No. of bitstreams: 1 arquivototal.pdf: 1771439 bytes, checksum: 5a0ce436783e1a04419dc8a73bf4c204 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-03-31 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / This work presents the designs and results obtained through simulation and experimental testing of conventional controllers P, PI and PID implemented by personal computers applied to an electropneumatic servomechanism for control of force. The system consists of a double acting pneumatic cylinder, which is responsible for applying the force on a mechanical subsystem consisting of a spiral spring, representing the means of working. The proportional electropneumatic flow valve, being the element controlling the flow of compressed air to be released into the pneumatic air cylinder which results in controlled force application; a load cell converts the force applied by the cylinder onto the medium into an electrical signal. The control signal to be applied on the electropneumatic proportional flow valve comes from a signal input and output plate installed on the computer, which is controlled by an algorithm implemented in the computing environment LabVIEW®, wherein the mentioned controllers are inserted, the mathematical representative model of the servomechanism was obtained by applying the parametric identification technique Box-Jenkins (BJ) which results in a family of four models, one of which is chosen to represent the system. The adjustment of the controllers is done by using the critical gain method of Ziegler and Nichols so that the response from the system meets the performance specifications imposed on it. Simulated and experimental results of the system are presented under the inserted controllers, which are analyzed according to relevant theory to the study of conventional controllers; it appears then that the PID controller is best suited for use in its electropneumatic servomechanism. / Neste trabalho apresenta-se os projetos e resultados obtidos através de simulações e ensaios experimentais de controladores convencionais P, PI e PID implementado por computador pessoal aplicado em um servomecanismo eletropneumático para controle de força. O sistema é constituído por um cilindro pneumático de dupla ação, sendo este responsável pela aplicação da força sobre um subsistema mecânico constituído por uma mola helicoidal, representando o meio de trabalho. A válvula eletropneumática proporcional de vazão, sendo o elemento de controle da vazão de ar comprimido a ser liberada para o cilindro pneumático que resulta na aplicação da força controlada; uma célula de carga converte a força aplicada pelo cilindro sobre o meio em sinal elétrico. O sinal de controle a ser aplicado na válvula eletropneumática proporcional de vazão é proveniente de uma placa de entrada e saída de sinais instalada no computador, sendo esta comandada por um algoritmo implementado no ambiente computacional LabVIEW®, no qual os referidos controladores estão inseridos.

Development of Integration Algorithms for Vision/Force Robot Control with Automatic Decision System

Bdiwi, Mohamad 10 June 2014 (has links)
In advanced robot applications, the challenge today is that the robot should perform different successive subtasks to achieve one or more complicated tasks similar to human. Hence, this kind of tasks required to combine different kind of sensors in order to get full information about the work environment. However, from the point of view of control, more sensors mean more possibilities for the structure of the control system. As shown previously, vision and force sensors are the most common external sensors in robot system. As a result, in scientific papers it can be found numerous control algorithms and different structures for vision/force robot control, e.g. shared, traded control etc. The lacks in integration of vision/force robot control could be summarized as follows: • How to define which subspaces should be vision, position or force controlled? • When the controller should switch from one control mode to another one? • How to insure that the visual information could be reliably used? • How to define the most appropriated vision/force control structure? In many previous works, during performing a specified task one kind of vision/force control structure has been used which is pre-defined by the programmer. In addition to that, if the task is modified or changed, it would be much complicated for the user to describe the task and to define the most appropriated vision/force robot control especially if the user is inexperienced. Furthermore, vision and force sensors are used only as simple feedback (e.g. vision sensor is used usually as position estimator) or they are intended to avoid the obstacles. Accordingly, much useful information provided by the sensors which help the robot to perform the task autonomously is missed. In our opinion, these lacks of defining the most appropriate vision/force robot control and the weakness in the utilization from all the information which could be provided by the sensors introduce important limits which prevent the robot to be versatile, autonomous, dependable and user-friendly. For this purpose, helping to increase autonomy, versatility, dependability and user-friendly in certain area of robotics which requires vision/force integration is the scope of this thesis. More concretely: 1. Autonomy: In the term of an automatic decision system which defines the most appropriated vision/force control modes for different kinds of tasks and chooses the best structure of vision/force control depending on the surrounding environments and a priori knowledge. 2. Versatility: By preparing some relevant scenarios for different situations, where both the visual servoing and force control are necessary and indispensable. 3. Dependability: In the term of the robot should depend on its own sensors more than on reprogramming and human intervention. In other words, how the robot system can use all the available information which could be provided by the vision and force sensors, not only for the target object but also for the features extraction of the whole scene. 4. User-friendly: By designing a high level description of the task, the object and the sensor configuration which is suitable also for inexperienced user. If the previous properties are relatively achieved, the proposed robot system can: • Perform different successive and complex tasks. • Grasp/contact and track imprecisely placed objects with different poses. • Decide automatically the most appropriate combination of vision/force feedback for every task and react immediately to the changes from one control cycle to another because of occurrence of some unforeseen events. • Benefit from all the advantages of different vision/force control structures. • Benefit from all the information provided by the sensors. • Reduce the human intervention or reprogramming during the execution of the task. • Facilitate the task description and entering of a priori-knowledge for the user, even if he/she is inexperienced.

