Rigid Body Analysis of Power Grasps: Bounds of the Indeterminate Grasp Force
نویسنده
چکیده
The equilibrium equation of a power grasp cannot determine the grasp force uniquely in general. This paper proves that the indeterminate grasp force is within a bounded hyper-polyhedron not necessarily convex by considering the compatibility with rigid body motion. The maximum friction angle is found at its vertex. Thus, if all forces at the vertices are within the friction cone, then all forces in the hyper-polyhedron are within the friction cone. Based on this analysis, we present an algorithm for computing joint torques that can balance a given set of external disturbances.

Analysis of frictional forces in indeterminate enveloping grasps
The problem due to the statically indeterminate contact forces arising in indeterminate frictional enveloping grasps is addressed in the paper. First of all, we show that the statical model for the contact forces is incomplete in the sense that the mathematical frictional forces may have an infeasible component. To resolve this infeasibility, we directly derive the enveloping grasp infeasibilit...
متن کاملGeneralized Stability of Compliant Grasps
We develop a geometric framework for the stability analysis of multifingered grasps and propose a measure of grasp stability for arbitrary perturbations and loading conditions. The measure requires a choice of metric on the group of rigid body displacements. We show that although the stability of a grasp itself does not depend on the choice of metric, comparison of the stability of different gr...
متن کاملForce-Closure Grasps With Two Palms
This paper studies force-closure grasps of rigid objects by using two palms. The two palms are instrumented with tactile sensors capable of detecting the presence of contacts, and are assumed to be respectively installed on two robotic manipulators capable of motion and force control. Established in this paper is an existence condition under which the two palms form a force-closure grasp. The s...
متن کاملSecond-Order Stability Cells of a Frictionless Rigid Body Grasped by Rigid Fingers
The most secure type of grasp of a frictionless woorkpiece is the form-closure grasp. However, task constraints may make achieving form-closure impossible or undesirable. In this case, one needs to employ a force-closure 1 grasp. In this paper, we study the subclass of force-closure grasps known as second-order stable grasps, which typically have a small number of contacts. We derive conditions...
متن کاملMotion-decoupled internal force control in grasping with visco-elastic contacts - Robotics and Automation, 2000. Proceedings. ICRA '00. IEEE International Conference on
Robotic grasps exhibiting visco-elastic contact interactions with the manipulated object are considered. Control of internal forces is investigated. The presence of nonnegligible compliance at contacts, implies that the object dynamics cannot be neglected when attempting to control internal forces without affecting the object position. A dynamic internal force control is proposed. It is decoupl...
