction: \(f = 0.05\) \item Table stroke: \(L = 300\,mm\) \item Screw spindle inner diameter: \(d = 8\, mm\) \item Spindle Material: Stainless steel \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/case_1.png} \caption{\label{fig:case_1}Studied system for ``Case 1''} \end{figure} First the friction force can be calculated as the vertical mass times the friction coefficient: \begin{equation} F_w = (mg) f \end{equation} Then, the axial stiffness of the screw spindle is computed: \begin{equation} c = \frac{A}{L} E \end{equation} with: \begin{itemize} \item \(A = \pi d^2\) is the screw section area \item \(L = 300\,mm\) is the screw length \item \(E\) is the Young modulus of stainless steel \end{itemize} And finally: \begin{equation} \text{Virtual Play} = \frac{F_w}{c} \approx 0.6\,\mu m \end{equation} \subsection{Conventional elements for constraining DoFs} \label{sec:org1d95f48} There exist many conventional elements for constraining DoFs. Some of them are: \begin{itemize} \item Struts with ball joint: 1DoF constrained (Figure \ref{fig:ball_joint}) \item Ball bearing: 5DoF constrained (Figure \ref{fig:ball_bearing}) \item Guide with roller bearing: 4DoF constrained (Figure \ref{fig:roller_bearing}) \item Roller rail guide: 5DoF constrained (Figure \ref{fig:roller_rail_guide}) \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/ball_joint.png} \caption{\label{fig:ball_joint}Ball Joint} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/ball_bearing.png} \caption{\label{fig:ball_bearing}Ball Bearing} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/roller_bearing.png} \caption{\label{fig:roller_bearing}Roller Bearing} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/roller_rail_guide.png} \caption{\label{fig:roller_rail_guide}Roller Rail Guide} \end{figure} \subsection{Compliant elements for constraining DoFs} \label{sec:orga18b0a6} \subsubsection{Basic leaf springs and folded leaf springs} \label{sec:org538def2} An example of a complaint element is shown in Figure \ref{fig:compliant_leaf}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{figs/compliant_1dof.png} \caption{\label{fig:compliant_leaf}Example of 1dof constrained compliant element} \end{figure} Other types of compliant elements include: \begin{itemize} \item Leaf spring: constrains 3 dof (Figure \ref{fig:leaf_springs}) \item Folded leaf spring: constrains only 1dof (Figure \ref{fig:folded_leaf_springs}) These are generally used in combination with other folded leaf springs. \item Flexure pivots: constrains 5 dofs (Figure \ref{fig:flexure_pivots}) \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/leaf_springs.png} \caption{\label{fig:leaf_springs}Leaf springs} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/folded_leaf_springs.png} \caption{\label{fig:folded_leaf_springs}Folded Leaf springs} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/flexure_pivots.png} \caption{\label{fig:flexure_pivots}Flexure Pivots (5dof constrained)} \end{figure} \subsubsection{1dof Parallel Guiding} \label{sec:org6be431b} Parallel guiding can be made using two leaf springs (Figure \ref{fig:parallel_guiding}): \begin{itemize} \item 2 parallel leaf springs \item Force actuator in center of parallelism (middle of the leaf springs) to avoid coupled rotation \item Sag in vertical direction as a function as the horizontal displacement. This sag is predictible and reproducible: \begin{equation} \delta z = 0.6 \frac{x^2}{L} \end{equation} \item Vertical stiffness negatively affected by displacement \item Take care of maximum buckling (Figure \ref{fig:buckling}) \item Improve buckling load and Z stiffness by reinforced mid-section (Figure \ref{fig:reinforced_leaf_springs}) \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/parallel_guiding.png} \caption{\label{fig:parallel_guiding}Parallel guiding} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/buckling.png} \caption{\label{fig:buckling}Example of bucklink} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/reinforced_leaf_springs.png} \caption{\label{fig:reinforced_leaf_springs}Reinforced leaf springs} \end{figure} \subsubsection{Rotation Compliant Mechanism} \label{sec:org4f5c369} Figure \ref{fig:rotation_leaf_springs} shows a rotation compliant mechanism: \begin{itemize} \item 3 leaf springs \item no sensitive for thermal load on the body: as the central part heat ups and expand, the center line of the rotation stays at the same position \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/rotation_leaf_springs.png} \caption{\label{fig:rotation_leaf_springs}Example of rotation stage using leaf springs} \end{figure} \subsubsection{Z translation} \label{sec:orgdb48414} Figure \ref{fig:vertical_stage_compliant} shows a Z translation mechanism: \begin{itemize} \item 5 struts (``needles'') \item Not sensitive for thermal loads on body \end{itemize} The problem is that when it moves vertical, there will also be some z rotation because the length of the strut is fixed (stiff). This parasitic rotation is however predictable. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/vertical_stage_compliant.png} \caption{\label{fig:vertical_stage_compliant}Z translation using 5 struts} \end{figure} An alternative is to use folder leaf springs (Figure \ref{fig:vertical_stage_leafs}), and this avoid the parasitic rotation. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/vertical_stage_leafs.png} \caption{\label{fig:vertical_stage_leafs}Z translation using 5 folded leaf springs} \end{figure} \subsubsection{X-Y-Rz Stage} \label{sec:org1b32030} An X-Y-Rz stage can be done either using 3 struts (Figure \ref{fig:x_y_rz_stage}) or using 3 folded leaf springs (Figure \ref{fig:x_y_rz_leafs}). