Cutting and Impedance Model of Soil- Excavator Interaction
نویسنده
چکیده
The present work considers a double wedge soil cutting model, suitable to describe the soil-tool interaction in automated digging processes. This one or a similar model will be the base to reach a set of equations by which to fit online typical soil and tool parameters, instead to fit these parameters by time consuming autoregressive methods. The final aim is to reach a predictor of soil-tool interaction to use in the trajectory control of automated digging machine..

A Virtual Excavator for Controller Development and Evaluation
In order to facilitate the testing and evaluation of control strategies and operator environments designed for heavy duty hydraulic machines, an excavator simulator has been developed and is described in this paper. The simulator comprises an impedance model of the excavator arm, a model for the bucket-ground interaction forces, a graphical environment and a haptic interface. This paper describ...
متن کاملExcavator Dynamics and Effect of Soil on Digging
Automation of excavation work calls for a robotic system able to perform the planned digging work, and responsive to interaction forces experienced during excavation. The development of automated excavation control method requires a dynamic model to describe the evolution of the excavator motion with time. The joint torques of the boom mechanism are generated by hydraulic rams which also affect...
متن کاملModeling and identification of soil-tool interaction in automated excavation
In the process of automating an earthmoving machine, we have developed a model of soil-tool interaction that predicts resistive forces experienced at the tool during digging. The predicted forces can be used to model the closed loop behavior of a controller that servoes the joints of the excavator so as to fill the bucket. In this paper, we extend the state of the art in two ways. First, we pre...
