چکیده
This paper considers the design of mot ion control algorithms f o r robot fish. W e present modeling, control design, and experimental trajectory tracking results for an experimental planar robotic f ish system that is propelled using carangiform-like locomot ion. Our model for the fish’s propulsion is based o n quasi-steady fluid flow. Using this model, we propose gaits for forward and turning trajectories and analyze system response under such control strategies. Our models and predictions are verified by experiment.

متن کاملTrajectory Stabilization for a Planar Carangiform Robot Fish
This paper considers the task of trajectory stabilization for a fish-like robot by means of feedback. We use oscillatory control inputs and apply correction signals at the endpoints of each periodic input signal. Such a strategy can be proven to cause the system to converge to a desired trajectory. We present a specific model of a planar carangiform fish, and verify the stabilization results wi...

This paper presents a novel dynamic model of a bio-inspired robotic fish underwater vehicle by unifying conventional rigid body dynamics and bio-fluid-dynamics of a carangiform fish swimming given by Lighthill’s (LH) slender body theory. It proposes an inclusive mathematical design for better control and energy efficient path travel for the robotic fish. The system is modeled as an 2-link robot...
متن کاملModelling and Experimental Investigation of Carangiform Locomotion for Control
We propose a model for planar carangiform swimming based on conservative equations for the interaction of a rigid body and an incompressible fluid. We account for the generation of thrust due to vortex shedding through controlled coupling terms. We investigate the correct form of this coupling experimentally with a robotic propulsor, comparing its observed behavior to that predicted by unsteady...