A New Index for Detecting and Avoiding Type II Singularities for the Control of Non-Redundant Parallel Robots

Pulloquinga Zapata, José Luis 16 June 2023 (has links)
[ES] Los robots paralelos (PR por sus siglas en inglés) son mecanismos donde el efector final está unido a la base, mediante al menos dos cadenas cinemáticas abiertas. Los PRs ofrecen una gran capacidad de carga y alta precisión, lo que los hace adecuados para diversas aplicaciones, entre ellas la interacción persona-robot. Sin embargo, en las proximidades de una singularidad Tipo II (singularidad dentro del espacio de trabajo), un PR pierde el control sobre los movimientos del efector final. La pérdida de control representa un riesgo importante para los usuarios, especialmente en rehabilitación robótica. En las últimas décadas, los PR se han popularizado en la rehabilitación de miembros inferiores debido al aumento del número de personas que viven con limitaciones físicas. Así, esta tesis trata sobre la detección y evitación de singularidades de Tipo II para asegurar total control de un PR no redundante para la rehabilitación y diagnóstico de rodilla, denominado 3UPS+RPU. En la literatura, existen varios índices para detectar y medir la cercanía a una singularidad basados en métodos analíticos y geométricos. Sin embargo, algunos de estos índices carecen de significado físico y son incapaces de identificar los actuadores responsables de la pérdida de control. Esta tesis aporta dos novedosos índices para detectar y medir la proximidad a una singularidad de Tipo II, capaces de identificar el par de actuadores responsables de la singularidad. Los dos índices son los ángulos entre los componentes lineal (T_i,j) y angular (O_i,j) de dos Twist Screw de Salida (OTS por sus siglas en inglés) normalizados i,j. Una singularidad Tipo II es detectada cuando T_i,j = O_i,j = 0 y su proximidad se mide mediante los mínimos ángulos T_i,j (minT) y O_i,j (minO) para los casos plano y espacial, respectivamente. La eficacia de los índices T_i,j y O_i,j se evalúa de forma teórica y experimental en un robot 3UPS+RPU y un mecanismo de cinco barras. Además, se propone un procedimiento experimental para el adecuado establecimiento del límite de cercanía a una singularidad de Tipo II mediante la aproximación progresiva del PR a una singularidad y la medición de la última posición controlable. Posteriormente, se desarrollan dos nuevos algoritmos deterministas para liberar y evitar una singularidad de Tipo II basados en minT y minO para PR no redundantes. minT y minO se utilizan para identificar los dos actuadores a mover para liberar o evitar el PR de una singularidad. Ambos algoritmos requieren una medición precisa de la pose alcanzada por el efector final. El algoritmo para liberar un PR de una configuración singular se aplica con éxito en un controlador híbrido basado en visión artificial para el PR 3UPS+RPU. El controlador utiliza un sistema de fotogrametría para medir la pose del robot debido a la degeneración del modelo cinemático en las proximidades de una singularidad. El algoritmo de evasión de singularidades Tipo II se aplica a la planificación offline y online de trayectorias no singulares para un mecanismo de cinco barras y el PR 3UPS+RPU. Estas aplicaciones verifican el bajo coste computacional y la mínima desviación introducida en la trayectoria original por los nuevos algoritmos. La implementación directa de un controlador de fuerza/posición en el PR 3UPS+RPU es insegura porque el paciente podría llevar involuntariamente al PR a una singularidad. Por lo tanto, esta tesis concluye presentando un novedoso controlador de fuerza/posición complementado con el algoritmo de evasión de singularidades de Tipo II. El nuevo controlador se evalúa durante rehabilitación activa de una pierna de maniquí y una pierna humana no lesionada. Los resultados muestran que el nuevo controlador combinado mantiene el PR 3UPS+RPU lejos de configuraciones singulares con una desviación mínima de la trayectoria original. Por lo tanto, esta tesis habilita el 3UPS+RPU PR para la rehabilitación segura de miembros inferiores lesionados. / [CAT] Els robots paral·lels (PR per les seues sigles en anglés) són mecanismes on l'efector final està unit a la base, mitjançant almenys dues cadenes cinemàtiques obertes. Els PRs ofereixen una gran capacitat de càrrega i alta precisió, la qual cosa els fa adequats per a diverses aplicacions, entre elles la interacció persona-robot. No obstant això, en les proximitats d'una singularitat Tipus II (singularitat dins de l'espai de treball), un PR perd el control sobre els moviments de l'efector final. La pèrdua de control representa un risc important per als usuaris, especialment en rehabilitació robòtica. En les últimes dècades, els PR s'han popularitzat en la rehabilitació de membres inferiors a