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/x_y_rz_stage.png} \caption{\label{fig:x_y_rz_stage}X,Y,Rz using 3 struts} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/x_y_rz_leafs.png} \caption{\label{fig:x_y_rz_leafs}X,Y,Rz using 3 folded leaf springs} \end{figure} \subsubsection{Compliant mechanism with only one fixed dof} \label{sec:orgd847245} The compliant mechanism shown in Figure \ref{fig:case_1_leaf_springs} only constrain the rotation about the y-axis. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/case_1_leaf_springs.png} \caption{\label{fig:case_1_leaf_springs}5dof motion, only the Ry is constrained} \end{figure} \subsubsection{Summary} \label{sec:org400a77b} \begin{itemize} \item compliant elements enable defined movements \item Hinges or guidings can be used for small movements \item \textbf{No play, No friction, No wear, No contamination} \item \textbf{but limited rotation, need a constant force to hold in place} \end{itemize} \subsubsection{Examples} \label{sec:org0b6b864} An example of a complex compliant mechanism is shown in Figure \ref{fig:compliant_example_1}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/compliant_example_1.png} \caption{\label{fig:compliant_example_1}Design concept} \end{figure} Figure \ref{fig:linear_bearing_leafs} shown a reinforced part to avoid buckling and improve vertical stiffness. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/linear_bearing_leafs.png} \caption{\label{fig:linear_bearing_leafs}Use leaf springs instead of linear roller bearings} \end{figure} \subsubsection{Mechatronics positioning challenge} \label{sec:orgde76fd5} A X-Y-Rz stage is shown in Figure \ref{fig:xyRz_positioning_challenge}. To make this stage usable for nano-metric positioning, the following ideas where used: \begin{itemize} \item Use parallel mechanisms instead of serial one: \begin{itemize} \item no stacking of errors \item smaller, stiffer, in one plane \end{itemize} \item Symmetry: \begin{itemize} \item Use 3 identical voice coil actuators \item Use 3 identical sensors \item Center position insensitive for temperature change \end{itemize} \item Flexure only; \begin{itemize} \item no friction \item no play \item no wear \item no particule (important for clean rooms) \item no service \end{itemize} \item Continuously under control: \begin{itemize} \item no alignment / crosstalk issues between axes \item voice coil / sensors combination determines performance \end{itemize} \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/xyRz_positioning_challenge.png} \caption{\label{fig:xyRz_positioning_challenge}Example of X-Y-Rz positioning stage} \end{figure} href{OjNnHa6O9A8}{video} \subsubsection{Case - Play Free parallel Stage} \label{sec:orgf82ad09} Figure \ref{fig:play_free_parallel_stage} shows a parallel mechanism that should be converted to a compliant mechanism. Its characteristics are: \begin{itemize} \item 1mm stroke \item 1:5 lever arm \item 10kg payload \item distance between hinges: 5nmm \item thickness t: 40mm \item Material: aluminium \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/play_free_parallel_stage.png} \caption{\label{fig:play_free_parallel_stage}Example of a parallel stage that should be converting to a compliant mechanism} \end{figure} The goals are to: \begin{itemize} \item Make design using elastic hinges \item Maximize vertical stiffness \item Determine vertical stiffness \end{itemize} The solution is shown in Figure \ref{fig:play_free_parallel_stage_solution}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/play_free_parallel_stage_solution.png} \caption{\label{fig:play_free_parallel_stage_solution}Case Solution} \end{figure} \subsection{Thin plate design} \label{sec:orgdd045af} \subsubsection{Thin plate in torsion} \label{sec:org8f32603} Thin plates are very important for compliant mechanisms. The torsion stiffness of a thing plate is linear with the length of the thin plate: \begin{equation} k = \frac{G I_p}{L} \end{equation} with \(G\) the shear modulus: \begin{equation} G \approx 0.3 E \end{equation} where \(E\) is the young modulus Then \begin{equation} I_p = \frac{1}{3} h t^3 = \frac{1}{3} A t^2 \end{equation} where \(A\) is the area of the cross section. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/thin_plate_torsion.png} \caption{\label{fig:thin_plate_torsion}A plate under torsion} \end{figure} \subsubsection{Difference between open and close profile} \label{sec:orgeb8fce6} The close profile has much more torsional stiffness than the open profile. Just by opening the tube, we have a much smaller torsional stiffness (but almost same axial stiffness for instance). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/open_close_profil_torsion_stiffness.png} \caption{\label{fig:open_close_profil_torsion_stiffness}Stiffness comparison open and closed tube (torsion)} \end{figure} We have similar behavior with an open/closed box. If we remove one side of the cube shown in Figure \ref{fig:closed_box}, we would have much smaller torsional stiffness along the axis perpendicular to the removed side. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/closed_box.png} \caption{\label{fig:closed_box}Closed box.