Trajectory tracking control of parallel manipulators is aimed in the presence of flexibility at the joint drives. Joint structural damping is also considered in the dynamic model. The system is first converted into an open-tree structure by disconnecting a sufficient number of unactuated joints. The closed loops are then expressed by constraint equations. It is shown that, in a parallel robot with flexible joint drives, the acceleration level inverse dynamics equations are singular because the control torques do not have an instantaneous effect on the end-effector accelerations due to the elastic media. Eliminating the Lagrange multipliers and the intermediate variables, a fourth-order input-output relation is obtained between the actuator torques and the end-effector position variables. The proposed control law decouples and linearizes the system and achieves asymptotic stability by feedback of positions and velocities of the actuated joints and rotors. As a case study, a three degree of freedom, two legged planar parallel manipulator is simulated to illustrate the performance of the method. The end-effector desired trajectory is chosen such that the kinematic and drive singular positions are avoided.

NONLINEAR DYNAMIC-MODEL AND ITS SOLUTION FOR A HIGH-SPEED CAM MECHANISM WITH COULOMB-FRICTION Ünlüsoy, Yavuz Samim; Tümer, Sami Turgut (Elsevier BV, 1994-01-20) The dynamic behavior of overhead cam mechanisms, commonly used in automotive applications, is strongly influenced by the Coulomb friction at the rocker arm pivot. In this study, a non-linear one-degree-of-freedom model of such a mechanism including Coulomb friction has been developed. An exact quasi-linear solution to the equations representing the non-linear behavior has been obtained. The effects of Coulomb friction at different cam speeds are investigated using typical parameter values. A critical examin...
Error analysis and feasibility study of dynamic stiffness matrix-based damping matrix identification Özgen, Gökhan Osman (Elsevier BV, 2009-02-06) Developing a method to formulate a damping matrix that represents the actual spatial distribution and mechanism of damping of the dynamic system has been an elusive goal. The dynamic stiffness matrix (DSM)-based damping identification method proposed by Lee and Kim is attractive and promising because it identifies the damping matrix from the measured DSM without relying on any unfounded assumptions. However, in ensuing works it was found that damping matrices identified from the method had unexpected forms ...
Direct identification and expansion of damping matrix for experimental-analytical hybrid modeling Özgen, Gökhan Osman (Elsevier BV, 2007-11-20) The theory of direct experimental identification of damping matrix based on the dynamic stiffness matrix (DSM) method is further developed in this work. Based on the relationship between the DSMs of the smaller experimental model and larger analytical model, the mathematical relationship between the damping matrices of the two models is established. Examining the relationship, two methods are developed that can be used to expand the experimental damping matrix to the size of the analytical model. Validity o...
Tipping loads of mobile cranes with flexible booms Kilicaslan, S; Balkan, Raif Tuna; Ider, SK (Elsevier BV, 1999-06-17) In this study the characteristics of a mobile crane are obtained by using a flexible multibody dynamics approach, for the determination of safe loads to prevent tipping of a mobile crane. Only the boom of the crane is assumed to be flexible since it is the only element that has considerable deflections in applications. The coupled rigid and elastic motions of the crane are formulated and software is developed in order to carry out the dynamic analysis. The variation of piston force with respect to boom angu...
Fluid-structure interactions with both structural and fluid nonlinearities Bendiksen, O. O.; Seber, G. (Elsevier BV, 2008-08-19) In this study, we consider a class of nonlinear aeroelastic stability problems, where geometric nonlinearities arising from large deflections and rotations in the structure interact with aerodynamic nonlinearities caused by moving shocks. Examples include transonic panel flutter and flutter of transonic wings of high aspect ratio, where the presence of both structural and aerodynamic nonlinearities can have a dramatic qualitative as well as quantitative effect on the flutter behavior. Both cases represent i...
