Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive analysis and summary of parameter identification and error compensation methods for LuGre friction models in mechanical systems. The application of the model is discussed in detail from two aspects: parameter identification and error compensation. Firstly, the basic principle and mathematical expression of LuGre friction model are introduced. Secondly, the common LuGre friction model parameter identification methods are outlined. Then, the error compensation method of LuGre model is discussed. Finally, the development direction of future research is pointed out. The review of LuGre model parameter identification and error compensation methods provides important references and insights for researchers in related fields and helps to further advance the development and application of friction compensation technology.
