DISTRIBUTED CONTROL ARCHITECTURE OF AN OMNI-DIRECTIONAL AUTONOMOUS GUIDED VEHICLE

On distributed mechatronics controller for omni-directional autonomous guided vehicles

Purpose – In this paper, two omni-directional mobile vehicles are designed and controlled implementing distributed mechatronics controllers. Omni-directionality is the ability of mobile vehicle to move instantaneously in any direction. It is achieved by implementing Mecanum wheels in one vehicle and conventional wheels in another vehicle. The control requirements for omni-directionality using t...

Design of a Hybrid Powered Autonomous Omni-Directional Vehicle

OPTIMIZED FUZZY CONTROL DESIGN OF AN AUTONOMOUS UNDERWATER VEHICLE

In this study, the roll, yaw and depth fuzzy control of an Au- tonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) are addressed. Yaw and roll angles are regulated only using their errors and rates, but due to the complexity of depth dynamic channel, additional pitch rate quantity is used to improve the depth loop performance. The discussed AUV has four aps at the rear of the vehicle as actuators. Two rule bases...

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...

Holonomic Omni-Directional Vehicle with New Omni-Wheel Mechanism

In this paper, we focus on the “Vuton-II”, a new omni-directional vehicle developed as a transport vehicle to operate within factories, hospitals, and warehouses. This vehicle is composed of three or more “Omni-Discs.” The Omni-Disc mechanism ensures that individual wheels of the Omni-Disc assembly are always aligned in the same direction, and can always roll freely. The Vuton-II was based on t...
