NEW TYPE OF LINEAR ULTRASONIC MOTOR WITH TWO DEGREES OF FREEDOM USING LONGITUDINAL AND BENDING MODE

A new type of linear ultrasonic motor with two degrees of freedom (DOF) motion is presented. The concept of the new typical motor is based on the combination of a longitudinal and two bending modes. The construction and the operational principle of motor are described, and the elliptical motion of the driving point of the actuator is proved. Meanwhile, a prototype linear motor is designed by using the finite element method (FEM) and is constructed for experiments. The vibration modes are tested with the laser doppler vibrometer (PSV-300F), and the experimental results prove that the design requirements on the mode shape of the actuator and nature frequency are satisfied. The test run of the motor indicates that the operational principle of the motor and the design results are correct, and the output properties are also tested.

Impedance force control for position controlled robotic manipulators under the constraint of unknown environments

A force control strategy for position controlled robotic manipulators is presented. On line force feedback data are employed to estimate the local shape of the unknown constraint. The estimated vectors are used to generate the virtual reference trajectory for the target impedance model that is driven by the force error to produce command position. By following the command position trajectory the robotic manipulator can follow the unknown constraint surface while keeping an acceptable force error in a manner depicted by the target impedance model. Computer simulation on a 3 linked planar manipulator and experimental studies on an Adept 3, an SCARA type robotic manipulator, are conducted to verify the force tracking capability of the proposed control strategy.

Design of a Mobile Mechanism for Missing Miner Search Robots in Underground Mines

A mobile mechanism with four tracked-units for a missing miner search robot (MMSR) is presented, with a design based on the terrain features and atrocious environment of an underground mine. Its structure and working prin- ciple is discussed. The four tracked-units are controlled independently and driven cooperatively. By means of two DC motors being controlled respectively, one tracked-unit can accomplish two types of driving mode: tracked travel and in- tegral unit legged rotation (IULR), forming a track-legged compound function mechanism. Its capabilities of surmount- ing obstacles and its toppling stability in underground mines have also been analyzed. The results show that the mobile mechanism can directly surmount an obstacle of the height less than the length of one tracked-unit and get across a raceway with a span less than the length of one tracked-unit by using tracked travel and IULR. Its unstable slope angle is 51.3°. Toppling stability is determined by its structural size, moving direction and slope angle. IULR of four tracked-units can adjust the robot’s posture and then enhance toppling stability or assist in surmounting obstacles. Its track-legged compound function mechanism makes it suitable for working in underground mines.

Dynamic modelling and PFL-based trajectory tracking control for underactuated cable-driven truss-like manipulator

In recent years,an innovative underactuated robot was developed,named as underactuated cable-driven trusslike manipulator(UCTM),to be suitable in aerospace applications.However,there has been strong consensus that the stabilization of planar underactuated manipulators without gravity is a great challenge since the system includes a second order nonholonomic constraint and most classical control methods are not suitable for this kind of system.Furthermore,the complexity of the truss-like structure results in tremendous difficulty of computational complicacy and high nonlinearity during dynamic modelling in addition to controller design.It is paramount to solve these difficulties for UCTM's future applications.To solve the above difficulties,this paper presents a dynamic modelling method for UCTM and a trajectory tracking control method based on partial feedback linearization(PFL)that fulfills the control goal of moving UCTM from its original position to a desired position by tracking a given trajectory of the joint angles.To achieve this,a model equivalent method is proposed to make UCTM equivalent with a three-link manipulator in the sense of dynamic behavior.Then the Lagrangian equation combined with complex vector method is proposed in the dynamic modelling process of UCTM,which simplifies the derivation procedure.Based on the established dynamic model,a coordinate transformation method is proposed to transform the control force matrix into the conventional form of an underactuated system,so that the control force can be separated from the unactuated term.The PFL method in combination with the LQR control method is then proposed to realize the targets that the joint angles can track given desired trajectory.Simulation experiments are conducted to verify the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Adaptive trajectory tracking control of two-wheeled self-balance robot

Wheeled mobile robot is one of the well-known nonholonomic systems. A two-wheeled sell-balance robot is taken as the research objective. This paper carried out a detailed force analysis of the robot and established a non-linear dynamics model. An adaptive tracking controller for the kinematic model of a nonhotonomic mobile robot with unknown parameters is also proposed. Using control Lyapunov function （CLF）, the controller＇s global asymptotic stability has been proven. The adaptive trajectory tracking controller decreases the disturbance in the course of tracking control and enhances the real-time control characteristics. The simulation result indicated that the wheeled mobile robot tracking can be effectively controlled.

Optimal trajectory planning for natural biped walking locomotion

An optimal trajectory planning method has been proposed for the walking locomotion of a biped mechanical system with thighs, shanks and small feet, which is modelled as a 3 DOF link system consisting of an inverted pendulum and a 2 DOF swing leg. The locomotion of swing and supporting legs is solved by the optimal trajectory planning based on function approximation. The optimal trajectory planning based on function approximation. The optimal walking locomotion solution with minimum square of input torque exhibits a natural walking gait with one step period of 0.64 s similar to the human walking gait by using the link parameters of an adult’s leg. It is concluded from the computation results that the method proposed in this paper has been proved to be an effective tool for solving the optimal walking locomotion and joint control torque problems for a 3 DOF biped mechanism; when the ankle joint of the supporting leg is a passive joint, a nearly, optimal walking solution can be obtained at t 1=0.49 s and t 2=10 s, and however, when the knee is a passive joint, it is impossible to obtain a solution which satisfies the constraint condition; for the link parameters used in this paper, the length of an optimal stride is 0.3 m.

Structured trajectory planning of collision-free lane change using the vehicle-driver integration data

In this paper, the structured trajectory planning of lane change in collision-free road environment is studied and validated using the vehicle-driver integration data, and a new trajectory planning model for lane change is proposed based on linear offset and sine function to balance driver comfort and vehicle dynamics. The trajectory curvature of the proposed model is continuous without mutation, and the zero-based curvature at the starting and end points during lane change assures the motion direction of end points in parallel with the lane line. The field experiment are designed to collect the vehicle-driver integration data, such as steering angle, brake pedal angel and accelerator pedal angel. The correction Correlation analysis of lane-changing maneuver and influencing variables is conducted to obtain the significant variables that can be used to calibrate and test the proposed model. The results demonstrate that vehicle velocity and Y-axis acceleration have significant effects on the lane-changing maneuver, so that the model recalibrated by the samples of different velocity ranges and Y-axis accelerations has better fitted performance compared with the model calibrated by the sample trajectory. In addition, the proposed model presents a decreasing tendency of the lane change trajectory fitted MAE with the increase of time span of calibrating samples at the starting stage.
