Повний текст джерелаThis PhD thesis addresses the modelling,control and performance analysis of collaborative Cable-Driven Parallel Robots (CDPRs). An elasto-geometric modelling of the actuation elements is proposed to improve their positioning accuracy. Different inverse elastogeometricmodels are simulated and experimentally assessed then analysed in a sensitivity analysis.Then, control strategies allowing the physical interactions of operators with CDPRs are proposed. These strategies are based on the impedance control and allow the robots comanipulation. A hybrid controller for trajectory tracking and co-manipulation is presented and experimented. A safety device for the proximity detection based on the capacitive coupling principle is fitted to CDPRs and tested. Finally, user experiments are led to determine the performance of the proposed strategies.Three experiments led with volunte erenable the performance variation evaluationand the user behaviour study during physical human-CDPR interactions

Повний текст джерелаCable-Driven Parallel Robots (CDPRs) are parallel robots whose legs consist of cables. CDPRs may be used successfully in several industrial applications such as sandblasting and painting of large and heavy structures.The first part of this manuscript is dedicated to the modelling of CDPRs. Two elasto-static models have been introduced in this manuscript, in order to describe the small displacement of the moving platform due to the non-rigid nature of the cables. These models can be used for the modal analysis of the CDPRs, as well. The elasto-static model based on linear cables has been computed including the effect of the pulleys orienting the cables into the CDPR workspace.The second part of this manuscript deals with the investigation of the workspace of CDPRs, in terms of their moving platform static and dynamic equilibria, and in terms of their moving platform kinematic constraints. Two novel workspaces have been defined: (i) the Twist Feasible Workspace (TFW); (ii) the Improved Dynamic Feasible Workspace (IDFW). The third part of this manuscript describes a generic design strategy for CDPRs and a novel design strategy for Reconfigurable Cable-Driven Parallel Robots (RCDPRs). In this manuscript, reconfigurations are limited to the thedisplacement of the cable exit points, assuming the cables exit points can be installed on a large but finite set of locations.The fourth part of this manuscript introduces an algorithm to compute an optimal reconfiguration strategy for RCDPRs. This strategy can be used when the working environment of the RCDPR is extremely cluttered and when it is not possible to predict how many configurations are necessary to complete the task. The effectiveness of the algorithm hasbeen analysed by means of a planar and a spatial casestudies reproducing some industrial tasks
Weber, Xavier. "Commande modale de robots parallèles à câbles flexibles." Thesis, Strasbourg, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016STRAD026/document.
Повний текст джерелаCable-driven parallel robots use cables only to connect a fixed base to a mobile end-effector. Robot motion is obtained by winding the cables around pulleys to alter their length. Thus, cable-driven parallel robots are lightweight, can achieve very high dynamics and exhibit a very large workspace.Therefore, they are subject tp high magnitude and low frequency vibrations, because of their very low end-effector stiffness.This thesis proposes a novel approach for effective active damping of those vibrations.The dynamical model of a cable-driven parallel robot embedding reaction wheels is derived, lineraized around an equilibrium point and projected onto modal space, in which vibrations are decoupled.For each vibration mode, a control algorithm designed by poles placement adapted to the associated vibration natural frequency is applied for active vibration damping.Experiments conducted on a realistic simulation and two prototypes are presented to validate this approach

Повний текст джерелаCable-driven robot is an original variation of parallel robots. Replacing rigid bodies by cables provides new capabilities to these robots, and particularly large-size workspaces, since long cable lengths can be deployed. In the literature, cables are usually supposed to be inextensible and massless. If this modeling is valid for small robots with moderate payloads, this cable model is not accurate enough to be used for large dimension cable-driven robots. The work presented here focuses on the modeling of such large cable robots. First, from a set of traction tests applied to various cables, elastic models are proposed. Then, the well-know elastic catenary model is recalled, and its effects on the modeling of large dimension cable robots is shown. However, when using this cable model, solving the platform static equilibrium require the resolution of a non-linear coupled equation system. Assuming a low sagging of the cable, some simplifications can be made to this model. The resulting simplified hefty cable model is then presented and the new expression of the static equilibrium is shown to be close to the one obtained with the massless cable model. Thus, it allows us to determine the set of admissible mobile platform wrenches at a given pose. By comparing this set to the set of required wrenches for a specific task a cost function is finally defined and used in a design procedure dedicated to large dimension cable-driven robots

