New Formulation

Considering slippage in the end-effectors of a set of two cooperating manipulators grasping an object, this paper presents a new dynamic modeling and control synthesis of grasping phenomenon. This dynamic modeling is based on a new formulation for frictional contact where equality and inequality equations in the standard Coulomb Friction model are converted all to a single second order differential equation with switching coefficients. Accuracy of the friction model is verified by comparing its results with those of SimMech. Then equations of motion are reduced to conventional form for nonconstrained system. Assuming the new reduced order system to be BIBO, internal stability of the whole system is analyzed. In the control synthesis of the system a multi phase controller is utilized to control the trajectory tracking of the object as well as slippage control of the end-effectors on the object surfaces. For the proposed controller, a proof is given for system stability and its performance and robustness are shown numerically. The results show superiority of the method and its desirable and excellent performance.

Teaching Operation

This paper shows the design and modeling of an end effector with a bidirectional telescopic mechanism to allow a surgical assistant robot to hold and handle surgical instruments. It also presents a force-free control algorithm for the direct teaching of end effectors. The bidirectional telescopic mechanism can actively transmit force both upwards and downwards by staggering the wires on both sides. In order to estimate and control torque via motor current without a force/torque sensor, the gravity model and friction model of the device are derived through repeated experiments. The LuGre model is applied to the friction model, and the static and dynamic parameters are obtained using a curve fitting function and a genetic algorithm. Direct teaching control is designed using a force-free control algorithm that compensates for the estimated torque from the motor current for gravity and friction, and then converts it into a position control input. Direct teaching operation sensitivity is verified through hand-guiding experiments.

In order to accurately predict the fatigue life and wear life of a belt, the various stresses that the belt is subjected to and the belt slip over the pulleys must be accurately calculated. In this paper, the effect of material and geometric parameters on the steady-state stresses (including normal, tangential and axial stresses), average belt slip for a flat belt, and belt-drive energy efficiency is studied using a high-fidelity flexible multibody dynamics model of the belt-drive. The belt’s rubber matrix is modeled using three-dimensional brick elements and the belt’s reinforcements are modeled using one dimensional truss elements. Friction between the belt and the pulleys is modeled using an asperity-based Coulomb friction model. The pulleys are modeled as cylindrical rigid bodies. The equations of motion are integrated using a time-accurate explicit solution procedure. The material parameters studied are the belt-pulley friction coefficient and the belt axial stiffness and damping. The geometric parameters studied are the belt thickness and the pulleys’ centers distance.

Lumped Mass

It is of great significance to study the dynamic characteristics of twin ball screw (TBS) feed system to improve the precision of gantry-type dual-driven computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools. In this paper, an equivalent dynamic model of the TBS feed system is established utilizing lumped mass method considering the stiffness of joints. Equivalent axial stiffness of screw-nut joints and bearing joints are both calculated by Hertz contact theory. Furthermore, a friction model is proposed because the friction force of the screw nut affects the stiffness of the joints. Then, the friction parameters are obtained by using the nonlinear system identification method. Meanwhile, a finite element model (FEM) is developed to assess the dynamic characteristics of TBS feed system under the stiffness of joints. Finally, validation experiments are conducted, and the results show that the positions of the nut and the velocities of worktable greatly affect the dynamic characteristics of the TBS feed system. Compared with the theoretical calculation, FEM and experiments indicate that the dynamic modeling proposed in this article can reach a higher accuracy.

Efficient, precise dynamic modeling and control of complex underwater towed systems has become a research focus in the field of multibody dynamics. In this paper, based on finite segment model of cable, by defining the new state vectors and deducing the new transfer equations of underwater towed systems, a new highly efficient method for dynamic modeling and simulation of underwater towed systems is presented and the pay-out/reel-in process of towed cable is studied. The computational efficiency and numerical stability of the proposed method are discussed. When using the method to study the dynamics of underwater towed systems, it avoids the global dynamic equations of system, and simplifies solving procedure. Irrespective of the degree of freedom of underwater towed system, the matrices involved in the proposed method are always very small, which greatly improve the computational efficiency and avoids the computing difficulties caused by too high matrix orders for complex underwater towed systems. Formulations of the method as well as numerical simulations are given to validate the proposed method.