} \end{figure} If we use triangles, we obtain high torsional stiffness as shown in Figure \ref{fig:torsion_stiffness_box_double_triangle}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/torsion_stiffness_box_double_triangle.png} \caption{\label{fig:torsion_stiffness_box_double_triangle}Open box (double triangle)} \end{figure} Frames are usually corresponding to open-boxes with have a small stiffness in torsion. On way to reinforce it is using triangles. A nice way to have a 1dof flexure guiding with stiff frame is shown in Figure \ref{fig:z_stage_triangles}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/z_stage_triangles.png} \caption{\label{fig:z_stage_triangles}Box with integrated flexure guiding} \end{figure} \section{Keynote: Mechatronic challenges in optical lithography\hfill{}\textsc{@hans\_butler}} \label{sec:org3957dc5} \subsection{Introduction} \label{sec:orga3bfee7} \textbf{Question}: in chip manufacturing, how do developments in optical lithography impact the mechatronic design? Main developments: \begin{itemize} \item Scanning \& dual stage scanning \item Immersion \item Multiple patterning \item Extreme ultra violet lithography \end{itemize} \subsection{Chip manufacturing loop} \label{sec:orgbab35a6} In this presentation, only the exposure step is discussed (lithography). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/asml_chip_manufacturing_loop.png} \caption{\label{fig:asml_chip_manufacturing_loop}Chip manufacturing loop} \end{figure} \subsection{Imaging process - Basics} \label{sec:org767776e} \begin{itemize} \item An illuminator provides light at constant wavelength \(\lambda\) \item The pattern on the reticle diffracts the light into order \item At least +/-1st orders need to be captures. This will induce a sinusoidal wave on the wafer as shown in Figure \ref{fig:asml_imaging_process}. \item Wafer and mast are placed on high accuracy moving stages \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/asml_imaging_process.png} \caption{\label{fig:asml_imaging_process}Imaging process - basics} \end{figure} \subsection{From stepper to scanner} \label{sec:org29b04a5} Before, one chip was illumating at a time, but people wanted to make bigger chips. However, if was difficult to make larger lenses. The solution was to use a scanner, were both the mask and wafer are on moving stages. This implied many requirements in dynamics and accuracy! \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/asml_stepper_to_scanner.png} \caption{\label{fig:asml_stepper_to_scanner}From stepper to scanner} \end{figure} \subsection{Dual stage scanners} \label{sec:org7b93404} Both the reticle stage and wafer stage are moving. In order to have the same throughput, higher stage accelerations are required. This implies some mechatronics challenges: \begin{itemize} \item higher stage acceleration \item higher accuracy \item interaction between stages \end{itemize} Which are solved by: \begin{itemize} \item Larger forces => balance masses \item Stage dynamical design for high bandwidth control \item Control coupling between stages (one control system can act as a disturbance to another controlled system => feedforward) \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/asml_dual_stage_scanners.png} \caption{\label{fig:asml_dual_stage_scanners}Machine based on the dual stage scanners} \end{figure} \subsection{Immersion technology} \label{sec:org070d595} Water is used between the lens and the wafer to increase the ``NA'' and thus decreasing the ``critical dimension''. The ``hood'' is there to prevent any bubble to enter the illumination area (Figure \ref{fig:asml_hood_system}). The position of the ``hood'' is actively control to follow the wafer stage (that can move in z direction and tilt). Three solutions are used for the positioning control of the ``hood'' system (Figure \ref{fig:asml_immersion}): \begin{itemize} \item Disturbance decoupling \item Iterative learning control \item Feed-forward control from the Wafer control signal \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/asml_hood_system.png} \caption{\label{fig:asml_hood_system}Hood System} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/asml_immersion.png} \caption{\label{fig:asml_immersion}Control system for the ``hood''} \end{figure} \subsection{Multiple Patterning} \label{sec:org3a7d2bc} The multiple patterning approach adds few mechatronics challenges: \begin{itemize} \item Position accuracy limited to \textasciitilde{}4nm due to interferoemter position measurement (variation of temperature/pressure of air) \item Stage swap is complex and time-consuming \end{itemize} This was solved by: \begin{itemize} \item Using encoder instead of interferometers \item Use long stroke motor: h-stage => new wafer stage concept \end{itemize} \subsection{Machine layout} \label{sec:orgafdb1a5} Each stage is controlled with 6dof lorentz short stroke actuators (Figure \ref{fig:asml_machine_layout_bis}). The magnet stage can move horizontally (due to reaction forces of the wafer stages): it asks as a balance mass. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/asml_machine_layout_bis.png} \caption{\label{fig:asml_machine_layout_bis}Machine layout} \end{figure} \subsection{EUV Lithography} \label{sec:orgc44f0ff} Vacuum is required which implies: \begin{itemize} \item no bearings \item no cooling \end{itemize} All the optics are reflective: \begin{itemize} \item extremely accurately polished \item challenge: keep mirrors optimally positioned \end{itemize} Wafer stage: \begin{itemize} \item Move at high speed and accelerations \item Challenge: in vaccum \item Solved by: machanically suspended balance mass, and interferoemter position meaured can be used because it is in vacuum now \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/asml_euv.png} \caption{\label{fig:asml_euv}Schematic of the ASML EUV machine} \end{figure} \subsection{The future: high-NA EUV} \label{sec:orgc8f544f} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=0.5\linewidth]{./figs/asml_na_euv.png} \caption{\label{fig:asml_na_euv}The CD will be 8nm} \end{figure} In order to do so, high ``opening'' of the optics is required which is very challenges because the reflectiveness of mirror is decreasing as high angle of incidence (Figure \ref{fig:asml_reflection_angle}). