چکیده

Despite many advantages, parallel manipulators are known to possess drive singularities where the control of one or more degrees of freedom is lost. Around these singular configurations, the required actuator forces grow unbounded. Previous efforts in the literature put forward singularity-consistent trajectory planning and singularityrobust modification of the dynamic equations as a solution to this problem. However, this previous method is applicable only for the open-loop operation of the manipulator, whereas initial configuration errors, external disturbances, and modeling errors should necessarily be taken into account in a closed-loop sense in real-life applications. With this aim, a switching inverse dynamics controller is proposed in this study for the trajectory tracking control of parallel manipulators as they pass through drive singular configurations. Simulations of the application of the developed controller result in good tracking performance, even in the presence of modeling errors, while the actuator efforts remain bounded and continuous in the neighborhood of the singularity.

Stability Analysis and Robust PID Control of Cable Driven Robots Considering Elasticity in Cables

In this paper robust PID control of fully-constrained cable driven parallel manipulators with elastic cables is studied in detail. In dynamic analysis, it is assumed that the dominant dynamics of cable can be approximated by linear axial spring. To develop the idea of control for cable robots with elastic cables, a robust PID control for cable driven robots with ideal rigid cables is firstly de...

On the Dynamic Properties of Flexible Parallel Manipulators in the Presence of Type 2 Singularities

In the present paper, we expand information about the conditions for passing through Type 2 singular configurations of a parallel manipulator. It is shown that any parallel manipulator can cross the singular configurations via an optimal control permitting the favorable force distribution, i.e., the wrench applied on the end-effector by the legs and external efforts must be reciprocal to the tw...

A Study of the Instantaneous Centers of Rotation in Singularities of 3-dof Fully Parallel Planar Manipulators

ABSTRACT Finding singular configurations (singularities) of manipulators is obviously important, because these configurations are the ones where the instantaneous kinematics becomes indeterminate. In this paper, singularities of a three degree-of-freedom (DOF) fully parallel planar manipulator are analyzed with the aid of two Jacobian matrices which are expressed through instantaneous centers o...

Dynamic singular configuration of flexible manipulators

In this paper, the new concept of the dynamic singular configuration of flexible manipulators is proposed. When we control flexible manipulators using the inverse dynamics method, we need to consider this dynamic singular configuration of flexible manipulators. Without considering it, the control around the dynamic singular configuration may become unstable. As an example, we derive the dynamic...

Tip Trajectory Tracking of Flexible-joint Manipulators

In this paper a new control strategy is introduced for tip trajectory tracking of flexible-joint manipulators driven by harmonic drives. The proposed controller incorporates friction compensating torque (FCT) and composite controller torque (CCT), which compensate for the friction in the harmonic drives and the flexibility of the joints, respectively. The FCT is a new controller which includes ...
