Structure Control

This paper addresses the problem of robust hybrid position and force control of robot manipulators. Variable structure control with sliding mode is used to implement the hybrid control strategy. Two variable structure control algorithms are developed in task space. One of the algorithms is based on hierarchical control method, and the other is developed for control of robot manipulators used to carried out both unconstrained and constrained tasks.

In this paper, the kinematics and dynamics of free-floating space robot system with dual-arms are analyzed. It is shown that the dynamic equations of the system are nonlinearly according to inertial parameters. In order to overcome these problems, the system is modeled as under-actuated robot system, and the idea of augmentation approach is adopted. It is demonstrated that the dynamic equations of the system can be linearly depending on a group of inertial parameters. Based on this result, a robust variable structure control scheme for free-floating space robot system with dual-arms with uncertain inertial parameters to track the desired trajectories in joint space is proposed, and a planar space robot system with dual-arms is simulated to verify the proposed control scheme. The advantage of the control scheme proposed is that it requires neither measuring the position, velocity and acceleration of the floating base with respect to the orbit nor controlling the position and attitude angle of the floating base. In addition to this advantage, it is computationally simple, because of choosing the controller robust for the uncertain inertial parameters rather than explicitly estimating them online.
