This paper presents the modeling problem connected with the autonomous transport vehicle designed at Hochschule Ravensburg-Weingarten. The forward and inverse kinematics problem of eight-wheeled autonomous transport vehicle have been formulated and solved, additionally examples of simulation results representing the changes of individual motion parameters have been presented. Contact phenomenon between foundation and drive wheel has been taken into account in the kinematics model. Motion trajectory and velocity of the selected point belonging to the platform have been intended while the inverse kinematics problem has been solved. The forward kinematics problem has been worked out in order to verify correctness of the studied kinematics model. The presented simulation results point out compatibility of the worked out kinematics model of investigated object. The worked out models allow carrying out analysis of object motion through simulation investigations on the basis of proposed computational model.

This paper introduces a multi-task 4 DOF pole climbing/manipulating robotic mechanism. A hybrid serial/parallel mechanism, providing 2 translations and 2 rotations, have been designed as the main part of the mechanism. This robotic mechanism can travel along tubular structures with bends, branches and step changes in cross section. It is also able to perform manipulation, repair and maintenance tasks after reaching the target point on the structure. After introducing the mechanism, a kinematics model and the forward and inverse kinematics as well as the workspace analysis of the mechanism are presented.

A new hybrid cable-driven manipulator is introduced. The manipulator is composed of a Cartesian mechanism to provide three translational degrees of freedom and a cable system to drive the mechanism. The end-effector is driven by three rotational motors through the cables. The cable drive system in this mechanism is self-stressed meaning that the pre-tension of the cables which keep them taut is provided internally. In other words, no redundant actuator or external force is required to maintain the tensile force in the cables. This simplifies the operation of the mechanism by reducing the number of actuators and also avoids their continuous static loading. It also eliminates the redundant work of the actuators which is usually present in cable-driven mechanisms. Forward and inverse kinematics problems are solved and shown to have explicit solutions. Static and stiffness analysis are also performed. The effects of the cable’s compliance on the stiffness of the mechanism is modeled and presented by a characteristic cable length. The characteristic cable length is calculated and analyzed in representative locations of the workspace.

Abstract The human spine is a sophisticated mechanism consisting of 24 vertebrae which are arranged in a series-chain between the pelvis and the skull. By careful articulation of these vertebrae, a human being achieves fine motion of the skull. The spine can be modeled as a series-chain with 24 rigid links, the vertebrae, where each vertebra has three degrees-of-freedom relative to an adjacent vertebra. From the studies in the literature, the vertebral geometry and the range of motion between adjacent vertebrae are well-known. The objectives of this paper are to present a kinematic model of the spine using the available data in the literature and an algorithm to compute the inter vertebral joint angles given the position and orientation of the skull. This algorithm is based on the observation that the backbone can be described analytically by a space curve which is used to find the joint solutions..

This paper introduces a new concept for robotic search and rescue systems. This system uses a rapidly deployable cable robot to augment existing search and rescue mobile robots. This system can greatly increase the range of mobile robots as well as provide overhead views of the disaster site, allowing rescue workers to reach survivors as quickly as possible while minimizing the danger posed to rescue workers. In addition to the system concept, this paper presents a novel kinematic structure for the cable robot, allowing simple translation-only motion (with moment-resisting capability) and easy forward and inverse kinematics for a 3-DOF spatial manipulator. Also, a deployment sequence is described, a rapid calibration algorithm is presented and the workspace of the manipulator is investigated.

AbstractThis article presents a description and methodology for building a kinematics model for the formation of two-wheeled mobile robots transporting a beam using Denavit–Hartenberg notation. The simple and inverse kinematics tasks of this formation were solved. Solutions of kinematics tasks are presented in junction coordinates and global coordinates. The obtained results were simulated using the Matlab–Simulink package together with animation of the solution using a programmed emulator of robot work.

Aerospace robotic arms have important applications in aerospace engineering (capture satellite, develop the technology of extra-vehicle activity (EVA), etc.) This paper first introduces the development and background of the Aerospace Robotic Arm. In later sections, a kinematics model of a Six-DOF manipulator is built based on DenavitHartenberg(D-H) method, then, the paper discusses an inverse kinematics solving method of the manipulator. At last, we show the simulation by integrating the use of SolidWorks, Matlab, and a number of their modules.

The paper presents an innovative hexapod walking robot built with 3-UPU parallel mechanism. In the robot, the parallel mechanism is used as both an actuator to generate walking and also a connecting body to connect two groups of three legs, thus enabling the robot to walk with simple gait by very few motors. In this paper, forward and inverse kinematics solutions are obtained. The workspace of the parallel mechanism is analyzed using limit boundary search method. The walking stability of the robot is analyzed, which yields the robot’s maximum step length. The gait planning of the hexapod walking robot is studied for walking on both flat and uneven terrains. The new robot, combining the advantages of parallel robot and walking robot, has a large carrying capacity, strong passing ability, flexible turning ability, and simple gait control for its deployment for uneven terrains.