causa de l'augment del nombre de persones que viuen amb limitacions físiques. Així, aquesta tesi tracta sobre la detecció i evació de singularitats de Tipus II per a assegurar total control d'un PR no redundant per a la rehabilitació i diagnòstic de genoll, denominat 3UPS+RPU. En la literatura, existeixen diversos índexs per a detectar i mesurar la proximitat a una singularitat basats en mètodes analítics i geomètrics. No obstant això, alguns d'aquests índexs manquen de significat físic i són incapaços d'identificar els actuadors responsables de la pèrdua de control. Aquesta tesi aporta dos nous índexs per a detectar i mesurar la proximitat a una singularitat de Tipus II, capaços d'identificar el parell d'actuadors responsables de la singularitat. Els dos índexs són els angles entre els components lineal (T_i,j) i angular (O_i,j) de dues Twist Screw d'Eixida (OTS per les seues sigles en engonals) normalitzats i,j. Una singularitat Tipus II és detectada quan T_i,j = O_i,j = 0 i la seua proximitat es mesura mitjançant els minimos angles T_i,j (minT) i O_i,j (minO) per als casos pla i espacial, respectivament. L'eficàcia dels índexs T_i,j i O_i,j es evalua de manera teòrica i experimental en un robot 3UPS+RPU i un mecanisme de cinc barres. A més, es proposa un procediment experimental per a l'adequat establiment del límit de proximitat a una singularitat de Tipus II mitjançant l'aproximació progressiva del PR a una singularitat i el mesurament de l'última posició controlable. Posteriorment, es desenvolupen dos nous algorismes deterministes per a alliberar i evadir una singularitat de Tipus II basats en minT i minO per a PR no redundants. minT i minO s'utilitzen per a identificar els dos actuadors a moure per a alliberar o evadir el PR d'una singularitat. Aquests algorismes requereixen un mesurament precís de la posa aconseguida per l'efector final. L'algorisme per a alliberar un PR d'una configuració singular s'aplica amb èxit en un controlador híbrid basat en visió artificial per al PR 3UPS+RPU. El controlador utilitza un sistema de fotogrametria per a mesurar la posa del robot a causa de la degeneració del model cinemàtic en les proximitats d'una singularitat. L'algorisme d'evació de singularitats Tipus II s'aplica a la planificació offline i en línia de trajectòries no singulars per a un mecanisme de cinc barres i el PR 3UPS+RPU. Aquestes aplicacions verifiquen el baix cost computacional i la mínima desviació introduïda en la trajectòria original pels nous algorismes. La implementació directa d'un controlador de força/posició en el PR 3UPS+RPU és insegura perquè el pacient podria portar involuntàriament al PR a una singularitat. Per tant, aquesta tesi conclou presentant un nou controlador de força/posició complementat amb l'algorisme d'evació de singularitats de Tipus II. El nou controlador s'avalua durant la rehabilitació activa d'una cama de maniquí i una cama humana no lesionada. Els resultats mostren que el nou controlador combinat manté el PR 3UPS+RPU lluny de configuracions singulars amb una desviació mínima de la trajectòria original. Per tant, aquesta tesi habilita el 3UPS+RPU PR per a la rehabilitació segura dels membres inferiors lesionats. / [EN] Parallel Robots (PR)s are mechanisms where the end-effector is linked to the base by at least two open kinematics chains. The PRs offer a high payload and high accuracy, making them suitable for various applications, including human robot interaction. However, in proximity to a Type II singularity (singularity within the workspace), a PR loses control over the movements of the end-effector. The loss of control represents a major risk for users, especially in robotic rehabilitation. In the last decades, PRs have become popular in lower limb rehabilitation because of the increment in the number of people living with physical limitations. Thus, this thesis is about the detection and avoidance of Type II singularities to ensure complete control of a non-redundant PR for knee rehabilitation and diagnosis named 3UPS+RPU. In the literature, several indices exist to detect and measure the closeness to a singular configuration based on analytical and geometrical methods. However, some of these indices have no physical meaning, and they are unable to identify the actuators responsible for the loss of control. This thesis contributes two novel indices to detect and measure the proximity to a Type II singularity capable of identifying the pair of actuators responsible for the singularity. The two indices are the angles between the linear (T_i,j) and the angular (O_i,j) components of two i,j normalised Output Twist Screws (OTSs). A Type II singularity is detected when the angles T_i,j = O_i,j = 0 and its closeness is measured by the minimum T_i,j (minT) and minimum O_i,j (minO) for planar and spatial