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/asml_reflection_angle.png} \caption{\label{fig:asml_reflection_angle}Change of reflection of a mirror as a function of the angle of indicence} \end{figure} \subsection{Challenges for future Optical Lithography machines} \label{sec:org26470d4} \textbf{Challenges}: \begin{itemize} \item Double wafer stage acceleration \item Much bigger mirrors \item Tighter accuracy specifications despite \end{itemize} \textbf{Solutions}: \begin{itemize} \item Stage and mirror dynamics, high bandwidth control \item Dynamics architecture: improved isolation, multiple isolate sets \item Heating compensation \end{itemize} \subsection{Conclusion} \label{sec:org76f6487} The conclusions are: \begin{itemize} \item Lithographic tools are the main enabler for over shrinking device sizes \item New (optical) requirements lead to new mechatronic challenges: \begin{itemize} \item Larger fields / better imaging: from stepping to scanning \item Larger wafer size: dual stage scanners \item Immersion: wafer stage \& hood control \item Multiple patterning: planar motors and encoder technology \item EUV: all-vacuum stages \item High-NA EUV: new optics, much larger accelerations \end{itemize} \end{itemize} \section{Designing anti-aliasing-filters for control loops of mechatronic systems regarding the rejection of aliased resonances\hfill{}\textsc{@ulrich\_schonhoff}} \label{sec:orgb62f257} \subsection{The phenomenon of aliasing of resonances} \label{sec:org839a832} Weakly damped flexible modes of the mechanism can limit the performance of motion control systems. For discrete time controlled systems, there can be an additional limitation: aliased resonances which are rarely discussed. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/aliasing_resonances.png} \caption{\label{fig:aliasing_resonances}Example of high frequency lighlty damped resonances} \end{figure} The aliasing of signals is well known (Figure \ref{fig:aliasing_signals}). However, aliasing in systems can also happens and is schematically shown in Figure \ref{fig:aliasing_system}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/aliasing_signals.png} \caption{\label{fig:aliasing_signals}Aliasing of Signals} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/aliasing_system.png} \caption{\label{fig:aliasing_system}Aliasing of Systems} \end{figure} The poles of the system will be aliased and their location will change in the complex plane as shown in Figure \ref{fig:aliasing_poles}. More precisely: \begin{itemize} \item the imaginary parts of the poles mirror about the Nyquist frequency \item the real parts of the poles remain equal \end{itemize} Therefore, the damping of the aliased resonances are foreseen to have larger dampings. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/aliasing_poles.png} \caption{\label{fig:aliasing_poles}Aliasing of poles in the complex plane} \end{figure} Let's consider two systems with a resonance: \begin{enumerate} \item below the Nyquist frequency (blue dashed) \item above the Nyquist frequency (green dashed) \end{enumerate} Then looking at the same systems in the digital domain, one can see thathen the resonance is above the Nyquist frequency (Figure \ref{fig:aliasing_above_nyquist}): \begin{itemize} \item the resonance mirrors \item the damping is increased \end{itemize} Therefore, when identifying a low damped resonance, it could be that it comes form a high frequency low damped resonance. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/aliasing_above_nyquist.png} \caption{\label{fig:aliasing_above_nyquist}Aliazed resonance shown on the Bode Diagram} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/alising_much_above_nyquist.png} \caption{\label{fig:alising_much_above_nyquist}Higher resonance frequency} \end{figure} \subsection{Nature, Modelling and Mitigation of potentially aliasing resonances} \label{sec:org400802b} The aliased modes can for instance comes from local modes in the actuators that are lightly damped and at high frequency (Figure \ref{fig:alising_nature}) \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/alising_nature.png} \caption{\label{fig:alising_nature}Local vibration mode that will be alized} \end{figure} The proposed idea to better model aliasing resonances is to include more modes in the FEM software as shown in Figure \ref{fig:aliasing_modeling} and then perform an order reduction in matlab. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/aliasing_modeling.png} \caption{\label{fig:aliasing_modeling}Common procedure and proposed procedure to include aliazed resonances} \end{figure} \subsection{Anti aliasing filter design} \label{sec:org1d407f3} \subsubsection{Introduction} \label{sec:org54decc1} \begin{itemize} \item Anti-aliasing filtering can be used to reject aliasing of resonances and to maintain the stability of the control loop \item However, its phase lag deteriorates the control loop performances: \begin{itemize} \item phase margin decreases (Figure \ref{fig:alising_filter_introduction}) \item sensitivity peak increases (Figure \ref{fig:aliasing_sensitivity_effect}) \end{itemize} \item Thus, the anti-aliasing filter should be targeted at sufficient rejection at least possible phase lag \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/alising_filter_introduction.png} \caption{\label{fig:alising_filter_introduction}Example of the effect of aliased resonance on the open-loop} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/aliasing_sensitivity_effect.png} \caption{\label{fig:aliasing_sensitivity_effect}Example of the effect of aliased resonance on sensitivity function} \end{figure} \subsubsection{Concept of