Hexapod leg control algorithm in fault conditions

چکیده
When viewed as a subset of R, the shape or geometry of the work envelope varies from robot to robot. However, the work envelope can also be viewed within the framework of joint space R. In joint space, the work envelope is typically characterised by bounds on linear combinations of joint variables. The constraints of this nature generate a convex polyhedron in R named the joint-space work envelope.

Fault-Tolerant Locomotion of the Hexapod Robot - Systems, Man and Cybernetics, Part B, IEEE Transactions on
In this paper, we propose a scheme for fault detection and tolerance of the hexapod robot locomotion on even terrain. The fault stability margin is defined to represent potential stability which a gait can have in case a sudden fault event occurs to one leg. Based on this, the fault-tolerant quadruped periodic gaits of the hexapod walking over perfectly even terrain are derived. It is demonstra...
متن کاملA fault tolerant gait for a hexapod robot over uneven terrain
The fault tolerant gait of legged robots in static walking is a gait which maintains its stability against a fault event preventing a leg from having the support state. In this paper, a fault tolerant quadruped gait is proposed for a hexapod traversing uneven terrain with forbidden regions, which do not offer viable footholds but can be stepped over. By comparing performance of straight-line mo...
متن کاملFault-Tolerant Gait Planning of Multi-Legged Robots
A fault-tolerant gait of multi-legged systems is defined as a gait which can maintain the gait stability and continue its walking against the occurrence of a leg failure (Yang & Kim, 1998). The notion of the fault-tolerant gait comes from the fact that legged robots with static walking have inherent fault tolerance capability against a failure in a leg, since a failed leg for itself does not ca...
متن کاملOptimal Fault Tolerant Gait Sequence Of The Hexapod Robot With Overlapping Reachable Areas And Crab - Systems, Man and Cybernetics, Part A, IEEE Transactions on
This paper extends the authors’ previous results on fault tolerant locomotion of the hexapod robot on even terrain by relaxing nonoverlap of redefined reachable cells of legs and considering crab walking. It is shown that in fault tolerant locomotion two adjacent legs of the hexapod robot can have overlapping redefined reachable cells with each other and consequently the stride length of the ga...
متن کاملEvolving neural networks for hexapod leg controllers
The incremental evolution of neural networks to control hexapod robot locomotion can be separated into two main parts: the evolution of leg controllers that produce the cyclic action of single legs (leg cycles) and the evolution of the coordination of these individual leg controllers to produce a gait. In this paper, we use a genetic algorithm to do the first of these steps, to evolve the struc...