cases, respectively. The effectiveness of the indices T_i,j and O_i,j is evaluated from a theoretical and experimental perspective in a 3UPS+RPU and a five bars mechanism. Moreover, an experimental procedure is proposed for setting a proper limit of closeness to a Type II singularity by the progressive approach of the PR to singular configuration and measuring the last controllable pose. Subsequently, two novel deterministic algorithms for releasing and avoiding Type II singularities based on minT and minO are developed for non-redundant PRs. The minT and minO are used to identify the two actuators to move for release or prevent the PR from the singularity. Both algorithms require an accurate measuring of the pose reached by the end-effector. The algorithm to release a PR from a singular configuration is successfully applied in a vision-based hybrid controller for the 3UPS+RPU PR. The controller uses a photogrammetry system to measure the pose of the robot due to the degeneration of the kinematic model in the vicinity of a singularity. The Type II singularity avoidance algorithm is applied to offline and online free-singularity trajectory planning for a five-bar mechanism and the 3UPS+RPU PR. These applications verify the low computation cost and the minimum deviation introduced in the original trajectory for both novel algorithms. The direct implementation of a force/position controller in the 3UPS+RPU PR is unsafe because the patient could unintentionally drive the PR to a Type II singularity. Therefore, this thesis concludes by presenting a novel force/position controller complemented with the Type II singularity avoidance algorithm. The complemented controller is evaluated during patient-active exercises in a mannequin leg and an uninjured human limb. The results show that the novel combined controller keeps the 3UPS+RPU PR far from singular configurations with a minimum deviation on the original trajectory. Hence, this thesis enables the 3UPS+RPU PR for the safe rehabilitation of injured lower limbs. / Pulloquinga Zapata, JL. (2023).

Automated microassembly using an active microgripper with sensorized end-effectors and hybrid force / position control / Micro-assemblage à l'aide d'une pince instrumentée en force et d'une commande hybride force / position.

Komati, Bilal 12 December 2014 (has links)
La thèse propose l’utilisation d’une pince active instrumentée en force pour automatiser l’assemblage des MOEMS 3D hybrides. Chacun des doigts de la pince instrumentée est composé d’un actionneur piézo-électrique et d’un capteur de force piézorésistif intégré. Le capteur de force intégré présente des performances innovantes par rapport aux capteurs existants dans l’ état de l’art. Cette pince offre la possibilité de mesurer les forces de serrage appliquées par la pince pour saisir un micro composant et d’estimer les forces de contact entre le micro composant et le substrat de micro-assemblage.Un modèle dynamique et non linéaire est développé pour la pince instrumentée. Une commande hybride force/position est utilisée pour automatiser le micro-assemblage. Dans cette commande, certains axes sont commandés en position et les autres sont commandés en force. Pour les axes commandés en force, une nouvelle commande fondée sur une commande en impédance avec suivi de référence est proposée selon un principe de commande non linéaire par mode glissant avec estimation des paramétres en lignes. En utilisant le schéma de commande hybride force/position proposé, une automatisation de toutes les tâches de micro-assemblage est réalisée avec succès, notamment sur un composant flexible à guider dans un rail. / This work proposes the use of an active microgripper with sensorized end-effectors for the automationof the microassembly of 3D hybrid MOEMS. Each of the two fingers of the microgripper is composedof a piezoelectric actuator with an integrated piezoresistive force sensor. The integrated force sensorpresents innovative performances compared to the existing force sensors in literature. The forcesensors provide the ability to measure the gripping forces applied by the microgripper to grasp a microcomponentand estimated the contact forces between the microcomponent and the substrate ofmicroassembly. A dynamic nonlinear model of the microgripper is developed. A hybrid force/positioncontrol is used for the automation of the microassembly. In the hybrid force/position control formulation,some axes are controlled in position and others are controlled in force. For the force controlledaxes, a new nonlinear force control scheme based on force tracking sliding mode impedance controlis proposed with parameter estimation. Using the proposed hybrid force/position control scheme, fullautomation of the microassembly is performed, notably for the guiding of a flexible component in arail.

