Book Inverse Dynamics Control in Robotics Applications

Download or read book Inverse Dynamics Control in Robotics Applications written by Krzysztof Piotr Jankowski and published by Trafford. This book was released on 2004 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents both the foundations and implementation aspects of the inverse dynamics control, and examines how the solution of the inverse dynamics problem can be used for the development of controllers for selected engineering applications. The inverse dynamics control approach is directly related to the solution of the inverse dynamics problem considered in analytical mechanics. Having the specified motion and the desired properties of the resulting system, the control inputs that ensure the realization of these control objectives are to be found. By appropriately inverting the dynamic model of the plant to be controlled, a control law can be constructed which cancels the nonlinear part of the dynamics, decouples the interactions between the regulated variables, and specifies the time characteristics of the decay of the task errors. The constrained system formalism is used throughout the book and its usefulness for inverse dynamics formulation is established. The capability of the inverse dynamics controller to enforce the execution of prescribed motion of the system and at the same time to control the interaction forces with the environment is demonstrated. A new approach for the task space decomposition needed for hybrid position/force control is developed, motivated by constrained system formalism and linear algebra methods. The application of the inverse dynamics control is illustrated for several exemplary mechanical systems and for a wide variety of robotic systems; including robots constrained by the environment, robots with flexible joints, multiple robot arms, etc. Pure nonlinear inverse dynamics control is considered, as well as its robust version, and the approximate solutions to the problem. The results of numerical simulations and real-time experiments are presented to support the analytical developments. More than 200 literature sources are referred to in the book. Many mechanical systems considered in engineering practice are dynamically similar to the class of systems considered in this book. The new applications for inverse dynamics solutions arise in such fields as high precision robot manipulator control, flight control, biomechanics, vehicle control, and in many related areas. Therefore, the book can be of interest to specialists involved in developing control laws for a large variety of mechanical systems.

Book Robot Force Control

Download or read book Robot Force Control written by Bruno Siciliano and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the fundamental requirements for the success of a robot task is the capability to handle interaction between manipulator and environment. The quantity that describes the state of interaction more effectively is the contact force at the manipulator's end effector. High values of contact force are generally undesirable since they may stress both the manipulator and the manipulated object; hence the need to seek for effective force control strategies. The book provides a theoretical and experimental treatment of robot interaction control. In the framework of model-based operational space control, stiffness control and impedance control are presented as the basic strategies for indirect force control; a key feature is the coverage of six-degree-of-freedom interaction tasks and manipulator kinematic redundancy. Then, direct force control strategies are presented which are obtained from motion control schemes suitably modified by the closure of an outer force regulation feedback loop. Finally, advanced force and position control strategies are presented which include passivity-based, adaptive and output feedback control schemes. Remarkably, all control schemes are experimentally tested on a setup consisting of a seven-joint industrial robot with open control architecture and force/torque sensor. The topic of robot force control is not treated in depth in robotics textbooks, in spite of its crucial importance for practical manipulation tasks. In the few books addressing this topic, the material is often limited to single-degree-of-freedom tasks. On the other hand, several results are available in the robotics literature but no dedicated monograph exists. The book is thus aimed at filling this gap by providing a theoretical and experimental treatment of robot force control.

Book Rigid Body Dynamics Algorithms

Download or read book Rigid Body Dynamics Algorithms written by Roy Featherstone and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-10 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rigid Body Dynamics Algorithms presents the subject of computational rigid-body dynamics through the medium of spatial 6D vector notation. It explains how to model a rigid-body system and how to analyze it, and it presents the most comprehensive collection of the best rigid-body dynamics algorithms to be found in a single source. The use of spatial vector notation greatly reduces the volume of algebra which allows systems to be described using fewer equations and fewer quantities. It also allows problems to be solved in fewer steps, and solutions to be expressed more succinctly. In addition algorithms are explained simply and clearly, and are expressed in a compact form. The use of spatial vector notation facilitates the implementation of dynamics algorithms on a computer: shorter, simpler code that is easier to write, understand and debug, with no loss of efficiency.

Book Interaction Control of Robot Manipulators

Download or read book Interaction Control of Robot Manipulators written by Ciro Natale and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-01-08 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robot interaction control is one of the most challenging targets for industrial robotics. While it would provide the robotic systems with a high degree of autonomy, its effectiveness is limited by the complexity of this problem and by the necessity of special sensors (six-dof force sensors). On the other hand, the control methodologies to be adopted for addressing this problem can be considered mature and well-assessed. All the known interaction control strategies (e.g. impedance, direct force control) are tackled and reshuffled in a geometrically consistent way for simplification of the task specification and enhancement of the execution performance. This book represents the first step towards the application of theoretical results at an industrial level; in fact each proposed control algorithm is experimentally tested here on an industrial robotic setup.

Book Handling Uncertainty and Variability in Robot Control

Download or read book Handling Uncertainty and Variability in Robot Control written by Nirmal Giftsun and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amidst a lot of research in motion planning and control in concern with robotic applications, the mankind has never reached a point yet, where the robots are perfectly functional and autonomous in dynamic settings. Though it is controversial to discuss about the necessity of such robots, it is very important to address the issues that stop us from achieving such a level of autonomy. Industrial robots have evolved to be very reliable and highly productive with more than 1.5 million operational robots in a variety of industries. These robots work in static settings and they literally do what they are programmed for specific usecases, though the robots are flexible enough to be programmed for a variety of tasks. This research work makes an attempt to address these issues that separate both these settings in a profound way with special focus on uncertainties. Practical impossibilities of precise sensing abilities lead to a variety of uncertainties in scenarios where the robot is mobile or the environment is dynamic. This work focuses on developing smart strategies to improve the ability to handle uncertainties robustly in humanoid and industrial robots. First, we focus on a dynamical obstacle avoidance framework proposed for industrial robots equipped with skin sensors for reactivity. Path planning and motion control are usually formalized as separate problems in robotics. High dimensional configuration spaces, changing environment and uncertainties do not allow to plan real-time motion ahead of time requiring a controller to execute the planned trajectory. The fundamental inability to unify both these problems has led to handle the planned trajectory amidst perturbations and unforeseen obstacles using various trajectory execution and deformation mechanisms. The proposed framework uses 'Stack of Tasks', a hierarchical controller using proximity information to avoid obstacles. Experiments are performed on a UR5 robot to check the validity of the framework and its potential use for collaborative robot applications. Second, we focus on a strategy to model inertial parameters uncertainties in a balance controller for legged robots. Model-based control has become more and more popular in the legged robots community in the last ten years. The key idea is to exploit a model of the system to compute precise motor commands that result in the desired motion. This allows to improve the quality of the motion tracking, while using lower feedback gains, leading so to higher compliance. However, the main flaw of this approach is typically its lack of robustness to modeling errors. In this paper we focus on the robustness of inverse-dynamics control to errors in the inertial parameters of the robot. We assume these parameters to be known, but only with a certain accuracy. We then propose a computationally-efficient optimization-based controller that ensures the balance of the robot despite these uncertainties. We used the proposed controller in simulation to perform different reaching tasks with the HRP-2 humanoid robot, in the presence of various modeling errors. Comparisons against a standard inverse-dynamics controller through hundreds of simulations show the superiority of the proposed controller in ensuring the robot balance.
