Dynamic Analysis of a Humanoid Robot Using F.E.M Analysis Program

F.E.M 해석 프로그램을 이용한 휴머노이드 로봇의 동역학 해석

This paper presents the dynamic analysis of a humanoid robot using Nastran that is one of FEM analysis program. Generally, computer program based on the Lagrange-Euler method or Newton-Euler method was used for dynamic analysis of a robot. The Lagrange-Euler method requires much calculation performance and it is also hard to apply to complex structure, and the Newton-Euler method limits accurate modeling and calculation for closed structure like a humanoid robot. In this paper, mechanical and structural data are obtained from the Nastran. It is possible for Nastran to make model similar to real system and can apply a physical properties and laws to model. So, accurate simulation is possible. From this result, accurate data is gained by Nastran. Furthermore, this method is shown to be a useful method that guarantees accuracy for trajectory planning.
