چکیده
Recent advancements in mechatronics has led to tremendous development of application of robots for industrial applications involving high health hazards, rough working conditions and difficult to reach locations. Robot assisted welding is one such high risk operation for human being. The industrial arc welding robots are either mounted on the floor, table or on overhead rails. In this scenario, the jobs to be welded are brought to shop floor. However, the on-sight joining of big pipes and structures with precision and speed, demands for mobility of welding robot. In this research work, a novel concept of mounting 5-dof welding robot on the omni-directional platform (Omni-WMR) is implemented to provides immense maneuvering mobility to the manipulator. This paper presents the combined dynamic model of omnidirectional mobile robot for welding operation to study the effect of dynamic interaction between manipulator and mobile platform. Dynamic interaction is carried out to find the variation in torque at manipulator link due to the motion of platform as well as its location on the platform. In addition, the variation in torque developed at platform wheels due to positioning the manipulator at two different locations on platform is accessed. For this, two case studies have been discussed to study the effect of dynamic interaction between manipulator and omni-directional platform.

Kinematically Redundant Octahedral Motion Platform for Virtual Reality Simulations
We propose a novel design of a parallel manipulator of Stewart Gough type for virtual reality application of single individuals; i.e. an omni-directional treadmill is mounted on the motion platform in order to improve VR immersion by giving feedback to the human body. For this purpose we modify the well-known octahedral manipulator in a way that it has one degree of kinematical redundancy; name...

In this paper, we study the scheduling architecture that enables an assembly of mobile modules to reconfigure into a humanoid formation with a manipulator arm. The investigated problem arises from the articulated nature of the formation which involves multiple degrees of freedom, thus requiring a control approach that synchronizes the actuators’ motion during shape metamorphosis. Using the prin...

متن کاملModeling and Compensation of the Dynamic Interaction of a Mobile Manipulator
A mobile manipulator composed of a manipulator and a mobile platform has a much larger workspace than a xed-base manipulator. While the on-board manipulator reaches out and performs manipulation tasks, the role of the mobile platform is to position the manipulator in a preferred connguration. In this paper, we study the eeect of the dynamic interaction between the manipulator and the mobile pla...
