Interval Motion Accuracy Reliability Analysis of Manipulators Based on Chebyshev Inclusion Polynomial

Motion accuracy of space manipulators has direct effects on the ability of the systems to perform specified tasks. However, some design variables are inherently interval parameters due to uncertainties in geometric structures, material properties, and so on. This paper presents Chebyshev inclusion function(CIF) for approximating the dynamic responses function of parametrically excited systems. Motion accuracy reliability(MAR) of space manipulators was evaluated based on mechanism reliability analysis methods and interval uncertainty model. To illustrate the accuracy of the proposed method, a two-link manipulator with interval parameters was demonstrated. The results showed that the proposed method required much fewer samples to obtain more accurate reliability compared with the traditional Monte Carlo simulation(MCS). Finally, the sensitivity analysis was performed to facilitate the optimization design by using global sensitivity analysis.

考虑不确定参数的齿轮副非线性动态特性分析

为分析系统动力学参数的不确定性对齿轮副动态响应的影响情况,建立含齿侧间隙和时变啮合刚度的齿轮副动力学模型,并运用区间谐波平衡法分析了考虑区间系统参数的齿轮副非线性系统动态响应。区间谐波平衡法主要是将谐波平衡法与Chebyshev区间包含函数相结合,通过该方法对比分析了两种不同阻尼情况下的齿轮系统频域响应情况。结果表明:在弱阻尼(ζ)情况下,系统存在明显的非线性跳跃现象,而且系统频域响应对刚度参数和阻尼参数的波动性不敏感,而对激励参数和齿侧间隙的波动性敏感。而当ζ=0.1时,系统响应的非线性跳跃现象消失,系统响应幅值降低。刚度参数、载荷参数和齿侧间隙的波动性对所分析区域内的系统响应均有明显影响。阻尼参数的波动性对系统响应的影响则集中于主共振区域。