Modélisation d'un robot manipulateur en vue de la commande robuste en force utilisé en soudage FSW / Robot manipulator modeling for robust force control used in Friction Stir Welding (FSW)

Wang, Ke 28 January 2016 (has links)
Le travail présenté dans cette thèse concerne la modélisation et la commande robuste en force de robots manipulateurs industriels à articulations flexibles utilisés pour le procédé FSW. Afin de réduire les temps de calcul et l'occupation de la mémoire, une approche basée sur la méthode par intervalle est proposée en vue de la simplification des modèles dynamiques des robots industriels, et contribue à identifier les paramètres d'inertie qui sont négligeables. Des études de cas sur trois types de trajectoires de test et l’analyse des couples moteurs ont démontré l'efficacité et les bonnes performances de la méthode de simplification. Ensuite, la modélisation dynamique et l'identification des paramètres du procédé FSW ont été effectuées. Les paramètres des modèles linéaires et non-linéaires de forces axiales sont identifiés. Sur la base de la modélisation du procédé FSW qui considère simultanément la cinématique du système complet, le modèle de déplacement du robot rigide, les flexibilités des articulations et le modèle dynamique de la force axiale, un contrôleur robuste en force est obtenu par la méthode de réglage fréquentielle. En outre, un simulateur du procédé FSW robotique est développé et les résultats de simulation montrent les bonnes performances du contrôleur en force. L'oscillation de la force axiale dans le procédé FSW peut être simulée en utilisant un modèle de perturbation de la position verticale de référence. / The work presented in this thesis focuses on the modeling and robust force control of flexible joints industrial robot manipulators used for FSW process. In order to reduce computation time and memory occupation, a novel interval-based approach for dynamic model simplification of industrial robots is proposed, which applies to arbitrary trajectories of whole robot workspace and contributes to obtaining negligible inertia parameters. Cases studies have been carried out on three kinds of test trajectories and torques analysis of robot dynamic equation, demonstrating the effectiveness and good performance of the simplification method. Then, the dynamic modeling and identification of robotic FSW process is performed, and the parameters of linear and nonlinear dynamic axial force process models are identified by using the plunge depth and its derivative. On the basis of the modeling of robotic FSW process which simultaneously considers the complete kinematics, the rigid robot displacement model, the joint flexibility and the dynamic axial force process model, a robust force controller can be obtained by using the frequency response approach. Besides, a simulator of robotic FSW process is developed and simulation results show good performance of the force controller. The oscillation of axial force in FSW process can be simulated when a disturbance model of initial vertical reference position is proposed and used in the simulation.