Повний текст джерелаThe main objective of this thesis is to propose new methods for the calibration of a large scale cable-driven robot. The principal method to improve the global behavior of a robot consists to identify the parameters of the model. For this, it is important to get redundant information by measuring the state of the robot in different configurations. However, the model used is a compromise between its ability to represent the actual behavior of the manipulator and the information available to fill in it. In the special case of the large scale cable-driven robots, mass and elasticity of the cables have a significant influence on the behavior of the robot but they are difficult to model. Indeed, the physical model of the cable is complex and requires knowledge of the tension inside it. Available sensors cannot provide this information with a sufficient accuracy to fill in a model of a realistic cable, we thus propose to use a simplified model. In order to provide an efficient calibration, it is necessary to fix the requirements to use this simplified model. Then, we have adapted and implemented some classical techniques for the calibration of parallel robots, but we also developed more innovative approaches. We propose a model for cable robots based on a representation of the uncertainties from modeling, measurements and parameters using intervals. By exploiting the interval analysis, we have developed various approaches to identify with certification the geometric parameters of the structure. We thus propose a new approach and associated algorithms to characterize and compute different kind of solutions for the calibration problem

Повний текст джерелаIn the past two decades the work of a growing portion of researchers in robotics focused on a particular group of machines, belonging to the family of parallel manipulators: the cable robots. Although these robots share several theoretical elements with the better known parallel robots, they still present completely (or partly) unsolved issues. In particular, the study of their kinematic, already a difficult subject for conventional parallel manipulators, is further complicated by the non-linear nature of cables, which can transmit forces only when they are taut. The work presented in this thesis therefore focuses on the study of the kinematics of these robots and on the development of numerical techniques able to address some of the problems related to it. Most of the work is focused on the development of an interval-analysis-based procedure for the solution of the direct geometric problem (DGP) of a generic cable manipulator. This technique, as well as allowing for a rapid solution of the problem, also guarantees the results obtained against rounding and elimination errors and can take into account any uncertainties in the model of the problem. The developed code has been tested with the help of a small manipulator whose realization is described in this dissertation together with its design and simulation phases

Повний текст джерелаIn this thesis, an active stabilizer is designed to be embedded on the platform of a Cable-Driven Parallel Robot (CDPR) and to damp vibrations affecting the platform by producing a wrench on it.First, a mechanical modeling of various active stabilization devices allows the choice of an appropriate solution for vibration damping. The selected solution consists of a stabilizer composed of rotating arms. Then, this model is used to optimize the stabilizer structure by looking at which arm arrangement maximizes the power delivered by the stabilizer to the CDPR mobile platform.A control strategy is then proposed for the system consisting of the CDPR mobile platform and the embedded active stabilizer. As this system consists of two parts operating at different time scales, the singular perturbation theory is used to prove the stability of the proposed control.Finally, simulation experiments make it possible to validate the use of an on-board active stabilizer to damp the vibrations of the mobile platform of a CDPR, and controlled with the control law proposed in this thesis

