Analysis and Compensation of Kinetic Friction in Robotic and Mechatronic Control Systems (eBook, PDF)

Michael Ruderman studied first the applied physics and then computer and electrical engineering, and earned his Dr.-Ing. degree from the Technical University Dortmund, Germany, in 2012. He worked in academia for seven years in Germany and for two and a half years in Japan, at different institutions, and became a faculty member at the University of Agder in Norway in 2015. He has been a full professor at the University of Agder since 2020 where he is teaching control theory and engineering in various study programs. He serves on different editorial boards and technical committees and has co-organized several scientific conferences and workshops. His research interests are, among others, in motion control, robotics and mechatronics, nonlinear systems with memory, and hybrid and robust control.