equivalent delay} \label{sec:orgc6de634} \textbf{Concept}: \begin{itemize} \item At frequencies well below its poles and zeros, a continuous time filter \(F(j\omega)\) shows almost linear phase: \begin{equation} \arg\big( F(j\omega) \big) \approx -T_e \omega \end{equation} \item Thus, \textbf{the phase lag of the filter can be fairly correctly represented by a time delay (below the pole frequency)}. The equivalent delay is: \begin{equation} T_e = \sum_{i=1}^{N_p} \frac{\xi_{pi}}{\omega_{0pi}} - \sum_{i=1}^{N_z} \frac{\xi_{zi}}{\omega_{0zi}} \end{equation} \item where \(\omega_{0pi}\) is the natural frequency \(\xi_{pi}\) is the damping of the \(N_p\) poles of \(F(s)\). Similarly, \(\omega_{0zi}\) is the natural frequency \(\xi_{zi}\) is the damping of the \(N_z\) zeros of \(F(s)\). \end{itemize} \textbf{Examples} (Figure \ref{fig:aliasing_equivalent_delay}): \begin{itemize} \item First order low pass filter: \[ \xi_p = 1 \Rightarrow T_e = \frac{1}{\omega_c} \] \item Second order Butterworth low pass filter: \[ \xi_p = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \Rightarrow T_e = \sqrt{2} \frac{1}{\omega_c} \] \item First order lead: \[ \xi_z = 1 \Rightarrow T_e = - \frac{1}{\omega_c} \] \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/aliasing_equivalent_delay.png} \caption{\label{fig:aliasing_equivalent_delay}Magnitude, Phase and Phase delay of 3 filters} \end{figure} \subsubsection{Budgeting of phase lag} \label{sec:org5b76e5e} The budgeting of the phase lag is done by expressing the phase lag of each element by a time delay (Figure \ref{fig:aliasing_budget_phase}) \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/aliasing_budget_phase.png} \caption{\label{fig:aliasing_budget_phase}Typical control loop with several phase lag / time delays} \end{figure} The equivalent delay of each element are listed in Figure \ref{fig:aliasing_budget_table}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/aliasing_budget_table.png} \caption{\label{fig:aliasing_budget_table}Equivalent delay for all the elements of the control loop} \end{figure} \subsubsection{Selecting the filter order} \label{sec:org1d544f2} The filter order can be chosen depending on the frequency of the resonance.

\section{Multivariable performance analysis of position-controlled payloads with flexible eigenmodes\hfill{}\textsc{@luca\_mettenleiter}} \label{sec:org71d4d83} \subsection{Motivation} \label{sec:org683df29} Flexible eigenmodes are present in every system component and leads to:: \begin{itemize} \item controller bandwidth limitation (Figure \ref{fig:mimo_flexible_modes}) \item additional cross-coupling in the system behavior (Figure \ref{fig:mimo_flexible_modes_coupling}) \end{itemize} => can lead to stability problems \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/mimo_flexible_modes.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimo_flexible_modes}Limitation of the control bandwidth due to flexible eigenmodes} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/mimo_flexible_modes_coupling.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimo_flexible_modes_coupling}Coupling due to flexible eigenmodes} \end{figure} In order to estimate the performances of a system, the sensitivity function can be used (Figure \ref{fig:mimo_sensitivity_performance}). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/mimo_sensitivity_performance.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimo_sensitivity_performance}Bode plot of a typical Sensitivity function} \end{figure} \subsection{Performance analysis with different sensitivity functions} \label{sec:org117c83e} There are different way to analyse the sensitivity function base on different plants (Figure \ref{fig:mimo_sensitivity_functions}): \begin{enumerate} \item the \textbf{full system} (complicated): \[ L_{full} = \begin{bmatrix}L_{11} & L_{12} \\ L_{21} & L_{22} \end{bmatrix} \] \item the \textbf{diagonal system} (ignoring interaction) \[ L_{diag} = \begin{bmatrix}L_{11} & 0 \\ 0 & L_{22} \end{bmatrix} \] \item the \textbf{loop interaction system} (the one proposed here) \[ L^{LI} = \begin{bmatrix}L_1^{LI} & 0 \\ 0 & L_2^{LI} \end{bmatrix} \] \end{enumerate} The loop interaction methods created a SISO system that also represents the coupling in the system. One loop is closed at a time, and the coupling effects are taken into account. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/mimo_sensitivity_functions.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimo_sensitivity_functions}Visual representation of the three systems} \end{figure} \subsection{Example system} \label{sec:org1870554} In order to compare the use of the three systems to estimate the performances of a MIMO system, the system shown in Figure \ref{fig:mimo_example_system} is used. The 4 top masses are used to represent a payload that will add coupling in the system due to its resonances. A diagonal PID controller is used. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/mimo_example_system.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimo_example_system}Schematic representation of the example system} \end{figure} The bode plot of the MIMO system is shown in Figure \ref{fig:mimo_example_bode} where we can see the resonances in the off-diagonal elements. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/mimo_example_bode.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimo_example_bode}Bode plot of the full MIMO system} \end{figure} In Figure \ref{fig:mimo_example_sensitivity} is shown that the sensitivity function computed from the SISO system is not correct. Whereas for the ``interaction method'' system, it is correct and almost match the full system sensibility. However, as expected, the off-diagonal sensibilities are not modelled. