in this research optimal reconfiguration strategy of the improved srr reconfigurable mobile robot based on force-angle stability measure has been designed using genetic algorithm. path tracking nonlinear controller which keeps robot’s maximum stability has been designed and simulated in matlab. motion equations of the robot have been derived in parametric form by means of newton- euler, lagrang...

Mobile mechanical manipulators are one of the automation aspects which were revealed in last years of twentieth century. These machines assume the responsibility of human and gradually expand the domain of their activities in industry. This paper is a presentation of the Sweeper Robot designed in the Robotic Laboratory of Iran University of Science and Technology. The original design of this ro...

Quadruped robots have unique capabilities for motion over uneven natural environments. This article presents a stable gait for a quadruped robot in such motions and discusses the inverse-dynamics control scheme to follow the planned gait. First, an explicit dynamics model will be developed using a novel constraint elimination method for an 18-DOF quadruped robot. Thereafter, an inverse-dynamics...

in this paper, the important formation control problem of nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots is investigated via a leader-follower strategy. to this end, the dynamics model of the considered wheeled mobile robot is derived using lagrange equations of motion. then, using adams multi-body simulation software, the obtained dynamics of the wheeled system in matlab software is verified. after that, ...

planning robot trajectory is a complex task that plays a significant role in design and application of robots in task space. the problem is formulated as a trajectory optimization problem which is fundamentally a constrained nonlinear optimization problem. open-loop optimal control method is proposed as an approach for trajectory optimization of cable parallel manipulator for a given two-end-po...

this paper aims to discuss the requirements of safe and smooth trajectory planning of transporter mobile robots to perform non-prehensile object manipulation task. in non-prehensile approach, the robot and the object must keep their grasp-less contact during manipulation task. to this end, dynamic grasp concept is employed for a box manipulation task and corresponding conditions are obtained an...

Gait rehabilitation using body weight support on a treadmill is a recommended rehabilitation technique for neurological injuries, such as spinal cord injury. In this paper, a new robotic orthosis is presented for treadmill training. In the presented design the criteria such as low inertia of robot components, backdrivability, high safety and degrees of freedom based on human walking are conside...

This paper presents simplified hydrodynamics model for a biomimetic robot fish based on quantitative morphological and kinematic parameters of crangiform fish. The motion of four Pangasius sanitwongsei with different length and swimming speed were recorded by the digital particle image velocimetry (DPIV) and image processing methods and optimal coefficients of the motion equations and appropria...
