PurposeWhen the mobile manipulator is traveling on an unconstructed terrain, the external disturbance is generated. The load on the end of the mobile manipulator will be affected strictly by the disturbance. The purpose of this paper is to reject the disturbance and keep the end effector in a stable pose all the time, a control method is proposed for the onboard manipulator.Design/methodology/approachIn this paper, the kinematics and dynamics models of the end pose stability control system for the tracked robot are built. Through the guidance of this model information, the control framework based on active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) is designed, which keeps the attitude of the end of the manipulator stable in the pitch, roll and yaw direction. Meanwhile, the control algorithm is operated with cloud computing because the research object, the rescue robot, aims to be lightweight and execute work with remote manipulation.FindingsThe challenging simulation experiments demonstrate that the methodology can achieve valid stability control performance in the challenging terrain road in terms of robustness and real-time.Originality/valueThis research facilitates the stable posture control of the end-effector of the mobile manipulator and maintains it in a suitable stable operating environment. The entire system can normally work even in dynamic disturbance scenarios and uncertain nonlinear modeling. Furthermore, an example is given to guide the parameter tuning of ADRC by using model information and estimate the unknown internal modeling uncertainty, which is difficult to be modeled or identified.
目的当移动机械手在未施工的地形上运行时,会产生外部扰动。移动机械手末端的载荷将受到扰动的严格影响。为了抑制扰动并使末端执行器始终保持稳定位姿,提出了一种机载机械手的控制方法。设计/方法/方法本文建立了履带机器人末端位姿稳定控制系统的运动学和动力学模型。通过该模型信息的指导,设计了基于自抗扰控制(ADRC)的控制框架,使机械手末端姿态在俯仰、横摇和偏航方向上保持稳定。同时,由于研究对象救援机器人的目标是轻量化和远程操作,因此控制算法采用云计算操作。结果具有挑战性的仿真实验表明,该方法在具有鲁棒性和实时性的复杂地形路面上能够取得有效的稳定控制性能。独创性/价值本研究有利于移动机械手末端执行器的稳定姿态控制,使其保持在合适的稳定工作环境中。整个系统即使在动态扰动和不确定非线性建模的情况下也能正常工作。最后给出了利用模型信息指导自抗扰控制器参数整定的实例,并对难以建模或辨识的未知内部建模不确定性进行了估计。

First, according to the human grinding experimental data, the skilled worker’s arm impedance regulation is calculated. Next, the human skills are encapsulated as the statistical learning model where the kernel parameters are learned from the demonstration data by Gaussian process regression (GPR) algorithms. The desired profiles of robot are generated by the task planner based on the learned skill knowledge model. Lastly, the learned skill knowledge model is integrated with an adaptive hybrid position-force controller over the trajectory and force of end-effector in robot belt grinding task.,Manual grinding skills are represented and transferred to robot belt grinding for higher grinding quality of the workpiece.,The impedance of the manual grinding is estimated by k-means++ algorithm at different grinding phases. Manual grinding skills (e.g. trajectory, impedance regulation) are represented and modeled by GMM and GPR algorithms. The desired trajectory, force and impedance of robot are generated by the planner based on the learned skills knowledge model. An adaptive hybrid position-force controller is designed based on learned skill knowledge model.

PurposeIndoor localization is a key tool for robot navigation in indoor environments. Traditionally, robot navigation depends on one sensor to perform autonomous localization. This paper aims to enhance the navigation performance of mobile robots, a multiple data fusion (MDF) method is proposed for indoor environments.Design/methodology/approachHere, multiple sensor data i.e. collected information of inertial measurement unit, odometer and laser radar, are used. Then, an extended Kalman filter (EKF) is used to incorporate these multiple data and the mobile robot can perform autonomous localization according to the proposed EKF-based MDF method in complex indoor environments.FindingsThe proposed method has experimentally been verified in the different indoor environments, i.e. office, passageway and exhibition hall. Experimental results show that the EKF-based MDF method can achieve the best localization performance and robustness in the process of navigation.Originality/valueIndoor localization precision is mostly related to the collected data from multiple sensors. The proposed method can incorporate these collected data reasonably and can guide the mobile robot to perform autonomous navigation (AN) in indoor environments. Therefore, the output of this paper would be used for AN in complex and unknown indoor environments.