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis reports the first steps toward the development of a new family of telemanipulators: cable-driven pantographs (CDPs). We define CDPs as mechanisms designed to reproduce trajectories induced from a master (input) to a slave (output) with a chosen scale factor and using cables in order to transmit corresponding forces or moments. They can also be presented as the combination of conventional pantographs, devices where rigid links are used to transmit forces between the master and the slave, and cable-driven parallel mechanisms (CDPMs). Given that the purpose of this thesis is the design of CDPs which combine reliability, safety and a low manufacturing cost, we have chosen to develop tools that allow the design of purely mechanical CDPs, i.e., no electrical component is necessary to transmit forces between the master and the slave. Several applications can be considered for this new family of pantographs, e.g., the telemanipulation of objects inside environments that are sensitive to electromagnetic disturbances, or simply where electrical energy access is limited. The strict use of cables between the two main components of the pantograph leads to many advantages but also to some inherent drawbacks. The main disadvantage of CDPs is without any doubt the unilaterality of force transmission in the CDPM’s cables. It imposes a reflected cables distribution, i.e., cables must support the end effector in all directions, and a minimum level of tension in order to preserve the system geometry. In general, for a CDPM, the driving electrical motors are used to produce continuous torque (and power) to maintain the cable tensions. In this thesis, we propose a methodology which relies on springs in order to produce these tensions in a purely mechanical manner, leaving to the user the application of the additional forces, i.e., those forces needed to overcome friction, produce accelerations and balance external forces applied at the end effector. This conceptual idea is validated through the design of the prototype of the first planar three-cable two-degree-of-freedom (DoF) CDP. Then, with the objective of minimizing the energy expenditure required by the user, we also suggest to compute nonlinear springs behaviours that maintain the cable tensions to a minimum level, while approximating the static equilibrium of the mechanism over its workspace. The nonlinear springs are in fact embodied as four-bar mechanisms coupled with constanttorque springs. This methodology is illustrated by its application to a modified version of the three-cable two-DoF planar CDP. When designing any CDP (in particular for CDPs with tridimensional workspace), a second drawback must be taken into account. This drawback is the possible occurrence of mechanical interferences between the different cables used to constrain the pose of the end effector from its respective base (this applies to both the master and the slave effectors) when moving in translation, in rotation or both. Thence, in this thesis, we propose a methodology for determining, in a geometrical manner, the interference regions between a pair of cables and between a cable and an end-effector edge for a given orientation within its workspace. It is shown that, for a constant end-effector orientation, these interference regions are defined by plane and line segments belonging to the CDP workspace. Then, this technique allows to determine—exactly and rapidly—the interference regions for a given CDP, and thus provides a powerful tool for optimizing the geometry of this kind of mechanisms. This methodology can also be directly applied to the design of any tridimensional CDPMs. Finally, in order to generate a suitable geometry for a given application, the last part of this thesis details an algorithm to synthesize CDP or CDPM geometries based on three main criteria. The first criterion is based on the wrench-closure workspace (WCW) (which criterion is well known in the literature), whose volume should be maximized. The second and the third ones are based on the free-interference workspace, methodology developed in the previous part of the thesis, whose volumes should also be maximized. As an example, the geometric parameters of a seven-cable nine-edge six-DoF CDPM are optimized to illustrate the relevance of the technique. Then, a medical application is used as a second example, i.e., the dimensional synthesis of an eight-cable seventeen-edge six-DoF CDP intended to be used inside a standard cylindrical magnetic-resonance-imaging (MRI) system for performing simple image-guided biopsies.

Повний текст джерелаCable driven parallel robots are studied and used more every day, especially in the research community. One interesting application is their use as haptic interfaces. Their big workspace and relatively low inertia makes them great candidates for human scale interfaces. One application of haptic interfaces of this scale is in health and physical readaptation. Since those interfaces are able to render forces, they can be used to train or evaluate physical capabilities. Research presented in this thesis aims at furthering knowledge in this domain. Some more general advances needed to make cable driven parallel mechanisms suitable haptic interfaces are presented first and then more specific developments toward the creation of a prototype haptic interface combined with a visual feedback are presented. The thesis ends with preliminary studies on the developed prototype installed in a research facility on physical readaptation.

