Parallel robots present singular configurations that divide the operational workspace into several aspects. It was proven that type 2 and leg passive joint twist system (LPJTS) singularities can be crossed with a trajectory respecting a given dynamic criterion. However, the practical implementation of a controller able to track such trajectories is up to now limited to restrictive cases of type 2 singularities crossing. Analyzing the structure of the inverse dynamic model, this paper proposes a global solution allowing the tracking of trajectories respecting the general criterion for any singularity that leads to potential issues of dynamic model degeneracy. The tracking is operated in the robot joint space. Experimental results on a five-bar mechanism showed the controller ability to successfully cross type 2 singularities.

SUMMARYModel-based advanced control approaches are needed to achieve high speed and acceleration and precision in robotic operations. These control schemes need a proper dynamic model. Many approaches have been proposed by different authors in order to obtain the dynamic model of these structures. However, most of them do not consider the possibility to introduce redundant sensor data. In this paper, a methodology for obtaining a compact dynamic model considering passive joint sensor data is proposed. The dynamic model is defined in compact and structured form, which makes it appropriate to be used in advanced control techniques.

In three-phase three-wire (3P3W) voltage-source converter (VSC) systems, utilization of filter inductors with deep saturation characteristics is often advantageous due to the improved size, cost, and efficiency. However, with the use of conventional synchronous frame current control (CSCC) methods, the inductor saturation results in significant dynamic performance loss and poor steady-state current waveform quality. This paper proposes an inverse dynamic model based compensation (IDMBC) method to overcome these performance issues. Accordingly, a review of inductor saturation and core materials is performed, and the motivation on the use of saturable inductors is clarified. Then, two-phase exact modelling of the 3P3W VSC control system is obtained and the drawbacks of CSCC have been demonstrated analytically. Based on the exact modelling, the inverse system dynamic model of the nonlinear system is obtained and employed such that the nonlinear plant is converted to a fictitious linear inductor system for linear current regulators to perform satisfactorily.

Parallel robots find many applications in human-systems interaction, medical robots, rehabilitation, exoskeletons, to name a few. These applications are characterized by many imperatives, with robust precision and dynamic workspace computation as the two ultimate ones. This paper presents kinematic analysis, workspace, design and control to 3 degrees of freedom (DOF) parallel robots. Parallel robots have received considerable attention from both researchers and manufacturers over the past years because of their potential for high stiffness, low inertia and high speed capability. Therefore, the 3 DOF translation parallel robots provide high potential and good prospects for their practical implementation in human-systems interaction.

This paper addresses the kinematics and dynamics modeling of a 4-DOF cable-driven parallel manipulator with new architecture and a typical Computed Torque Method (CTM) controller is developed for dynamic model in SimMechanics. The novelty of kinematic architecture and the closed loop formulation is presented. The workspace model of mechanism’s dynamic is obtained in an efficient and compact form by means of natural orthogonal complement (NOC) method which leads to the elimination of the nonworking kinematic-constraint wrenches and also to the derivation of the minimum number of equations. To verify the dynamic model and analyze the dynamical properties of novel 4-DOF cable-driven parallel manipulator, a typical CTM control scheme in joint-space is designed for dynamic model in SimMechanics.

In the present research, a previously presented beam element in planar static problems is extended to planar dynamic problems. As investigated in the previous work of the author, formulation of the presented Euler–Bernoulli beam element is simpler and the beam element more efficient than similar elements in large deflection problems. In the present element, the main idea is estimating the dimensions of the body in the deformed configuration, instead of estimating its absolute or relative positions. Therefore, two parameters, the length and slope angle of the beam centroid curve, are selected to be estimated by interpolating polynomials. To verify the efficiency of the element, obtained results for the flexible pendulum are compared with previous works. Because of the simple and efficient formulation of the element, it can be efficiently used for dynamic analysis of planar flexible linkages, and especially in flexible parallel robots, which are the main aims of the present research. Finally, the inverse dynamic of the flexible 3-RRR parallel robot is presented.

And Control

Due to the demands from the robotic industry, robot structures have evolved from serial to parallel. The control of parallel robots for high performance and high speed tasks has always been a challenge to control engineers. Following traditional control engineering approaches, it is possible to design advanced algorithms for parallel robot control. These approaches, however, may encounter problems such as heavy computational load and modeling errors, to name it a few. To avoid heavy computation, simplified dynamic models can be obtained by applying approximation techniques, nevertheless, performance accuracy will suffer due to modeling errors. This paper suggests applying an integrated design and control approach, i.e., the Design For Control (DFC) approach, to handle this problem. The underlying idea of the DFC approach can be illustrated as follows: Intuitively, a simple control algorithm can control a structure with a simple dynamic model quite well. Therefore, no matter how sophisticate a desired motion task is, if the mechanical structure is designed such that it results in a simple dynamic model, then, to design a controller for this system will not be a difficult issue. As such, complicated control design can be avoided, on-line computation load can be reduced and better control performance can be achieved. Through out the discussion in the paper, a 2 DOF parallel robot is redesigned based on the DFC concept in order to obtain a simpler dynamic model based on a mass-balancing method. Then a simple PD controller can drive the robot to achieve accurate point-to-point tracking tasks. Theoretical analysis has proven that the simple PD control can guarantee a stable system. Experimental results have successfully demonstrated the effectiveness of this integrated design and control approach.

Optimal Force

In the present paper, we expand information about the conditions for passing through Type 2 singular configurations of a parallel manipulator. It is shown that any parallel manipulator can cross the singular configurations via an optimal control permitting the favorable force distribution, i.e., the wrench applied on the end-effector by the legs and external efforts must be reciprocal to the twist along with the direction of the uncontrollable motion. The previous studies have proposed the optimal control conditions for the manipulators with rigid links and flexible actuated joints. The different polynomial laws have been obtained and validated for each examined case. The present study considers the conditions for passing through Type 2 singular configurations for the parallel manipulators with flexible links. By computing the inverse dynamic model of a general flexible parallel robot, the necessary conditions for passing through Type 2 singular configurations are deduced. The suggested approach is illustrated by a 5R parallel manipulator with flexible elements and joints. It is shown that a 16th order polynomial law is necessary for the optimal force generation. The obtained results are validated by numerical simulations carried out using the software ADAMS.