摘要多指机械人手具有多种抓握构型和不同的自由度,因此多指机械人手的控制是一个难点问题,其目的是实现稳定的抓握和灵巧的手部操作。为了实现这一目标,提出了一种新的对象级阻抗控制框架,优化了抓取力和抓取质量,用于多指机械手的抓取和手持操作。最小抓握力优化的目标是在满足摩擦锥约束的情况下,在保持适当的接触力的前提下,实现稳定的抓握。利用优化后的抓握质量函数,通过在物体上从初始抓握构型向最终抓握构型的动态滑动,获得最优抓握质量。通过所提出的控制器,可以实现对被抓物体的手握操作,并与环境力保持一致。通过Lyapunove函数证明,合理选择设计参数可以保证闭环机器人系统的控制性能。通过三指机械手的仿真,验证了所提控制器的效率和性能。提出了一种基于柔性控制器的机器人最优抓取和手持操作方法。它可以启发其他相关研究人员,在机器人的广泛应用中具有很大的实际应用潜力。

PurposeThis paper aims to unfold the role that job rotation plays in a lean cell. Unlike many studies, the authors consider heterogeneous operators with dynamic performance factor that is impacted by the assignment and scheduling decisions. The purpose is to derive an understanding of the underlying effects of job rotations on performance metrics in a lean cell. The authors use an optimization framework and an experimental design methodology for sensitivity analysis of the input parameters.Design/methodology/approachThe approach is an integration of three stages. The authors propose a set-based optimization model that considers human behavior parameters. They also solve the problem with two meta-heuristic algorithms and an efficient local search algorithm. Further, the authors run a post-optimality analysis by conducting a design of experiments using the response surface methodology (RSM).FindingsThe results of the optimization model reveal that the job rotation schedules and the human cognitive metrics influence the performance of the lean cell. The results of the sensitivity analysis further show that the objective function and the job rotation frequencies are highly sensitive to the other input parameters. Based on the findings from the RSM, the authors derive general rules for the job rotations in a lean cell given the ranges in other input variables.Originality/valueThe authors integrate the job rotation scheduling model with human behavioral and cognitive parameters and formulate the problem in a lean cell for the first time in the literature. In addition, they use the RSM for the first time in this context and offer a post-optimality analysis that reveals important information about the impact of the job rotations on the performance of operators and the entire working cell.
本文旨在揭示岗位轮换在精益细胞中的作用。与以往的研究不同,本文考虑了受分配和调度决策影响的异构操作系统的动态性能因素。目的是获得对精益单元中工作轮换对绩效指标的潜在影响的理解。作者使用优化框架和实验设计方法的敏感性分析的输入参数。设计/方法/方法方法是三个阶段的综合。作者提出了一种考虑人类行为参数的基于集合的优化模型。他们还采用了两种元启发式算法和一种高效的局部搜索算法来解决问题。此外,作者通过使用响应面方法(RSM)进行实验设计来运行后最优性分析。结果发现:优化模型的结果表明,工作轮换时间表和人类认知指标影响精益细胞的绩效。灵敏度分析结果进一步表明,目标函数和工作轮换频率对其他输入参数高度敏感。基于RSM的研究结果,作者在给定其他输入变量范围的情况下推导出精益单元中工作轮换的一般规则。原创性/价值作者将工作轮换调度模型与人类行为和认知参数相结合,并在文献中首次在精益细胞中提出问题。此外,他们还首次在这种情况下使用了RSM,并提供了后最优分析,揭示了作业轮换对作业者和整个工作单元性能影响的重要信息。
