Precision Mechatronics at the American Control Conference, Milwaukee, June 27-29, 2018

Join us in Milwaukee at ACC 2019 to collaborate with other researchers and engineers on the design and control of precision mechatronic systems including nanopositioning, microscopy, motion control, and lithography. The contributed papers will include advances from both academic and industrial researchers. In previous years, industrial involvement included companies such as: ASML, Agilent, IBM, NT-MDT, [...]

Polytec 3D MEMS Analyzer

The Precision Mechatronics Lab has installed a Polytec MSA-100-3DSV-V analyzer for characterizing micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) in three dimensions. This instrument will allow new micro-sensors under development to be characterized up to frequencies of 24-MHz.

Fleming receives Batterham Medal

Dr. Fleming has received the 2016 Batterham Medal, an award from the Australian Academy of Technology and Engineering, that recognises an early career engineer who has achieved substantial peer and industry recognition in the past five years. The medal was presented to Associate Professor Fleming by Professor Robin Batterham AO FREng FAA FTSE at the [...]

Novel Microcantilevers for Multifrequency Atomic Force Microscopy

Dr. Yuen Yong has received an Australian Research Council Discovery Grant ($296,000) to develop Novel Microcantilevers for Multifrequency Atomic Force Microscopy. This research will enable high-speed simultaneous imaging of multiple physical and chemical properties at the molecular and atomic scale. This project will begin in January 2017 and is funded for three years.

Optimal Periodic Trajectories for Band-Limited Systems

These Matlab files are an implementatation of the band-limited periodic reference generator described in "Optimal periodic trajectories for band-limited systems", A. J. Fleming and A. G. Wills, IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, 13 (3), pp. 552-562, 2009. The functions include: a band-limited periodic signal generator; optimal inverse filtering; and examples for visualization in simulink. [...]

Precision Mechatronics at the IFAC World Congress, Toulouse, France, July 9-14, 2017

Join us in Toulouse, France at the IFAC 2017 World Congress to collaborate with other researchers and engineers on the design and control of precision mechatronic systems including motion control, 3D printing, nanopositioning, microscopy, and lithography. Previous sessions have been attended in equal numbers by industrial and academic participants. Topics of interest include but are [...]

Modeling and Control of Biological Nano/Micro Systems at the American Control Conference, May 24-26, Seattle, USA

We invite technical contributions for an invited session in the field of modeling and control of biological systems at the 2017 American Control Conference (ACC). Contributions are solicited in areas including modeling, simulation, design, optimization, estimation, diagnostics and control methods with applications to various biological systems at the nano-/micro-scale. Please send your submission (a draft paper or extended summary) [...]

Best Paper Finalist at IEEE AIM 2016

This article presents a new method for fabricating nanopositioning systems from a single layer of piezoelectric material by ultrasonic machining. The article is among 5 finalists for the best paper award at the IEEE Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics which will be held in Banff, Canada on the 12th to 15th of July. [...]

IEEE Nanotechnology Council

Andrew Fleming has been appointed as an IEEE Control Systems Society representative on the IEEE Nanotechnology Council. The IEEE Nanotechnology Council (NTC) is a multi-disciplinary group whose purpose is to advance and coordinate work in the field of Nanotechnology carried out throughout the IEEE in scientific, literary and educational areas. The Council supports the theory, [...]