Propuesta de inclusión de esfuerzos en el control de un brazo robot para asegurar el cumplimiento de la rugosidad superficial durante operaciones de lijado en diferentes materiales

Pérez Ubeda, Rodrigo Alonso 07 April 2022 (has links)
Tesis por compendio / [ES] El mecanizado con brazos robots ha sido estudiado aproximadamente desde los años 90, durante este tiempo se han llevado a cabo importantes avances y descubrimientos en cuanto a su campo de aplicación. En general, los robots manipuladores tienen muchos beneficios y ventajas al ser usados en operaciones de mecanizado, tales como, flexibilidad, gran área de trabajo y facilidad de programación, entre otras, frente a las Máquinas Herramientas de Control numérico (MHCN) que necesitan de una gran inversión para trabajar piezas muy grandes o incrementar sus grados de libertad. Como desventajas, frente a las MHCN, los brazos robóticos poseen menor rigidez, lo que combinado con las altas fuerzas producidas en los procesos de mecanizado hace que aparezcan errores de precisión, desviaciones en las trayectorias, vibraciones y, por consiguiente, una mala calidad en las piezas fabricadas. Entre los brazos robots, los brazos colaborativos están en auge debido a su programación intuitiva y a sus medidas de seguridad, que les permiten trabajar en el mismo espacio que los operadores sin que estos corran riesgos. Como desventaja añadida de los robots colaborativos se encuentra la mayor flexibilidad que estos tienen en sus articulaciones, debido a que incluyen reductores del tipo Harmonic drive. El uso de un control de fuerza en procesos de mecanizado con brazos robots permite controlar y corregir en tiempo real las desviaciones generadas por la flexibilidad en las articulaciones del robot. Utilizar este método de control es beneficioso en cualquier brazo robot; sin embargo, el control interno que incluyen los robots colaborativos presenta ventajas que permiten que el control de fuerza pueda ser aplicado de una manera más eficiente. En el presente trabajo se desarrolla una propuesta real para la inclusión del control de esfuerzos en el brazo robot, así como también, se evalúa y cuantifica la capacidad de los robots industriales y colaborativos en tareas de mecanizado. La propuesta plantea cómo mejorar la utilización de un control de fuerza por bucle interior/exterior aplicado en un brazo colaborativo cuando se desconocen los pares reales de los motores del robot, así como otros parámetros internos que los fabricantes no dan a conocer. Este bucle de control interior/exterior ha sido utilizado en aplicaciones de pulido y lijado sobre diferentes materiales. Los resultados indican que el robot colaborativo es factible para realizar tales operaciones de mecanizado. Sus mejores resultados se obtienen cuando se utiliza un bucle de control interno por velocidad y un bucle de control externo de fuerza con algoritmos, Proporcional-Integral-Derivativo o Proporcional más Pre-Alimentación de la Fuerza. / [CA] El mecanitzat amb braços robots ha estat estudiat aproximadament des dels anys 90, durant aquest temps s'han dut a terme importants avanços i descobriments en el que fa al seu camp d'aplicació. En general, els robots manipuladors tenen molts beneficis i avantatges al ser usats en operacions de mecanitzat, com ara, flexibilitat, gran àrea de treball i facilitat de programació, entre d'altres, davant de Màquines Eines de Control Numèric (MECN) que necessiten d'una gran inversió per treballar peces molt grans o incrementar els seus graus de llibertat. Com a desavantatges, enfront de les MECN, els braços robòtics posseeixen menor rigidesa, el que combinat amb les altes forces produïdes en els processos de mecanitzat fa que apareguin errors de precisió, desviacions en les trajectòries, vibracions i, per tant, una mala qualitat en les peces fabricades. Entre els braços robots, els braços col·laboratius estan en auge a causa de la seva programació intuïtiva i a les seves mesures de seguretat, que els permeten treballar en el mateix espai que els operadors sense que aquests corrin riscos. Com desavantatge afegida als robots col·laboratius es troba la major flexibilitat que aquests tenen en les seves articulacions, a causa de que inclouen reductors del tipus Harmonic drive. L'ús d'un control de força en processos de mecanitzat amb braços robots permet controlar, i corregir, en temps real les desviacions generades per la flexibilitat en les articulacions del robot. Utilitzar aquest mètode de control és beneficiós en qualsevol braç robot, però, el control intern que inclouen els robots col·laboratius presenta avantatges que permeten que el control de força es puga aplicar d'una manera més eficient. En el present treball es desenvolupa una proposta real per a la inclusió del control d'esforços en el braç robot, així com s'avalua i quantifica la capacitat dels robots industrials i col·laboratius en tasques de mecanitzat. La proposta planteja com millorar la utilització d'un control de força per bucle interior/exterior aplicat en un braç col·laboratiu, quan es desconeixen els parells reals dels motors del robot, així com altres paràmetres interns que els fabricants no donen a conèixer. Aquest bucle de control interior/exterior ha estat utilitzat en aplicacions de polit sobre diferents materials. Els resultats indiquen que el robot col·laboratiu és factible de realitzar aquestes operacions de mecanitzat. Els seus millors resultats s'obtenen quan s'utilitza un bucle de control intern per velocitat i un bucle de control extern de força amb els algoritmes Proporcional-Integral-Derivatiu o Proporcional més Pre-alimentació de la Força. / [EN] Machining with robot arms has been studied approximately since the 90s; during this time, important advances and discoveries have been made in its field of application. In general, manipulative robots have many benefits and