چکیده

In this paper it is proposed the extension of an efficient method employed for non-holonomic mobile robots to the path tracking of tractors with a trailer. The main advantage of this pure geometric technique is that no kinematic model of the vehicle is needed, which is an interesting property when working in irregular terrain or with tracks instead of wheels. The differences of applying this method to the combined system appear when avoiding collisions of the vehicle with the trailer and while moving in reverse direction. This technique has been successfully implemented and tested in the outdoor mobile robot Auriga-α. Copyright © 2002 IFAC

Trajectory Tracking Weeled Mobile Robot Using Backstepping Method with Connection off Axle Trailer

The connection of the tractor to the inactive trailer or motor vehicle causes a motion control problem when turning in the screw, forward or backward movements and high speeds. This is due to the inactive trailer being controlled by the tracking using a physical link that is not affected by the movement. Trailers usually take tracks under these conditions. This phenomenon is called Jack Knife. ...

Delay Compensation on Fuzzy Trajectory Tracking Control of Omni-Directional Mobile Robots

This paper presents a delay compensator fuzzy control for trajectory tracking of omni-directional mobile robots. Fuzzy logic control (FLC) of the robots is a suitable strategy for dealing with model uncertainties, nonlinearities and disturbances.  On the other hand, in many robotic applications such as mobile robots, delay phenomenon is able to substantially deteriorate the behavior of system's...

Motion planning and control for Hilare pulling a trailer

| This paper 0 deals with motion planning and control for mobile robots. The various components of an integrated architecture for the mobile robot Hilare pulling a trailer are presented. The nonholonomic path planner is based on an original steering method accounting for the small-time controllability of the system. Then the path is transformed into a trajectory by including the dynamical const...