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/mimo_example_sensitivity.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimo_example_sensitivity}Bode plots of sensitivity functions} \end{figure} \subsection{Conclusion} \label{sec:org8cc1373} The conclusion are the following and summarized in Figure \ref{fig:mimo_results}: \begin{itemize} \item Choice of suitable analysis method is key concept in mechatronics engineering \item Various methods for analysis of multivariable systems available: \begin{itemize} \item Full system always delivers reliable information, but much analysis effort \item Loop interaction method delivers reliable information, only if the system is weakly or symmetrically coupled \item Diagonal system delivers unreliable information, as it does not take multivariable character into account \end{itemize} \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/mimo_results.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimo_results}Comparison of the three methods to deal with a MIMO system} \end{figure} \section{High-precision motion system design by topology optimization considering additive manufacturing\hfill{}\textsc{@arnoud\_delissen}} \label{sec:org7e9e744} \subsection{Introduction} \label{sec:orgb06af05} The goal of this project is to perform a topology optimization of a 6dof magnetic levitated stage suitable for vacuum. For the current system (Figure \ref{fig:mimoopt_6dof_stage}), the bandwidth is limited by the short-stroke dynamics (eigenfrequencies). The goal here is to make the eigen-frequency higher as this will allow more bandwidth. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/mimoopt_6dof_stage.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimoopt_6dof_stage}Schematic of the 6dof levitating stage} \end{figure} \subsection{Case} \label{sec:org3e7f315} More precisely, the goal is to automatically maximize the three eigen-frequencies of the system shown in Figure \ref{fig:mimoopt_case}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.3]{./figs/mimoopt_case.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimoopt_case}System to be optimized} \end{figure} \subsection{Manufacturing process} \label{sec:org9a2507b} The manufacturing process must be embedded in the optimization such that the obtained design is producible.

To do so, the system is discretized into small elements (Figure \ref{fig:mimoopt_3d_opti}). Then, a Finite Element Analysis is performed to compute the eigen-frequencies of the system. Finally, for each element, the ``gradient is computed'' and we determine if material should be added or removed. This is done in 3D. The individual 1mm x 1mm x 1mm elements are shown in Figure \ref{fig:mimoopt_3d_opti}. The number of elements is 1 million (=> 15 minutes per iteration to compute the 3 eigen-frequencies). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/mimoopt_3d_opti.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimoopt_3d_opti}Results of the topology optimization and zoom to see individual elements} \end{figure} \subsection{Performance Comparison} \label{sec:org86e9b51} The obtained mass and eigen-frequencies of the optimized system and the solid equivalents are compared in Figure \ref{fig:mimoopt_performance}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/mimoopt_performance.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimoopt_performance}Comparison of the obtained performances} \end{figure} Identification on the realized system shown that the obtained eigen-frequencies are very closed to the estimated ones (Figure \ref{fig:mimoopt_frf_identification}). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/mimoopt_frf_identification.png} \caption{\label{fig:mimoopt_frf_identification}Results very close to simulation (\textasciitilde{}1\% for the eigen frequencies)} \end{figure} \subsection{Conclusion} \label{sec:org3e46245} \begin{itemize} \item Increase in performance (\textasciitilde{}2x) compared to solid designs \item A design is obtained in \textasciitilde{} 1 day \item Practical constraints are incorporated in the optimization \item The method is validated in practice by a demonstrator \end{itemize} \section{A multivariable experiment design framework for accurate FRF identification of complex systems\hfill{}\textsc{@nic\_dirkx}} \label{sec:orgf656f92} \subsection{Introduction} \label{sec:org3d7ede5} \textbf{Goal}: Need for higher quality FRF models that are used to: \begin{itemize} \item Controller design \item Observer design \item System diagnostics \item Parametric modelling \end{itemize} High quality FRFs requires careful design of excitation \(w\).

There is no general methods to solve this problem, a dedicated algorithm is required. In this work, two algorithms are proposed and not further detailed here. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/frf_optimization_steps.png} \caption{\label{fig:frf_optimization_steps}Two step optimization process} \end{figure} \subsection{Experimental validation} \label{sec:org799a133} Experimental identification of a 7x8 MIMO plant was performed in for different cases: \begin{enumerate} \item non optimized SISO approach (grey) \item optimized SISO approach (blue) \item optimized MIMO approach using SSDR (first algorithm proposed) (green) \item optimized MIMO approach using RR (second algorithm proposed) (red) \end{enumerate} The obtained FRFs are shown in Figure \ref{fig:frf_experiment}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/frf_experiment.png} \caption{\label{fig:frf_experiment}Obtained MIMO FRFs} \end{figure} A comparison of one of the obtained FRFs is shown in Figure \ref{fig:frf_experiment_optimized}.