advantages when they are used in machining operations, such as flexibility, large work area, and ease of programming, among others, compared to Numerical Control Machine Tools (NCMT) that need a great investment to work very large pieces or increase their degrees of freedom. As for disadvantages, compared to NCMT, robotic arms have lower rigidity, which, combined with the high forces produced in machining processes, causes precision errors, path deviations, vibrations, and, consequently, poor quality in the manufactured parts. Among robot arms, collaborative arms are on the rise due to their intuitive programming and safety measures, which allow them to work in the same space without risk for the operators. An added disadvantage of collaborative robots is their flexibility in their joints because they include Harmonic drive type reducers. The use of force control in machining processes with robot arms makes possible to control and correct, in real-time, the deviations generated by the flexibility in the robot's joints. The use of this control method is beneficial for any robot arm. However, the internal control included in collaborative robots has advantages that allow the force control to be applied more efficiently. In this work, a real proposal is developed to include effort control in the robot arm. The capacity of industrial and collaborative robots in machining tasks is evaluated and quantified. The proposal recommends how to improve the use of an inner/outer force control loop applied in a collaborative arm, when the real torques of the robot's motors are unknown and other internal parameters that manufacturers do not disclose. This inner/outer control loop has been used in polishing and sanding applications on different materials.

Control of robotic mobile manipulators : application to civil engineering / Commande de manipulateurs mobiles robotisés : application au génie civil

Mohy El Dine, Kamal 23 May 2019 (has links)
Malgré le progrès de l'automatisation industrielle, les solutions robotiques ne sont pas encore couramment utilisées dans le secteur du génie civil. Plus spécifiquement, les tâches de ponçage, telles que le désamiantage, sont toujours effectuées par des opérateurs humains utilisant des outils électriques et hydrauliques classiques. Cependant, avec la diminution du coût relatif des machines par rapport au travail humain et les réglementations sanitaires strictes applicables à des travaux aussi risqués, les robots deviennent progressivement des alternatives crédibles pour automatiser ces tâches et remplacer les humains.Dans cette thèse, des nouvelles approches de contrôle de ponçage de surface sont élaborées. Le premier contrôleur est un contrôleur hybride position-force avec poignet conforme. Il est composé de 3 boucles de commande, force, position et admittance. La commutation entre les commandes pourrait créer des discontinuités, ce qui a été résolu en proposant une commande de transition. Dans ce contrôleur, la force de choc est réduite par la commande de transition proposée entre les modes espace libre et contact. Le second contrôleur est basé sur un modèle de ponçage développé et un contrôleur hybride adaptatif position-vitesse-force. Les contrôleurs sont validés expérimentalement sur un bras robotique à 7 degrés de liberté équipé d'une caméra et d'un capteur de force-couple. Les résultats expérimentaux montrent de bonnes performances et les contrôleurs sont prometteurs. De plus, une nouvelle approche pour contrôler la stabilité des manipulateurs mobiles en temps réel est présentée. Le contrôleur est basé sur le « zero moment point », il a été testé dans des simulations et il a été capable de maintenir activement la stabilité de basculement du manipulateur mobile tout en se déplaçant. En outre, les incertitudes liées à la modélisation et aux capteurs sont prises en compte dans les contrôleurs mentionnés où des observateurs sont proposés.Les détails du développement et de l'évaluation des différents contrôleurs proposés sont présentés, leurs mérites et leurs limites sont discutés et des travaux futurs sont suggérés. / Despite the advancements in industrial automation, robotic solutions are not yet commonly used in the civil engineering sector. More specifically, grinding tasks such as asbestos removal, are still performed by human operators using conventional electrical and hydraulic tools. However, with the decrease in the relative cost of machinery with respect to human labor and with the strict health regulations on such risky jobs, robots are progressively becoming credible alternatives to automate these tasks and replace humans.In this thesis, novel surface grinding control approaches are elaborated. The first controller is based on hybrid position-force controller with compliant wrist and a smooth switching strategy. In this controller, the impact force is reduced by the proposed smooth switching between free space and contact modes. The second controller is based on a developed grinding model and an adaptive hybrid position-velocity-force controller. The controllers are validated experimentally on a 7-degrees-of-freedom robotic arm equipped with a camera and a force-torque sensor. The experimental results show good performances and the controllers are promising. Additionally, a new approach for controlling the stability of mobile manipulators in real time is presented. The controller is based on zero moment point, it is tested in simulations and it was able to actively maintain the tip-over stability of the mobile manipulator while moving. Moreover, the modeling and sensors uncertainties are taken into account in the mentioned controllers where observers are proposed. The details of the development and evaluation of the several proposed controllers are presented, their merits and limitations are discussed and future works are suggested.

