This paper presents dynamic analysis studies of planar parallel flexible 3-RRR manipulator with and without considering the flexibility of mobile platform. Initially, by treating all the members of the manipulator as flexible, the joint displacements, reaction forces and stresses are obtained during a specified trajectory tracking in Cartesian space. A comparative study is conducted with manipu...

In this paper an automatic bionic mechanical arm of jujube transplanter has been designed and simulated with Pro/E and ADAMS software. The device can achieve the work of clamping—sending—setting the sapling and support the sapling to guarantee it perpendicularity in setting process. Design the structure of manipulator utilizing the simulation of hand working. There is 5-DOF at the manipulator t...

In this paper, the general problem of impedance control for a robotic manipulator with a moving flexible base is addressed. Impedance control imposes a relation between force and displacement at the contact point with the environment. The concept of impedance control of flexible base mobile manipulator is rather new and is being considered for first time using singular perturbation and new slid...

In this study, we focus on the intelligent behavior of an octopus and describe the development of a flexible manipulator. By using the developed manipulator, we show that grasping behaviors similar to those of an octopus can be realized by the dynamics of the body without computation in its brain. Keywords-flexible manipulator; octopus; many degrees of freedom; grasping.

This paper focuses on the modeling, parameter estimation, and model validation in open and closed-loop of an experimental forestry machine manipulator. Symbolic Newton-Euler and linear graph methodologies are used in deriving mathematical models of the swing, boom and stick subsystems. Actuation dynamics are integrated with manipulator dynamics to result in a complete manipulator and actuation ...

A practical method is proposed for estimating the inertial parameters of robot manipulators with substantial unmodeled joint kiction and actuator dynamics. The manipulator is mounted on a six-axis forcehorque sensor. Sensor measurements and joint velocities recorded during manipulator motion are used to identify the inertial parameters. The unmodeled joint piction and actuator dynamics do not d...

in this paper, an optimal adaptive fuzzy integral sliding mode control is presented to control the robot manipulator position tracking in the presence of uncertainties and permanent magnet dc motor. in the proposed control, sliding surface of the sliding mode control is defined according to the information of position tracking error, derivatives, and error integral. in order to estimate bounds ...

For a mobile manipulator to be used in areas such as offices and houses, it is desirable that the mobile platform be small sized. In the case of a small-sized platform, the mobile manipulator may tip over when moving at high speed or executing tasks in the presence of disturbances. Therefore, it is necessary to simultaneously consider both stabilization and manipulation while coordinating vehic...

The freedom of choice in designating a base{body for free{ ying manipulators gives these manipulators a base{invariance symmetry that is not encountered in terrestrial manipulators. This paper analyzes the relationship between this natural symmetry and the dynamical equations for freeying manipulators. The base-invariance symmetry is used to develop a new formulation of the manipulator dynamics...

This paper presents a novel robust fractional PIλ controller design for flexible joint electrically driven robots. Because of using voltage control strategy, the proposed approach is free of problems arising from torque control strategy in the design and implementation. In fact, the motor's current includes the effects of nonlinearities and coupling in the robot manipulator. Therefore, cancella...
