Reza Oftadeh | Accurate Pose Estimation of KNTU CDRPM Moving Platform, from position and force sensing on Cables Abstract Cable driven redundant parallel manipulators (CDRPM) have prominent characteristics such as wide workspace, higher payload per moving mass and capacity to produce ultra-high accelerations. These abilities make these manipulators a sensible candidate for many industrial tasks. This thesis investigates the different aspects of these manipulators in both theoretical and practical approaches. First, a precise analysis is given for both planar and spatial models of these manipulators. Moreover a new analytical solution is developed for forward kinematic problem of the planar model by using force sensors data. It is shown that this solution is faster and more accurate compare to previous solutions presented for this problem. Next, a new method is developed to analysis the dynamics of general CDRPMs with rigid cable. This method eventuates to an explicit dynamic equation for these manipulators. In this analysis, dynamics of variable mass systems is used to meticulously model the translation of cable mass inside and outside of the workspace. Both Newton-Euler and Lagrange formulation is used to derive the dynamic model and it is shown that both formulations lead to an identical dynamic equation. Afterwards, a general dynamic model is derived for CDRPMs with elastic cables. This model can be used for different kinds of CDRPMs with diverse structures. In order to verify the developed model, it is shown that many elastic equations derived for cables in the literature are special cases of this generalized model. At last, in a practical approach, design and production of different mechanical systems of KNTU CDRPM is presented. In this part, based on project requirements, the selection procedure of the cables, frame and force sensors are stated. Moreover, a new design for robot winch system is demonstrated which preserves the position of the cable attachment points. Some views of the produced system along with production drafts of the parts are also presented. | 2010 | M.Sc. | Parallel and Cable Robotics |
Mohammad Reza Sabaghian | Multivariable Identification & Control of the Servo-Hydraulic Robot Shoulder Abstract Parallel mechanisms have been the subject of many researches in recent two decades. These mechanisms are more precise and powerful with respect to serial ones. The major point around these mechanisms is the singularity problem which can be overcome by smart designing. Hydraulic shoulder is a parallel mechanism using four actuators to achieve three degree of freedom. Identification and control of the shoulder is the subject of this research. This text can be divided in two major parts. In the first section, the hydraulic shoulder has been surveyed and identified as a 4x4 transfer function. Centralized control is the topic of the next section. Inverse Nyquist array is used to obtain diagonal dominance and four proportional-integral controllers are used to close the loop. However, sensitivity to noise and sensitivity to changes of the nominal model make this method unsuitable for the real world. To overcome the problem, a H∞ robust controller is designed which make the closed loop system robust and less sensitive to noise. At the end of this thesis, different methods of controlling the shoulder are compared. | 2005 | M.Sc. | Parallel and Cable Robotics |
