Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph addresses problems of: • nonlinear control, estimation and filtering for robotic manipulators (multi-degree-of freedom rigid-link robots, flexible-link robots, underactuated, redundant and cooperating manipulators and closed-chain robotic mechanisms); and• nonlinear control, estimation and filtering for autonomous robotic vehicles operating on the ground, in the air, and on and under water, independently and in cooperating groups. The book is a thorough treatment of the entire range of applications of robotic manipulators and autonomous vehicles. The nonlinear control and estimation methods it develops can be used generically, being suitable for a wide range of robotic systems. Such methods can improve robustness, precision and fault-tolerance in robotic manipulators and vehicles at the same time as enabling the reliable functioning of these systems under variable conditions, model uncertainty and external perturbations.

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 Robot Manipulators

Download or read book Robot Manipulators written by Marco Ceccarelli and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book we have grouped contributions in 28 chapters from several authors all around the world on the several aspects and challenges of research and applications of robots with the aim to show the recent advances and problems that still need to be considered for future improvements of robot success in worldwide frames. Each chapter addresses a specific area of modeling, design, and application of robots but with an eye to give an integrated view of what make a robot a unique modern system for many different uses and future potential applications. Main attention has been focused on design issues as thought challenging for improving capabilities and further possibilities of robots for new and old applications, as seen from today technologies and research programs. Thus, great attention has been addressed to control aspects that are strongly evolving also as function of the improvements in robot modeling, sensors, servo-power systems, and informatics. But even other aspects are considered as of fundamental challenge both in design and use of robots with improved performance and capabilities, like for example kinematic design, dynamics, vision integration.

Book TIP Trajectory Tracking of Flexible joint Manipulators

Download or read book TIP Trajectory Tracking of Flexible joint Manipulators written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In most robot applications, the control of the manipulators end-effector along a specified desired trajectory is the main concern. In these applications, the end-effector (tip) of the manipulator is required to follow a given trajectory. Several methods have been so far proposed for the motion control of robot manipulators. However, most of these control methods ignore either joint friction or joint elasticity which can be caused by the transmission systems (e.g. belts and gearboxes). This study aims at development of a comprehensive control strategy for the tip-trajectory tracking of flexible-joint robot manipulators. While the proposed control strategy takes into account the effect of the friction and the elasticity in the joints, it also provides a highly accurate motion for the manipulators end-effector. During this study several approaches have been developed, implemented and verified experimentally/numerically for the tip trajectory tracking of robot manipulators. To compensate for the elasticity of the joints two methods have been proposed; they are a composite controller whose design is based on the singular perturbation theory and integral manifold concept, and a swarm controller which is a novel biologically-inspired controller and its concept is inspired by the movement of real biological systems such as flocks of birds and schools of fishes. To compensate for the friction in the joints two new approaches have been also introduced. They are a composite compensation strategy which consists of the non-linear dynamic LuGre model and a Proportional-Derivative (PD) compensator, and a novel friction compensation method whose design is based on the Work-Energy principle. Each of these proposed controllers has some advantages and drawbacks, and hence, depending on the application of the robot manipulator, they can be employed. For instance, the Work-Energy method has a simpler form than the LuGre-PD compensator and can be easily implemented in industrial applicat.

Book Adaptive Control for Robotic Manipulators

Download or read book Adaptive Control for Robotic Manipulators written by Dan Zhang and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-02-03 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The robotic mechanism and its controller make a complete system. As the robotic mechanism is reconfigured, the control system has to be adapted accordingly. The need for the reconfiguration usually arises from the changing functional requirements. This book will focus on the adaptive control of robotic manipulators to address the changed conditions. The aim of the book is to summarise and introduce the state-of-the-art technologies in the field of adaptive control of robotic manipulators in order to improve the methodologies on the adaptive control of robotic manipulators. Advances made in the past decades are described in the book, including adaptive control theories and design, and application of adaptive control to robotic manipulators.

Book Dynamics and Control of Light Weight Flexible Manipulators

Download or read book Dynamics and Control of Light Weight Flexible Manipulators written by Amor Jnifene and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current robot manipulators are controlled using methods that do not take into account the links and joints flexibility. Consequently, tasks are usually carried in a slow fashion. The objective of this research is to improve the performance of light weight flexible manipulators by developing dynamic models and control strategies that include the effects of the links flexibility. Toward achieving this objective, the dynamic model of a single link flexible manipulator has been developed. Two hermit cubic functions are used in conjunction with the deflection and the slope at the tip of the link in order to express the deflection at any point along the link. The model is used to simulate the response of the single link manipulator and its ability to follow various trajectories under collocated control. Even though collocated control such as the computed torque method leads to asymptotic stability in the case of rigid link manipulators, the end point of the single link flexible manipulator has shown sustained oscillations under this type of control. In order to improve the performance of the single link and reduce the tip deflection, dynamic stiffening has been added to the link by using the angular position of a point along the link as the controlled variable. This control method is referred to as the non collocated control. Simulations of the robot motion under non collocated control has shown a significant reduction in the position error of the end point. In order to increase the damping of the flexible link, a new approach referred to as the Computed Torque/Delayed Deflection (CTDD) has been used. The CTDD approach combines the non collocated control with a delayed deflection at the point being used for non collocation feedback. The fastest decay in the end point vibrations was obtained when the delay time is selected to be half the period of the lowest frequency in the system. The CTDD has been extended to the case of a two link flexible manipulator. Simulations results for the tracking performance of the two link flexible manipulator have been carried out using two paths: A straight line path and a four points path. The advantages of using the CTDD approach are outlined by comparing its performance to those of a collocated control (computed torque method) and the non collocated control.
