Newton-Euler approach for bio-robotics locomotion dynamics : from discrete to continuous systems

Ali, Shaukat 20 December 2011 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis proposes a general and unified methodological framework suitable for studying the locomotion of a wide range of robots, especially bio-inspired. The objective of this thesis is twofold. First, it contributes to the classification of locomotion robots by adopting the mathematical tools developed by the American school of geometric mechanics.Secondly, by taking advantage of the recursive nature of the Newton-Euler formulation, it proposes numerous efficient tools in the form of computational algorithms capable of solving the external direct dynamics and the internal inverse dynamics of any locomotion robot considered as a mobile multi-body system. These generic tools can help the engineers or researchers in the design, control and motion planning of manipulators as well as locomotion robots with a large number of internal degrees of freedom. The efficient algorithms are proposed for discrete and continuous robots. These methodological tools are applied to numerous illustrative examples taken from the bio-inspired robotics such as snake-like robots, caterpillars, and others like snake-board, etc.

Modelagem e otimização de um robô de arquitetura paralela para aplicações industriais. / Modeling and optimization of a parallel architecture robot for industrial applications.

Tartari Filho, Sylvio Celso 07 April 2006 (has links)
Este trabalho trata do estudo de robôs de arquitetura paralela, focando na modelagem e otimização dos mesmos. Não foi construído nenhum tipo de protótipo físico, contudo os modelos virtuais poderão, no futuro, habilitar tal façanha. Após uma busca por uma aplicação que se beneficie do uso de um robô de arquitetura paralela, fez-se uma pesquisa por arquiteturas viáveis já existentes ou relatadas na literatura. Escolheu-se a mais apta e prosseguiu-se com os estudos e modelagem cinemática e dinâmica, dando uma maior ênfase na cinemática e dinâmica inversa, esta última utilizando a formulação de Newton - Euler. Foi construído um simulador virtual em ambiente MATLAB 6.5, dotado de várias capacidades como interpolação linear e circular, avanço e uso de múltiplos eixos coordenados. Seu propósito principal é o de demonstrar a funcionalidade e eficácia dos métodos utilizados. Depois foi incorporado ao simulador um algoritmo de cálculo do volume de trabalho da máquina que utiliza alguns dados do usuário para calcular o volume, que pode ser aquele atrelado a uma postura em particular ou o volume de trabalho de orientação total. Algoritmos para medir o desempenho da máquina quanto à uniformidade e utilização da força dos atuadores foram construídos e também incorporados ao simulador, que consegue mostrar o elipsóide de forças ao longo de quaisquer movimentos executados pela plataforma móvel. Quanto à otimização, parte do ferramental previamente construído foi utilizado para que se pudesse chegar a um modelo de uma máquina que respeitasse restrições mínimas quanto ao tamanho e forma de seu volume de trabalho, mas ainda mantendo o melhor desempenho possível dentro deste volume. / This work is about the study of parallel architecture robots, focusing in modeling and optimization. No physical prototypes were built, although the virtual models can help those willing to do so. After searching for an application that could benefit from the use of a parallel robot, another search was made, this time for the right architecture type. After selecting the architecture, the next step was the kinematics and dynamics analysis. The dynamics model is developed using the Newton ? Euler method. A virtual simulator was also developed in MATLAB 6.5 environment. The simulator?s main purpose was to demonstrate that the methods applied were correct and efficient, so it has several features such as linear and circular interpolations, capacity to use multiple coordinate systems and others. After finishing the simulator, an algorithm to calculate the machine workspace was added. The algorithm receives as input some desired requirements regarding the manipulator pose and then calculates the workspace, taking into consideration imposed constraints. Lastly, algorithms capable to measure the manipulator?s performance regarding to its actuator and end-effector force relationship were also incorporated into the simulator that calculates the machine?s force ellipsoid during any movement, for each desired workspace point. For the optimization procedures, some previously developed tools were used, so that the resulting model was capable to respect some workspace constraints regarding size and shape, but also maintaining the best performance possible inside this volume.

Newton-Euler approach for bio-robotics locomotion dynamics : from discrete to continuous systems / Une approche Newton-Euter pour la dynamique de la locomotion bio-robotique : Des systèmes discrets vers les systèmes continus

Ali, Shaukat 20 December 2011 (has links)
Cette thèse propose un cadre méthodologique général et unifié adapté à l’étude de la locomotion d'une large gamme de robots, en particulier bio-inspirés. L'objectif de cette thèse est double. Tout d'abord, elle contribue à la classification des robots locomoteurs en adoptant les outils mathématiques mis en place par l'école américaine de mécanique géométrique. Deuxièmement,en profitant de la nature récursive de la formulation de Newton-Euler, elle propose de nouveaux outils efficaces sous la forme d'algorithmes aptes à résoudre les dynamiques externe directe et interne inverse de tout robot locomoteur approximable par un système multicorps mobile. Ces outils génériques peuvent aider l’ingénieur ou le chercheur dans la conception, la commande, la planification de mouvement des robots locomoteurs ou manipulateurs comprenant un grand nombre de degrés de liberté internes. Des algorithmes effectifs sont proposés pour les robots discrets ainsi que continus. Ces outils méthodologiques sont appliqués à de nombreux exemples illustratifs empruntés à la robotique bio-inspirée tels les robots serpents, chenilles et autres snake-board… / This thesis proposes a general and unified methodological framework suitable for studying the locomotion of a wide range of robots, especially bio-inspired.