Modeling of Multiphysics Electromagnetic & Mechanical Coupling and Vibration Controls Applied to Switched Reluctance Machine / Modélisation multiphysique du couplage électromagnétique/mécanique et développement de contrôles de vibration appliqués aux machines à réluctance variable

Zhang, Man 12 September 2018 (has links)
En raison de ses avantages inhérents, tels que son faible coût, sa fiabilité élevée, sa capacité de fonctionnement à grande vitesse et en environnements difficiles, la machine à réluctance variable (MRV) est une solution attrayante pour l'industrie automobile. Cependant, la traction automobile est une application pour laquelle le comportement acoustique du groupe motopropulseur doit être particulièrement considéré, dans l'optique de ne pas dégrader le confort des passagers. Afin de rendre la MRV compétitive pour cette application automobile, le travail présenté se concentre sur plusieurs méthodes de contrôle cherchant à améliorer le comportement acoustique des MRV en réduisant les vibrations d'origine électromagnétique. Un modèle multi-physique électromagnétique / mécanique semi-analytique est proposé à partir de résultats de simulation numérique obtenus par la méthode des éléments finis. Ce modèle multiphysique est composé de modèles électromagnétiques et structurels, qui sont reliés par la composante radiale de la force électromagnétique. Deux méthodes de contrôle sont ensuite proposées. La première réduit la vibration en faisant varier l'angle de coupure du courant, la fréquence du la variation étant basée sur les propriétés mécaniques de la structure MRV. De plus, une fonction aléatoire uniformément distribuée est introduite pour éviter une composante fréquentielle locale de forte vibration. Une seconde méthode est basée sur le contrôle direct de la force (DFC), qui vise à obtenir une force radiale globale plus douce pour réduire les vibrations. Un adaptateur de courant de référence (RCA) est proposé pour limiter l'ondulation de couple introduite par le DFC, provoquée par l'absence de limitation de courant. Cette seconde méthode de réduction des vibrations appelée DFC & RCA est évaluée par des tests expérimentaux utilisant un prototype de MRV 8/6 afin de montrer sa pertinence. Une solution de partitionnement hardware/software est proposée pour implémenter cette méthode sur une carte FPGA utilisée en combinaison avec un microprocesseur. / Due to its inherent advantages Switched Reluctance Machine (SRM) are appealing to the automotive industry. However, automotive traction is a very noise sensitive application where the acoustic behavior of the power train may be the distinction between market success and market failure. To make SRM more competitive in the automotive application, this work will focus on the control strategy to improve the acoustic behavior of SRM by vibration reduction. A semi-analytical electromagnetic/structural multi-physics model is proposed based on the simulation results of numerical computation. This multi-physics model is composed by electromagnetic and structural models, which are connected by the radial force. Two control strategies are proposed. The first strategy to improve the acoustic behavior of SRM by vibration reduction. A semi-analytical electromagnetic/ structural multi-physics model is proposed based on the simulation results of numerical computation. This multi-physics model is composed by electromagnetic and structural models, which are connected by the radial force. Two control strategies are proposed. The first one reduces the vibration by varying the turn-off angle, the frequency of the variable signal is based on the mechanical property of switched reluctance machine. Besides, an uniformly distributed random function is introduced to avoid local high vibration component. Another one is based on the Direct Force Control (DFC), which aims to obtain a smoother total radial force to reduce the vibration. An reference current adapter (RCA) is proposed to limit the torque ripple introduced by the DFC, which is caused by the absence of the current limitation. The second vibration reduction strategy named DFC&RCA is evaluated by experimental tests using an 8/6 SRM prototype. A hardware/software partitioning solution is proposed to implement this method, where FPGA board is used combined with a Microprocessor.
