In this paper, the dynamic controller design problem of a redundant planar 2-dof parallel manipulator is studied. Using the Euler-Lagrange equation, we formulate the dynamic model of the parallel manipulator in the joint space and propose an augmented PD controller with forward dynamic compensation for the parallel manipulator. By formulating the controller in the joint space, we eliminate the ...

Space manipulators mounted on an on-o thrustercontrolled base are envisioned to assist in the assembly and maintenance of space structures. When handling large payloads, manipulator joint and link exibility become important, for they can result in payload-attitude controller fuel-replenishing dynamic interactions. In this paper, the dynamics model of an Nexible-joint space manipulator is develo...

A space manipulator plays an important role in spacecraft capturing, repairing, maintenance, and so on. However, the harsh space environment will cause its joints fail to work. For a non-redundant manipulator, single joint locked failure will cause it to lose one degree of freedom (DOF), hence reducing its movement ability. In this paper, the key problems related to the fault-tolerant including...

In this work is considered the problem of rest-to-rest motion in a desired pre-fixed time for planar flexible manipulators. We introduce a simple idea permitting the minimization of end-effector residual vibration when reaching a desired angular equilibrium position, in a pre-fixed desired travelling time. The results hold without considering internal elastic damping effect, using a classical c...

A noncollocated system has the potential of providing more precise tracking, improved disturbance rejection and increased bandwidth at the sensor location, but is considerably more difficult to stabilize than a collocated system due to its nonminimum phase nature. For a flexible manipulator, the problem becomes even more complicated because the system is inherently infinite dimensional. In this...

Type-1 fuzzy sets cannot fully handle the uncertainties. To overcome the problem, type-2 fuzzy sets have been proposed. The novelty of this paper is using interval type-2 fuzzy logic controller (IT2FLC) to control a flexible-joint robot with voltage control strategy. In order to take into account the whole robotic system including the dynamics of actuators and the robot manipulator, the voltage...

In this paper, the inverse kinematic control of a 6-DOF robot manipulator is achieved using visual motor coordination (VMC). Here the positional data is converted into image plane data of a pair of cameras. The Redundancy resolution is a prime goal for the robot manipulator with higher dimensional joint space than the task-space. In this work, we present five schemes for this redundancy resolut...

We propose a method for motion control of a redundant manipulator on a flexible base. Manipulator selfmotion is determined from a velocity-level additional constraint obtained from base vibration dynamics. End-effector path tracking is ensured via pseudoinverse-based velocity control. In this way, algorithmic singularities associated with the additional constraint are avoided. The vibration sup...

This paper describes the design, implementation, and machine learning issues associated with developing a control system for a serpentine robotic manipulator. The purpose of the control system is to provide autonomous/teleoperative control of the serpentine robotic manipulator, as well as full robotic control during operation of the manipulator within an enclosed environment such as an undergro...
