Dynamics of Flexible Manipulators
Authors
Abstract:
This paper presents an application of Continuum (i.e. Lagrangian) and Finite Element Techniques to flexible manipulator arms for derivation of the corresponding Dynamic Equations of Motion. Specifically a one-link flexible arm is considered for detailed analysis, and the results are extended for the case of a two - link flexible manipulator. Numerical examples are given for the case of both one and two link flexible arms, and the resulting dynamic equations are solved and thoroughly discussed. In addition, both methods are compared in the sense of modeling and the required time and accuracy for computation.

Inverse Dynamics of Flexible Manipulators
High performance robot manipulators, in terms of cycle time and accuracy, require well designed control methods, based on accurate dynamic models. Robot manipulators are traditionally described by the flexible joint model or the flexible link model. These models only consider elasticity in the rotational direction. When these models are used for control or simulation, the accuracy can be limite...

full textOn the dynamics and control of flexible joint space manipulators
Space manipulator systems are designed to have lightweight structure and long arms in order to achieve reduction of fuel consumption and large reachable workspaces, respectively. Such systems are subject to link flexibilities. Moreover, space manipulator actuators are usually driven by harmonic gear mechanisms which lead to joint flexibility. These types of flexibility may cause vibrations both...
full textImpact dynamics of space manipulators mounted on a flexible structure
The problem of impact dynamics of space robotic systems that consist of a rigid manipulator supported by a flexible deployable structure is addressed. Due to joint back-drivability and the dynamic coupling between the manipulator and its supporting structure, unknown motion of the system occurs after it makes impulsive contact with the environment. A method that uses the system's dynamic model ...

In this paper, we describe a parallel solution scheme of inverse dynamics, and its application to flexible manipulators where elastic deformation and vibration normally occur in constituting link members. The scheme is developed by using the Finite Element Method (FEM), which evaluates the analyzed model in absolute Cartesian coordinates, with the equation of motion expressed in dimension of fo...
full textCONTROL OF FLEXIBLE JOINT ROBOT MANIPULATORS BY COMPENSATING FLEXIBILITY
A flexible-joint robot manipulator is a complex system because it is nonlinear, multivariable, highly coupled along with joint flexibility and uncertainty. To overcome flexibility, several methods have been proposed based on flexible model. This paper presents a novel method for controlling flexible-joint robot manipulators. A novel control law is presented by compensating flexibility to form a...
