Determining the constraint reactions of awheeled robotic vehicle with one steerable wheel

The reactions of the nonholonomic constraints of a wheeled robotic vehicle with one steerable wheel are determined. Simplified (asymptotic) relations are derived in addition to the exact ones. They are used to estimate the reactions. The efficiency of the approximate formulas is demonstrated by an example Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 44, No. 11, pp. 123–131, November 2008.     

Nonlinear Programming Methods for Real-Time Control of an Industrial Robot

The optimal control of an industrial robot is considered as a parametricnonlinear control problem subject to control and state constraints. Based onrecent stability results for parametric control problems, a robust nonlinearprogramming method is proposed to compute the sensitivity of open-loopcontrol solutions. Real-time control approximations of the perturbedoptimal solutions are obtained by evaluating first-order Taylor expansionsof the optimal solutions with respect to the parameter. The proposednumerical methods are applied to the industrial robot Manutec r3. Thequality of the real-time approximations is illustrated for perturbations inthe transport load.

士兵可穿戴下肢外骨骼机器人多元感知方法研究

下肢外骨骼机器人是一种可穿戴且融合了多种机器人技术的复杂人-机系统。它将人类的智慧与机器人强壮的能力有效地结合起来,最大限度地提高人体的机动力和耐力,这为提升单兵作战系统的能力创造了条件。鉴于下肢外骨骼机器人在作战、后勤保障时可能遇到的复杂地形、多变随机的任务等,仅通过基于既定的典型步态规划程序驱动执行已知的特定动作,难以保证人机间的耦合性和动作的高随意性切换。为此,模拟并提炼出士兵常见的六种下肢动作作为后续研究,然后分析了下肢外骨骼机器人的感知控制原理,并提出了基于脑电预判感知、肌电精确感知和光纤实时校正的多信息融合的感知方法,强调将人的智能参与到机器人控制中,以期推进士兵可穿戴下肢外骨骼机器人的实用化。

Dynamic analysis and system identification of an LCD glass-handling robot driven by a PMSM

In this paper, Hamilton’s principle is employed to derive Lagrange’s equations of an liquid crystal display (LCD) glass-handling robot driven by a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). The robot has three arms driven by two timing belts. The dynamic formulations can be expressed by one and four independent variables, which are named as the rigid and flexible models, respectively. In order to verify the dynamic formulation is correct, we reduce the flexible model to the rigid one under some assumptions. In this paper, we adopt the real-coded genetic algorithm (RGA) to identify all the parameters of the robot and PMSM simultaneously. It is found that the RGA can identify system parameters which are difficult to be measured in practical problems, for examples, the inductance, stator resistance, motor torque constant, damping coefficient of the motor and timing belts. In numerical simulations, vibrations due to flexibility of the timing belts are investigated for the angular displacements, speeds, accelerations of arms, and the horizontal and vertical displacements of the robot. The angular displacements of the robot arm and the translational positions of the robot end are obtained in the numerical simulations and experimental results. From their comparisons, it is demonstrated that identification results of the dynamic model with four independent variables present the better matching with experimental results of the system.
