Modeling and Control of a 4-wheel Skid-steering Mobile Robot†
نویسندگان
چکیده
A mathematical model of a 4-wheel skid-steering mobile robot is presented in a systematic way. The robot is considered as a subsystem consisting of kinematic, dynamic and drive levels. Next, a designing process of a kinematic controller based on the algorithm introduced by (Dixon et al., 2001) is shown. An extension of the kinematic control law at the dynamic and motor levels using the Lyapunov analysis and the backstepping technique is developed. To validate the designed algorithm, extensive simulation results for trajectory tracking and set-point cases are discussed. Some deliberations concerning the tuning of the controller are presented, too.

Modeling, experimenting, and improving skid steering on a 6 × 6 all-terrain mobile platform
Multiple-wheel all-terrain vehicles without a steering system must use great amounts of power when skid steering. Skid steering is modeled with emphasis put on the ground contact forces of the wheels according to the mass distribution of the vehicle. To increase steering efficiency, it is possible to modify the distribution of the normal contact forces on the wheels. This paper focuses on two a...

A robust dynamic feedback controller is designed and implemented, based on the dynamic model of the six-wheel skid-steering RobuROC6 robot, performing high speed turns. The control inputs are respectively the linear velocity and the yaw angle. The main object of this paper is to elaborate a sliding mode controller, proved to be robust enough to ignore the knowledge of the forces within the whee...
متن کاملModel-based Control of a fast Rover over natural Terrain
A model-based control for fast autonomous four-wheel mobile robots on soft soils is developed. This control strategy takes into account slip and skid effects to extend the mobility over planar granular soils. Each wheel is independently actuated by an electric motor. The overall objective is to follow a path roughly at relatively high speed. Some results obtained in dynamic simulation are prese...

متن کاملFault Tolerant Control for a 4-Wheel Skid Steering Mobile Robot
This paper studies a fault tolerant control strategy for a four wheel skid steering mobile robot (SSMR). Through this work the fault diagnosis procedure is accomplished using structural analysis technique while fault accommodation is based on a Recursive Least Squares (RLS) approximation. The goal is to detect faults as early as possible and recalculate command inputs in order to achieve fault ...
