Rover-arm Based Coring with Slip: Technological Development and Control Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Technology to enable core sample acquisition from a low-mass rover on slopes is being developed. A rotary percussive coring tool was integrated onto a low-mass rover and sensing, control, and simulation technologies are being developed. Initial results indicate that coring with modest rover slippage

Terramechanics-based Analysis and Control for Lunar/Planetary Exploration Robots
Surface mobility using wheeled mobile robots (Rovers) is one of the important technologies for lunar/planetary exploration missions. The rover in these missions significantly expands the exploration area and thus increases the scientific or programmatic return from the mission. These planetary exploration rovers are expected to travel long distances and perform complex tasks in order to fulfill...
متن کاملSlip-based Traction Control of a Planetary Rover
This paper investigates slip-based traction control of a planetary rover that travels over natural rough terrain. Special attention is made on tire-soil traction mechanics and articulated body dynamics. Experiments are carried out with a rover test bed to understand the physical behavior of tire-soil interaction and, thereby, a traction model is investigated using the tire slip ratio as a state...
متن کاملMotion Dynamics and Control of a Planetary Rover With Slip-Based Traction Model
This paper investigates kinetic behavior of a planetary rover with attention to tire-soil traction mechanics and articulated body dynamics, and thereby study the control when the rover travels over natural rough terrain. Experiments are carried out with a rover test bed to observe the physical phenomena of soils and to model the traction mechanics, using the tire slip ratio as a state variable....
متن کاملSlope traversal controls for planetary exploration rover on sandy terrain
In this paper, two control approaches are presented for exploration rovers traversing sandy-sloped terrain. One of the proposed controls is a model-based feed-forward control using a characteristic diagram, called a Thrust-cornering characteristic diagram. It consists of various characteristic curves of wheel forces for varied wheel slip conditions. An appropriate steering maneuver for slope tr...
متن کاملModel-based Control of a fast Rover over natural Terrain
A model-based control for fast autonomous four-wheel mobile robots on soft soils is developed. This control strategy takes into account slip and skid effects to extend the mobility over planar granular soils. Each wheel is independently actuated by an electric motor. The overall objective is to follow a path roughly at relatively high speed. Some results obtained in dynamic simulation are prese...