Повний текст джерелаIntroduction : Les nouvelles technologies qui permettent de capter et d’analyser les mouvements des utilisateurs ne cessent de se développer et représentent un potentiel intéressant dans le domaine de la santé. Grâce à l’essor de ces nouvelles technologies, des systèmes de réalité virtuelle (RV) clefs en main intègrent les services de réadaptation, et les études démontrent leur capacité à optimiser la rééducation motrice et l’évaluation des clients présentant des troubles du contrôle moteur. Le marché de la RV est ainsi en pleine expansion, et l’ajout d’informations haptiques permettant de modéliser les caractéristiques physiques des entités virtuelles représente un intérêt considérable pour améliorer l’écologie des environnements virtuels (EVs) et le transfert des apprentissages aux activités quotidiennes. Toutefois, l’effet de l’ajout de ces informations sur le comportement moteur des sujets demeure très peu connu. L’objectif principal de cette thèse était ainsi d’évaluer l’impact de l’ajout d’informations haptiques, par un mécanisme parallèle entrainé par câbles (robot à câbles), sur le contrôle moteur de sujets sains, lors de la réalisation de tâches complexes et fonctionnelles dans des EVs. Les deux hypothèses principales étaient que cet ajout améliore le contrôle du mouvement lors de tâche de manutention d’objet ayant des contraintes environnementales statiques, et modifie les stratégies locomotrices proactives en présence de contraintes dynamiques. Méthode : Le comportement moteur de participants sains a été analysé lors de la réalisation de deux tâches. En premier lieu, une tâche de manutention de caisse nécessitant la préhension et le déplacement d’une caisse à partir d’une posture debout a été étudiée. Celle-ci a été réalisée dans un environnement réel et dans des EVs, en absence et en présence d’informations haptiques, relatives aux contraintes physiques de l’étagère et de la caisse manipulée, fournies grâce à un robot à câbles (Chapitre 3, N=12). En second lieu, une tâche nécessitant l’évitement d’avatars au cours de la marche sur un tapis roulant a été réalisée en présence et en absence de risque de contact physique avec les avatars, délivré par un robot à câbles (Chapitre 4, N=10). Les EVs étaient vus au travers d’un visiocasque. Résultats : La première étude a démontré une amélioration des paramètres spatiaux du mouvement réalisé dans l’EV en présente d’informations haptiques, au cours des différentes phases de la tâche de manutention (préhension, montée et descente de la caisse). L’organisation spatiale du mouvement était ainsi plus similaire à ce qui était observé dans un environnement réel, avec un meilleur respect des contraintes environnementales (éloignement plus important de la caisse avec l’étagère, trajectoire plus longue). De plus, le contrôle du mouvement était influencé par la demande de précision requise pour ne pas toucher les étagères en présence d’informations haptiques uniquement. La deuxième étude a démontré la mise en place de stratégies motrices plus précautionneuses pour éviter les avatars lors de l’ajout d’informations haptiques. Les participants tendaient à anticiper plus précocement l’évitement des avatars. Ils maintenaient une distance minimale plus importante avec les avatars et conservaient un espace péripersonnel plus large, indépendamment de l’angle d’approche de l’avatar. Conclusion : L’ajout d’informations haptiques dans les EVs impacte les stratégies motrices proactives des participants sains aussi bien lors de la tâche de manutention de caisse que de locomotion avec évitement d’avatars. Les résultats suggèrent que l’ajout d’informations haptiques favorise la prise en compte des entités virtuelles lors de la planification mouvement. Ces informations haptiques imposent en effet des restrictions plus réalistes dans les possibilités d’actions fournies par les EVs, et modifient probablement l’évaluation des conséquences que représente le contact avec les entités virtuelles. Il serait pertinent de poursuivre l’étude de l’influence de ces informations afin de proposer à des clients ayant des déficiences motrices des environnements encore plus écologiques, qui favorisent l’évaluation et la prise en compte des risques implicites que représentent les entités environnementales.
Introduction: New technologies that capture and analyze user movement are constantly developing and represent a great potential in healthcare. Thanks to the recent technological advances, turnkey virtual reality (VR) systems are progressively integrated into the rehabilitation setting, and studies have demonstrated their ability to optimise sensorimotor rehabilitation and clinical assessment of people with motor control disorders. The market for VR is growing and adding haptic feedback that provides physical characteristics to virtual entities represents a great potential to improve the ecological validity of virtual environments (VE) and to the transfer of learning to daily tasks. However, the impact that adding haptic feedback has on motor behavior remains poorly understood. The main objective of this thesis was to assess the impact of adding haptic feedback, using a novel cable-driven parallel robot, on the motor control of healthy participants during complex, functional tasks in VEs. The two mains hypotheses were that haptic feedback improves motor control during a handling task with static environmental constraints and modifies proactive locomotor strategies in the presence of dynamic constraints. Method: The motor behavior of healthy participants was analysed during two tasks. First, a manual handling task was studied during which participants grasped and moved a crate while standing. This task was realised in a real environment and in VEs with the absence and the presence of haptic information. The latter simulated the physical constraints of the shelf and the crate to be manipulated using a cable-driven robot (Chapter 3, N=12). Second, avatar avoidance tasks were realised when participants walked on a self-paced treadmill in the absence and then in the presence of a risk of physical contact with avatars. Contact was simulated by a cable-driven robot (Chapter 4, N=10). VEs were viewed through a head mounted display for all tasks. Results: The first study showed that adding haptic feedback to the VE improved spatial parameters of movement realised in a VE during all phases of movement (reaching, ascent and descent phases). The spatial organisation of movement was closer to those observed in a physical environment, and better respected environmental constraints (higher clearances from the shelf and longer trajectories). Moreover, movement control was influenced by task precision required to avoid any contact with the shelf in the presence of haptic feedback only. The second study demonstrated that when avoiding avatars in VR, more cautious behavior was measured in the presence of potential physical contact. Participants tended to start their avoidance strategy earlier and increased minimum clearance along with a larger personal space regardless of the avatar’s approach angle. Conclusion: Adding haptic feedback in VEs impacts the proactive motor strategies of healthy participants during a manual handling task as well as a locomotor task involving the avoidance of avatars. These results suggest that adding haptic feedback enhances one’s consideration of virtual entities during movement planning. Haptic information imposes more realistic restrictions on the actions afforded by EVs, and likely modifies the perceived consequences of potential contact with virtual entities. It will be important to continue to study the impact of haptic feedback within VEs to provide even more ecological environments to people with motor deficits in order to improve assessment and the consideration of implicit risks posed by the environment.

