Book Dynamics Modelling of a Multi Body Unicycle in Three dimensional Space

Download or read book Dynamics Modelling of a Multi Body Unicycle in Three dimensional Space written by Buddhika Lakmal Aththanayaka and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-balanced unicycle has received the attention of researchers for decades. Over the years, unicycle models with several different assemblies have been introduced by them. A thorough analysis of the dynamics of a unicycle with a frame and a rotating disk is discussed in this research. A torque applied to the rolling wheel maintains the longitudinal stability of the system by moving forward and backward. The rotating disk mounted on the top of the frame maintains the lateral stability of the system by providing a torque. Due to this torque the rolling wheel precess and change its yaw direction. The components of the unicycle assembly are addressed separately for the analysis of the dynamics. First, only the rolling wheel considered. Then, the rolling wheel and the frame are analyzed. Finally, the completed assembly with the rotating disk considered to build the dynamics model. In each of these cases both Newton-Euler and Lagrangian methods are used to obtain the dynamics equations for the unicycle.

Book Dynamic Simulation of Multibody Systems in Simultaneous  Indeterminate Contact and Impact with Friction

Download or read book Dynamic Simulation of Multibody Systems in Simultaneous Indeterminate Contact and Impact with Friction written by Adrian Rodriguez and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research is focused on improving the solutions obtained using theory in contact and impact modeling. A theoretical framework is developed which can simulate the performance of dynamic systems within a real world environment. This environment involves conditions, such as contact, impact and friction. Numerical simulation provides an easy way to perform numerous iterations with varying conditions, which is more cost effective than building equivalent experimental setups. The developed framework will serve as a tool for engineers and scientists to gain some insight on predicting how a system may behave. The current field of research in multibody system dynamics lacks a framework for modeling simultaneous, indeterminate contact and impact with friction. This special class of contact and impact problems is the major focus of this research. This research develops a framework, which contributes to the existing literature. The contact and impact problems examined in this work are indeterminate with respect to the impact forces. This is problematic because the impact forces are needed to determine the slip-state of contact and impact points. The novelty of the developed approach relies on the formation of constraints among the velocities of the impact points. These constraints are used to address the indeterminate nature of the collisions encountered. This approach strictly adheres to the assumptions of rigid body modeling in conjunction with the notion that the configuration of the system does not change in the short time span of the collision. These assumptions imply that the impact Jacobian is constant during the collision, which enforces a kinematic relationship between the impact points. The developed framework is used to address simultaneous, indeterminate contact and impact problems with friction. In the preliminary stages of this research, an iterative method, which incorporated an optimization function was used obtain the solutions for numerical solution to the collision. In an effort to improve the time and accuracy of the results, the iterative method was replaced with an analytical approach and implemented with the constraint formulation to achieve more energetically consistent solutions (i.e. there are no unusual gains in energy after the impact). The details of why this claim is valid will be discussed in more detail in this dissertation. The analytical framework was developed for planar contact and impact problems, while a numerical framework is developed for three-dimensional (3D) problems. The modeling of friction in 3D presents some challenging issues that are well documented in the literature, which make it difficult to apply an analytical framework. Simulations are conducted for a planar ball, planar rocking block problem, Newton's Cradle, 3D sphere, and 3D rocking block. Some examples serve as benchmark problems, in which the results are validated using experimental data.

Book Formation Control of Multi Agent Systems

Download or read book Formation Control of Multi Agent Systems written by Marcio de Queiroz and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-04-08 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive guide to formation control of multi-agent systems using rigid graph theory This book is the first to provide a comprehensive and unified treatment of the subject of graph rigidity-based formation control of multi-agent systems. Such systems are relevant to a variety of emerging engineering applications, including unmanned robotic vehicles and mobile sensor networks. Graph theory, and rigid graphs in particular, provides a natural tool for describing the multi-agent formation shape as well as the inter-agent sensing, communication, and control topology. Beginning with an introduction to rigid graph theory, the contents of the book are organized by the agent dynamic model (single integrator, double integrator, and mechanical dynamics) and by the type of formation problem (formation acquisition, formation manoeuvring, and target interception). The book presents the material in ascending level of difficulty and in a self-contained manner; thus, facilitating reader understanding. Key features: Uses the concept of graph rigidity as the basis for describing the multi-agent formation geometry and solving formation control problems. Considers different agent models and formation control problems. Control designs throughout the book progressively build upon each other. Provides a primer on rigid graph theory. Combines theory, computer simulations, and experimental results. Formation Control of Multi-Agent Systems: A Graph Rigidity Approach is targeted at researchers and graduate students in the areas of control systems and robotics. Prerequisite knowledge includes linear algebra, matrix theory, control systems, and nonlinear systems.

Book Intelligent Robotics and Applications

Download or read book Intelligent Robotics and Applications written by Honghai Liu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-10-21 with total page 785 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The market demand for skills, knowledge and adaptability have positioned robotics to be an important field in both engineering and science. One of the most highly visible applications of robotics has been the robotic automation of many industrial tasks in factories. In the future, a new era will come in which we will see a greater success for robotics in non-industrial environments. In order to anticipate a wider deployment of intelligent and autonomous robots for tasks such as manufacturing, healthcare, ent- tainment, search and rescue, surveillance, exploration, and security missions, it is essential to push the frontier of robotics into a new dimension, one in which motion and intelligence play equally important roles. The 2010 International Conference on Intelligent Robotics and Applications (ICIRA 2010) was held in Shanghai, China, November 10–12, 2010. The theme of the c- ference was “Robotics Harmonizing Life,” a theme that reflects the ever-growing interest in research, development and applications in the dynamic and exciting areas of intelligent robotics. These volumes of Springer’s Lecture Notes in Artificial Intel- gence and Lecture Notes in Computer Science contain 140 high-quality papers, which were selected at least for the papers in general sessions, with a 62% acceptance rate Traditionally, ICIRA 2010 holds a series of plenary talks, and we were fortunate to have two such keynote speakers who shared their expertise with us in diverse topic areas spanning the rang of intelligent robotics and application activities.

Book Numerical Integration and Optimization of Motions for Multibody Dynamic Systems

Download or read book Numerical Integration and Optimization of Motions for Multibody Dynamic Systems written by Joan Aguilar Mayans and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis considers the optimization and simulation of motions involving rigid body systems. It does so in three distinct parts, with the following topics: optimization and analysis of human high-diving motions, efficient numerical integration of rigid body dynamics with contacts, and motion optimization of a two-link robot arm using Finite-Time Lyapunov Analysis.The first part introduces the concept of eigenpostures, which we use to simulate and analyze human high-diving motions. Eigenpostures are used in two different ways: first, to reduce the complexity of the optimal control problem that we solve to obtain such motions, and second, to generate an eigenposture space to which we map existing real world motions to better analyze them. The benefits of using eigenpostures are showcased through different examples.The second part reviews an extensive list of integration algorithms used for the integration of rigid body dynamics. We analyze the accuracy and stability of the different integrators in the three-dimensional space and the rotation space SO(3). Integrators with an accuracy higher than first order perform more efficiently than integrators with first order accuracy, even in the presence of contacts.The third part uses Finite-time Lyapunov Analysis to optimize motions for a two-link robot arm. Finite-Time Lyapunov Analysis diagnoses the presence of time-scale separation in the dynamics of the optimized motion and provides the information and methodology for obtaining an accurate approximation to the optimal solution, avoiding the complications that timescale separation causes for alternative solution methods.
