The contact process of a space docking device needs verification before launching. The verification cannot only rely on the software simulation since the contact dynamic models are not accurate enough yet, especially when the geometric shape of the device is complex. Hardware-in-the-loop simulation is a choice to perform the ground test, where the contact dynamic model is replaced by a real device and the real contact occurs. However, the Hardware-in-the-loop simulation suffers from energy increase and instability since time delay is unavoidable. The existing delay compensation methods are mainly focused on a uniaxial or three-dimensional contact. In this paper, a force-based delay compensation method is proposed for the hardware-in-the-loop simulation of a six degree-of-freedom space contact. A six degree-of-freedom dynamic model of the spacecraft motion is derived, and a six degree-of-freedom delay compensation method is proposed. The delay is divided into track delay and measurement delay, which are compensated individually. Experiment results show that the proposed delay compensation method is effective for the six degree-of-freedom space contact.

Abstract This paper presents an algorithm for the determination of the workspace of parallel manipulators. The method described here, which is based on geometrical properties of the workspace, leads to a simple graphical representation of the regions of the three-dimensional Cartesian space that are attainable by the manipulator with a given orientation of the platform. Moreover, the volume of the workspace can be easily computed by performing an integration on its boundary, which is obtained from the algorithm. Examples are included to illustrate the application of the method to a six-degree-of-freedom fully-parallel manipulator.

A numerical model is being developed to solve for six-degree-of-freedom forces experienced by a cavitating, stepped planing hull. An approach to solving the cavitation or ventilation problem is described. Next a method for solving for spray roots on the hull is detailed and a method for approximating the transom wake for a 3 dimensional planing hull is discussed. Results of the cavity solver for a three-dimensional linear solution are presented. Finally results in the context of three-dimensional planing hull steady resistance simulations are presented and compared to RANS CFD and tow tank experiments.

And Control

An active disturbance rejection guidance and control scheme for homing missiles with three-dimensional impact angle constraints is proposed. The six-degree-of-freedom dynamical and kinematical models containing model uncertainties and disturbances are established. A strict feedback relative dynamics between the target and homing missile in three-dimensional space are deduced. A reconstructed reduced-order attitude controller design model is proposed. A two-loop control structure with respect to the centroid guidance loop and rotational control loop is conducted to implement the six-degree-of-freedom guidance and control system with the help of second-order sliding mode approach and extended state observers. The tracking loop of the Euler angles of the missile can be elided and the number of six-degree-of-freedom control parameters can be reduced. Finally, the effectiveness and robustness of the newly proposed guidance and control scheme are investigated and verified via six-degree-of-freedom nonlinear simulation studies.

Six Degree Of Freedom

A new method for obtaining the force and moment workspaces of spatial parallel manipulators (PMs) is presented. Force and moment workspaces are regions within which a manipulator can sustain/apply at least a certain value of force or moment in all directions. Here, the force and moment workspaces are found using a method, which explicitly sets the largest possible number of actuators to their maximum limits ensuring that the manipulator is performing at its best possible wrench capabilities. Two cases for obtaining these workspaces are used. The first gives the applicable/sustainable force with a prescribed moment whereas the second one gives the applicable/sustainable moment with a prescribed force. For illustration purposes, the method is applied to a six-degree-of-freedom (DOF) redundantly-actuated spatial PM, the 3-RRṞS. The results are represented graphically as the boundaries of the workspace in the three-dimensional Cartesian space. These workspaces can be used as a powerful tool for path/task planning and PM design.
