In recent years there is a growing trend on integrating Computer Aid Design (CAD), Computer Aid Manufacturing (CAM) and Computer Aided Inspection (CAI). This thesis presents a new shape adaptive motion control system that integrates part measurement with motion control. The proposed system consists of five blocks: surface measurement; surface reconstruction; tool trajectory planning; axis motion control and part alignment In this thesis, the key technology used in surface measurement and surface reconstruction is spatial spectral analysis. In the surface measurement block, a new special spectrum comparison method is proposed to find out an optimal digitizing frequency. In the surface reconstruction block, different interpolation methods are compared in the spatial spectral domain. A spatial spectral B-Spline method is presented. In the tool trajectory planning block, a method is developed to select the motion profile first and then determine the tool locations according to the reconstructed surface in order to improve the accuracy of the planned path. In the part alignment, a three-point alignment method is presented to align the part coordinates with the machine coordinates. Based on the proposed methods, a software package is developed and implemented on the polishing robot constructed at Ryerson University. The effectiveness of the proposed system has been demonstrated by the experiment on edge polishing. In this experiment, the shape of the part edges is measured first, and then constructed as a wire-frame CAD model, based on which tool trajectory is planned to control the tool to polish the edges.

We study problems of intercepting single and multiple invasive intruders on a boundary of a planar region by employing a team of autonomous unmanned surface vehicles. First, the problem of intercepting a single intruder has been studied and then the proposed strategy has been applied to intercepting multiple intruders on the region boundary. Based on the proposed decentralised motion control algorithm and decision making strategy, each autonomous vehicle intercepts any intruder, which tends to leave the region by detecting the most vulnerable point of the boundary. An efficient and simple mathematical rules based control algorithm for navigating the autonomous vehicles on the boundary of the see region is developed. The proposed algorithm is computationally simple and easily implementable in real life intruder interception applications. In this paper, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a real-time solution to the considered problem of intruder interception. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed by computer simulations with both single and multiple intruders.

Abstract An optimization technique based on the well known Dynamic Programming Algorithm is applied to the motion control trajectories and path planning of multi-jointed fingers in dextrous hand designs. A three fingered hand with each finger containing four degrees of freedom is considered for analysis. After generating the kinematics and dynamics equations of such a hand, optimum values of the joints torques and velocities are computed such that the finger-tips of the hand are moved through their prescribed trajectories with the least time or/and energy to reach the object being grasped. Finally, optimal as well as feasible solutions for the multi-jointed fingers are identified and the results are presented.
