Abstract: The disclosure provides a method and system for trajectory tracking control of a vehicle-manipulator coupling system with finite time prescribed performance. Specifically, the trajectory tracking error of the vehicle-manipulator coupling system is obtained. A finite time performance function is designed to constrain the trajectory tracking error. In a case the constraint conditions corresponding to the finite time performance function are satisfied, the trajectory tracking error is converted to obtain a transformed error. The sliding mode surface is designed based on the transformed error to control the transformed error to converge in a finite time, and the external disturbance of the vehicle-manipulator coupling system is observed based on non-linear disturbance observer. The control input of the vehicle-manipulator coupling system is designed based on the sliding mode surface and the non-linear disturbance observer output.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of adjusting the molecular weight of syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene prepared using an iron-based catalyst. In the present application, when an iron-based catalyst catalyzes the polymerization of butadiene to prepare syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene, alpha-olefins are added as a molecular weight regulator, and a chain transfer effect is achieved through competitive adsorption. At the same time, since alpha-olefins are stable to iron-based catalysts, cannot be initiated to polymerize, and are easy to separate from butadiene, they have a significant effect on molecular weight regulation and do not have a significant effect on activity, making it possible to prepare syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene thermoplastic elastomers with number average molecular weights ranging from 3,000-250,000. The syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene rubber prepared by the present application has better processability.