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis contributes to the analysis of the static and dynamic stiffness of cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs) aiming to improve the static positioning accuracy and the trajectory tracking accuracy. The proposed static and dynamic cable modeling considers the effect of cable weight on the cable profile and the effect of cable mass on the cable dynamics. Based on the static cable model, the static pose error of the end-effector is defined and the variation of the end-effector pose error with the external load is used to evaluate the static stiffness of CDPRs. A new dynamic model of CDPRs is proposed with considering the coupling of the cable dynamics and the end-effector vibrations. Experimental validations are carried out on CDPR prototypes. Static experiments, modal experiments, free vibration experiments and trajectory experiments are performed. The proposed static and dynamic models are verified. Cable dynamics, robot dynamics and their coupling are discussed. Results show the relevance of the proposed models on improving the performances of CDPRs in terms of design and control. Besides stiffness analysis, the proposed models are applied on the force distribution of redundant actuated CDPRs. A new method on the calculation of the cable forces is proposed, where the determination of the lower-boundary of the cable forces is presented. The consideration of the pose-dependence of the lower force boundary can minimize the cable forces and improve the energy efficiency of CDPRs
Elghazaly, Gamal. "Hybrid cable thruster-actuated underwater vehicle manipulator system : modeling, analysis and control." Thesis, Montpellier, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017MONTS067.
Повний текст джерелаThe offshore industry for oil and gas applications is the main user of underwater robots, particularly, remotely operated vehicles (ROVs). Inspection, construction and maintenance of different subsea structures are among the applications of ROVs in this industry. The capability to keep a steady positioning as well as to lift and deploy heavy payloads are both essential for most of these applications. However, these capabilities are often limited by the available on-board vehicle propulsion power. In this context, this thesis introduces the novel concept of Hybrid Cable-Thruster (HCT)-actuated Underwater Vehicle-Manipulator Systems (UVMS) which aims to leverage the heavy payload lifting capabilities of cables as a supplementary actuation for ROVs. These cables are attached to the vehicle in a setting similar to Cable-Driven Parallel Robots (CDPR). Several issues are raised by the hybrid vehicle actuation system of thrusters and cables. The thesis aims at studying the impact of the supplementary cable actuation on the capabilities of the system. The thesis also investigate how to minimize the forces exerted by thrusters. These two objectives are the main contributions of the thesis. Kinematic, actuation and dynamic modeling of HCT-actuated UVMSs are first presented. The system is characterized not only by kinematic redundancy with respect to its end-effector, but also by actuation redundancy of the vehicle. Evaluation of forces capabilities with these redundancies is not straightforward and a method is presented to deal with such an issue. The impact of the supplementary cable actuation is validated through a comparative study to evaluate the force capabilities of an HCT-actuated UVMS with respect to its conventional UVMS counterpart. Evaluation of these capabilities is based on the determination of the available forces, taking into account the limits on actuation forces. A new method is proposed to determine the available force set. This method is based on the orthogonal projection of polytopes. Moreover, its computational cost is analyzed and compared with a standard method. Finally, a novel force resolution methodology is introduced. It assigns a higher priority to the cable actuation subsystem, so that the forces exerted by thrusters are minimized. Case studies are presented to illustrate the methodologies presented in this thesis

In the first part of this work, a simulation method has been developed to evaluate transient currents that will be induced in coaxial cables. The relevance of this model is then discussed thanks to comparisons with experimental results. In a second part, the possibility to simulate the propagation of the EMP, inside and outside such a big structure as a target chamber, using the FDTD method is evaluated. The use of a classic FDTD method is impossible for this kind of simulation because of the huge computer resources needs. It is the reason why a 3D space-time subgridding method for FDTD has been developed and some massively parallel FDTD calculations have also been performed
