Force Control in One Legged Hopping Robot while Landing
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the issue of control of impact forces generated during the interaction between the hopping robot toe and the ground during landing has been considered. The force thus generated can damage the robot altogether. With the objective to control these impact forces impedance control strategy has been applied to the hopping robot system. The dynamics pertaining to the impact between robot toe and ground has been modeled as in case of a ball bouncing on the ground. Bond Graph theory has been used for the modeling of the hopping robot system. Simulation results show that impact forces generated during the landing has been controlled to a specified limiting value. This model and the corresponding analysis can be further extended for understanding the dynamics involved in continuous hopping of robot with constant height and velocity control.

متن کاملDynamics-based control of a one-legged hopping robot
This paper proposes a new model of a one-legged hopping robot. The one-legged hopping robot is useful in realizing rapid movement such as that of a running animal. Although it has a simple leg mechanism, the dynamics are not simple and require non-linear complex analysis. This means that it is not easy to derive a controller for stable hopping in a systematic way. Therefore, a dynamics-based ap...
متن کاملFast and Adaptive Hopping Height Control of Single-legged Robot
Research on running robots has generally focussed on the steady-state. When the ground has limited foot placement surfaces or there are sudden changes in height then steady-state running is not possible. It becomes necessary to make step-bystep adjustments to place the foot. In this paper a mass-spring-damper model of a robot’s leg is used to develop a hopping controller capable of meeting rapi...
متن کاملHeight Control for a One-Legged Hopping Robot using a Two-Dimensional Model
This paper describes a model-based height controller for a one-legged hopping robot. Equations of motion in two dimensions (i.e. the sagittal plane) are developed. These equations are solved and numerically integrated to produce an actuator command that will allow the robot to regulate its apex height.