The angular measurement error and control is less than \(0.05 \text{arcses}\) which make the residual Abbe error: \begin{equation} \Delta l < 0.05\,nm \end{equation} Without an error-minimal approach, nano-meter precision cannot be achieved in large areas. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/prec_6dof_abbe.png} \caption{\label{fig:prec_6dof_abbe}Use of additional autocollimator and actuators for Abbe minimization} \end{figure} \subsection{Practical Realisation} \label{sec:org5918268} A practical realization of the Extended 6 DoF Abbe comparator principle is shown in Figure \ref{fig:prec_practical_6dof}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/prec_practical_6dof.png} \caption{\label{fig:prec_practical_6dof}Practical Realization of the} \end{figure} \subsection{Tilt Compensation} \label{sec:orgdeff6d8} To measure compensate for any tilt, two solutions are proposed: \begin{enumerate} \item Use a zero point angular auto-collimator (Figure \ref{fig:prec_tilt_corection}) \begin{itemize} \item Resolution: 0.005 arcsec \item Stability (1h): < 0.05 arcsec \end{itemize} \item 6 DoF laser interferoemter (Figure \ref{fig:prec_tilt_corection_bis}) \begin{itemize} \item Resolution: 0.00002 arcsec \item Stability (1h): < 0.00005 arcsec \end{itemize} \end{enumerate} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/prec_tilt_corection.png} \caption{\label{fig:prec_tilt_corection}Auto-Collimator} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/prec_tilt_corection_bis.png} \caption{\label{fig:prec_tilt_corection_bis}6 Interferometers to measure tilts} \end{figure} \subsection{Comparison of long travail guiding systems - Bis} \label{sec:orge2f7fa0} Now, if we actively compensate the tilts are shown previously, we can fulfill the requirements as shown in Figure \ref{fig:prec_comp_guid_bis}. \textbf{Measurement and control technology to minimize Abbe errors to achieve}: \begin{itemize} \item sub-nanometer precision \item smaller moving mass \item better dynamics \end{itemize} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/prec_comp_guid_bis.png} \caption{\label{fig:prec_comp_guid_bis}Characteristics of the tilt compensation system} \end{figure} \subsection{Drive concept} \label{sec:org6a0f362} Usually, in order to achieve a large range over small resolution, each axis of motion is a combination of a coarse motion and a fine motion stage. The coarse motion stage generally consist of a stepper motor while the fine motion is a piezoelectric actuator. The approach here is to use an \textbf{homogenous drive concept for increase dynamics} (Figure \ref{fig:prec_drive_concept}). Only one linear voice coil actuator is used which with large moving range and sub-nanometer resolution can be achieve at one time. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/prec_drive_concept.png} \caption{\label{fig:prec_drive_concept}Voice Coil Actuator} \end{figure} \subsection{NPMM-200 with extended measuring volume} \label{sec:orgf3bbc4f} The NPMM-200 machine can be seen in Figure \ref{fig:prec_mechanics}.

The goal was to make a lightweight measuring head (<1kg) The interferometer used are fiber coupled laser interferometers with a mass of 37g (Figure \ref{fig:prec_interferometers}). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/prec_interferometers.png} \caption{\label{fig:prec_interferometers}Micro Interferometers} \end{figure} The concept is shown in Figure \ref{fig:prec_inverse_meas_head}: \begin{itemize} \item 6dof interferometers are used \item one micro-probe \item the total mass of the head is less than 1kg \end{itemize} There is some abbe offset between measurement axis of probe and of interferometer but \textbf{Abbe error compensation by closed loop control of angular deviations} is used. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/prec_inverse_meas_head.png} \label{fig:prec_inverse_meas_head} \end{figure} \subsection{Inverse kinematic concept - Scanning probe principle} \label{sec:org3c55958} As shown in Figure \ref{fig:prec_abbe_compensation}, the abbe error can be compensated from the two top interferometers as: \[ \text{for } l_x = a: \quad \Delta l_{\text{Abbe}} = \Delta l_{\text{int}} \] Thus the tilt and Abbe errors can be compensated for with sub-nm resolution. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/prec_abbe_compensation.png} \caption{\label{fig:prec_abbe_compensation}Use of the interferometers to compensate for the Abbe errors} \end{figure} \subsection{Conclusion} \label{sec:orgee87060} Proposed approaches to push the nano-positioning and nano-measuring technology: \begin{itemize} \item Measurement and control technology to minimize Abbe errors \item Homogeneous drive concept for increased dynamics \item Inverse kinematic concept for minimization of moving mass \item Abbe-error compensation by closed loop control of angular deviations \end{itemize} \section{Reducing control delay times to enhance dynamic stiffness of magnetic bearings\hfill{}\textsc{@jan\_philipp\_schmidtmann}} \label{sec:orgcfd6c7a} \subsection{Introduction} \label{sec:org07f601c} This projects focuses on reducing the control delay times of a magnetic bearing shown in Figure \ref{fig:magn_bear_intro}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/magn_bear_intro.png} \caption{\label{fig:magn_bear_intro}6 DoF Position System - Concept} \end{figure} Active magnetic bearings are unstable systems and require active control. However, the active control of magnet forces leads to a control delay that limits the performances (stiffness) of the bearing. \subsection{Time Delay Reduction} \label{sec:orga0dcdef} Typical contributors to the control delay time are shown in Figure \ref{fig:magn_bear_delay}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/magn_bear_delay.png} \caption{\label{fig:magn_bear_delay}Typical Contributors to control delay time} \end{figure} The reduction of the control time delay will increase the dynamic stiffness of the bearing as well as decrease the effects of external disturbances and hence improve the positioning errors (Figure \ref{fig:magn_bear_distur}). The steps to reduce the control delay time are: \begin{enumerate} \item Eliminate BUSS-communication by merging position and current controller \item Reduce cycle time by using rapid prototyping system \item Reduce delay in PWM driver by using high PWM frequencies with SiC driver \end{enumerate} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/magn_bear_distur.png} \caption{\label{fig:magn_bear_distur}The effect of control delay on stiffness} \end{figure} \subsection{Practical Realization} \label{sec:org4c987e4} Therefore, the position and current control have been merged into one controller (Figure \ref{fig:magn_controller}). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/magn_controller.png} \caption{\label{fig:magn_controller}Controller for position and current} \end{figure} A dSpace rapid prototyping system is used for fast position and current control.

