Developing Plans for Robotic Excavators
We would like a robot excavator that is able to excavate a volume of soil according to specification. To this end we have developed a general method that can be used to provide prescriptions...
Generalized Object Control and Assembly for Space Robots
This paper presents a Generalized Object Control framework which subsumes Unified Motion/Force Control and Object Impedance Control. Under this framework new forms of assembly primitives...
A Novel Gravity Compensation System for Space Robots
Realistic experimental investigation of the behavior of space robots requires simulation on earth of the micro-gravity environment existing in space. This is particularly true due to the...
On the Dynamics and Control of Flexible Orbiting Systems: An Approach with Application
A relatively general formulation for studying the dynamics and control of an arbitrary spacecraft, with interconnected flexible, deployable and articulating structural members, is reviewed...
Improving Dynamic Finite Element Models Using Test Data
A structural optimization based method was developed to improve the finite element model to achieve good agreement with the test results. The modal displacements at critical locations...
Dynamic Analysis of a High Speed Transport Model by Using a Piecewise Continuous Timoshenko Beam Model
Conventional treatment of structural dynamic analysis and control is based on the finite element structural model. But such a treatment uses a very large number of elements which is usually...
Modal Interaction in the Response of Laminates
A higher-order shear-deformation theory is used to analyze the interaction of two modes in the response of thick laminated rectangular plates to transverse harmonic loads. The case of...
Dynamics of Laminated Plates with Layer Waviness
Composite structures usually exhibit a high strength-to-weight ratio as compared to traditional structural materials. This makes them attractive solutions in many aerospace applications....
Interactions Between the Space Station Freedom Attitude Control System and Space Shuttle Remote Manipulator Controller During On-Orbit Assembly Operations
This paper presents the results of dynamics and control interaction analyses involving the Space Shuttle Orbiter, the Shuttle Remote Manipulator System (SRMS), and the Space Station Freedom...
The Effect of Mobile Transporter Motion on the Space Station Attitude Control System
The effect of Mobile Transport (MT) motion on Space Station stability and the performance of the Attitude Control System (ACS) using Control Momentum Gyros (CMGs) is assessed. Analysis...
