Modeling of Wheeled Mobile Robots using Dextrous Manipulation Kinematics

چکیده
This document introduces a new kinematic simulation of a wheeled mobile robot operating on uneven terrain. Our modeling method borrows concepts from dextrous manipulation. This allows for an accurate simulation of the way 3-dimensional wheels roll over a smooth ground surface. The purpose of the simulation is to validate a new concept for design of off-road wheel suspensions, called Passive Variable Camber (PVC). We show that PVC eliminates kinematic slip for an outdoor robot. Both forward and inverse kinematics are discussed and simulation results are presented.

Control of Wheeled Mobile Manipulators with Flexible Suspension Considering Wheels Slip Effects
Wheeled mobile manipulators utilize both the locomotion capabilities of the wheeled platform and manipulation capacity of the arm. While the modelling and control of such systems have previously been studied, most of them have considered robots with rigid suspension and their wheels are subject to pure rolling conditions. To relax the aforementioned limiting assumptions, this research addresses...

متن کاملVelocity Kinematic Modeling for Wheeled Mobile Robots
This paper presents the velocity kinematic modeling of wheeled mobile robots (WMRs) by applying the matrix coordinate transformation to every pairs of WMRs including wheeled pairs which were dealt with ad-hoc manners in the previous methodologies. A wheeled pair is not replaced with a planar pair and its kinematics is formulated together with those of lower pairs, even though there exists 2 DOF...