The next steps for this project are shown in Figure \ref{fig:magn_bear_conclusion}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/magn_bear_conclusion.png} \caption{\label{fig:magn_bear_conclusion}Next Steps} \end{figure} \section{Digital twins in control: From fault detection to predictive maintenance in precision mechatronics\hfill{}\textsc{@koen\_classens}} \label{sec:orgfaa4eef} \subsection{Motivation} \label{sec:org8d1b02f} Models are usually for the control design part that can be either physical models (FEM, first principle) or data-driven models. However, these models are usually not used after control system is implemented (Figure \ref{fig:twins_motivation}). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/twins_motivation.png} \caption{\label{fig:twins_motivation}Typical of of models in a mechatronic system} \end{figure} Here, the models are exploited to monitor the system and predict future possible failures in the system. Use models as digital twin for \textbf{fault detection and Isolation for predictive maintenance in precision mechatronics} (Figure \ref{fig:twing_fdi}). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/twing_fdi.png} \caption{\label{fig:twing_fdi}FDI is using the model of the plant} \end{figure} \subsection{Predictive Maintenance} \label{sec:org5ea6235} Classical maintenance happens when the system is not working anymore as shown in Figure \ref{fig:twins_predictive_maintenance}. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/twins_predictive_maintenance.png} \caption{\label{fig:twins_predictive_maintenance}Maintenance done when a failure is appearing} \end{figure} It is possible to perform some preventive maintenance before a failure happens, but this is still not optimal. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/twins_predictive_maintenance_bis.png} \caption{\label{fig:twins_predictive_maintenance_bis}Preventive Maintenance} \end{figure} The idea here is to predict when the failure will happen in order to only do maintenance only when really necessary. This will minimize the down time of the machine. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/twins_predictive_maintenance_ter.png} \caption{\label{fig:twins_predictive_maintenance_ter}Predictive maintenance} \end{figure} \subsection{Objectives} \label{sec:org79e0c06} The main objective is to develop a system monitoring approach for precision mechatronic systems, exploiting prior information (models) and integrating posterior information (real-time measured data). Even though state of the art system monitoring are already in used in aerospace, process industry and automotive, there are few specificity for mechatronic systems: \begin{itemize} \item Control loops \item Large-scale MIMO systems (interaction) \item Accurate models: Frequency Response Functions \end{itemize} \subsection{Null-space based FDI} \label{sec:org56b4154} The goal is to applied a decentralized Fault Detection on the system shown in Figure \ref{fig:twings_fdi_test} to detect actuator faults at \(J_1\). This should take into account the control loop, interaction in the system and be FRF based. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{./figs/twings_fdi_test.png} \caption{\label{fig:twings_fdi_test}Test System} \end{figure} The architecture to estimate faults in the system is shown in Figure \ref{fig:twins_null_space_fdi}. The goal is to design \(Q_u\) and \(Q_y\) such that \(\epsilon\) is a representation of faults in the system. \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[scale=0.4]{./figs/twins_null_space_fdi.png} \caption{\label{fig:twins_null_space_fdi}Residual Generator} \end{figure} When a fault happens (Figure \ref{fig:twins_results_fdi}), the outputs signals are not changing that much (because of feedback), however the system is able to find that there is a problem using the residual \(\epsilon\). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/twins_results_fdi.png} \caption{\label{fig:twins_results_fdi}Simulation Results} \end{figure} \textbf{Procedure}: \begin{itemize} \item Additive faults \item Closed-loop \item Interaction \item start from identification \end{itemize} \subsection{Roadmap from fault detection to predictive maintenance} \label{sec:org436cc8f} The proposed system can detect faults in the system (Figure \ref{fig:twins_roadmap}). This proof of principle should now be applied on industrial systems. Moreover, from the fault detection, predictive maintenance should be performed (Figure \ref{fig:twins_roadmap}). \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/twins_roadmap.png} \caption{\label{fig:twins_roadmap}From proof of principle to industrial application} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/twins_roadmap_bis.png} \caption{\label{fig:twins_roadmap_bis}From fault detection to predictive maintenance} \end{figure} \end{document}
