In this paper, the control algorithm fur an autonomous vehicle is studied and applied to an actual 2 wheel-driven vehicle system. In order to control a nonholonomic system, the kinematic model for an autonomous vehicle is constructed by relative velocity relationship about the virtual point at distance from the vehicle's frame. And the optimal controller that based on the kinematic model is operated on purpose to track a reference vehicle's path. The actual system is designed with named 'HYAVI' and the system controller is applied. Because all the results of simulation don't satisfy the driving conditions of HYAVI, a reformed control algorithm that satisfies an actual autonomous vehicle is applied at HYAVI. At the results of actual experiments, the path tracking works very well by the reformed control algorithm. An autonomous vehicle that applied this control algorithm can be easily used for a path generation algorithm.

This paper describes a tracking control for the mobile robot based on fuzzy systems. Since the mobile robot has the nonholonomic constraints, these constraints should be considered to design a tracking controller for the mobile robot. One of the well-known tracking controllers for the mobile robot is the back-stepping controller. The conventional back-stepping controller includes the dynamics and kinematics of the mobile robot. The conventional back-stepping controller is affected by the derived velocity reference by a kinematic controller. To improve the performance of the conventional back-stepping controller, this paper uses the fuzzy systems known as the nonlinear controller. The new velocity reference for the back-stepping controller is derived through the fuzzy inference. Fuzzy rules are selected for gains of the kinematic controller. The produced velocity reference has properly considered the varying reference trajectories. Simulation results show that the proposed controller is more robust than the conventional back-stepping controller.

뱀형 로봇은 자유도보다 액추에이터의 수가 적은 논홀로믹 구속조건(nonholonomic constraint)을 가지며, 단순한 신체구조 이지만 초-여유자유도 구속조건(hyper-redundant constraint)을 이용해서 기밀한 운동과 다양한 기능을 만들어내는 특징을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 6개의 관절로 각 링크가 2차원 상에서 직렬로 연결된 뱀형 로봇의 기구설계 및 기구학과 동력학을 바탕으로 설계된 기구에 대해 해석하여 운동방정식을 유도하여 추진원리와 운동원리에 관하여 알아본다. 기본적인 운동 메커니즘을 해석하여 구현한 알고리즘을 제작한 로봇에 적용하여 추진 원리와 운동원리를 검증한다. 실험용 로봇은 링크 중앙에 법선 방향으로 마찰력이 발생할 수 있도록 수동바퀴를 가지고 있으며, PC와 RF(Radio Frequency)로 직렬통신을 하며 PC에서의 운동 명령의 조작에 의해 전진, 후진, 좌/우 방향으로 회전을 할 수 있도록 운동 알고리즘을 적용할 수 있도록 제작되었다. 특징으로는 일반적으로 토크를 입력으로 하지 않고 각도를 입력으로 하여 관절을 제어하고 있다는 점이 있으며, 운동방정식 또한 이에 대한 관계를 바탕으로 유도한 것이다.

The motion of animals and gymnasts in the air as well as free flying space robots without thrusters are subjected to nonholonomic constraints generated by the law of conservation of angular momentum. The purpose of this paper is to derive analytical posture control laws for free flying objects in the air. We propose the bang-bang control method for trajectory planning of a 3 link mechanical system with initial angular momentum. This technique is used to reduce the DOF (degrees of freedom) at first switching phase and to determine the control inputs to steer the reduced order system to the desired position. Computer simulations for motion planning of an athlete approximated by 3 link, namely platform diving, are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

This paper proposes a new sliding-surface-based tracking control system for nonholonomic mobile robots with disturbance. To design a robust controller, we consider the kinematic model and the dynamic model of mobile robots with disturbance. We also propose a new sliding surface to solve the problem of previous study. That is, since the new sliding surface is composed of differentiable functions unlike the previous study, we can obtain the control law for arbitrary trajectories without any constraints. From the Lyapunov stability theory, we prove that the position tracking errors and the heading direction error converge to zero. Finally, we perform the computer simulations to demonstrate the performance of the proposed control system.

This paper proposes tracking control method using pseudo-backstepping control for wheeled mobile robots with nonholonomic constraints. First, the pseudo commands for forward linear velocity and angular velocity are chosen based on the kinematics. Then, the actual torque control inputs are designed to make the actual forward linear velocity and angular velocity follow the pseudo commands. Both semi-global practical posture(position and heading direction angle) stabilization and trajectory tracking are achieved for reference trajectories such as straight line and sinusoidal curve. The stability and performance analysed and numerical simulations are performed to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

This paper presents a method that integrates the geometric path tracking and the obstacle avoidance for nonholonomic mobile robot. The mobile robot follows the path by moving through the turning radius given from the pure pursuit method which is the one of the geometric path tracking methods. And the obstacle generates the obstacle potential, from this potential, the virtual force is obtained. Therefore, the turning radius for avoiding the obstacle is calculated by proportional to the virtual force. By integrating the turning radius for avoiding the obstacle and the turning radius for following the path, the mobile robot follows the path and avoids the obstacle simultaneously. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through the real experiments for path tracking only, static obstacle avoidance, dynamic obstacle avoidance.

본 논문은 구속된 기계 시스템의 운동 제어 설계를 위한 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 구속된 기계 시스템의 운동 제어에는 지금까지 주로 사용되어온 Lagrange의 운동 방정식에 의한 모델링 보다 Udwadia와 Kalaba에 의해 제안된 운동 방정식에 의한 모델링이 더욱 적합함을 보였으며 이는 Holonomic 및 Nonholonomic 구속 조건을 비롯한 대부분의 구속 조건이 포함된다. 문헌에 잘 알려진 두 시스템을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 비교 함으로써 본 논문에 제안된 방법이 보다 우수한 결과를 보여줌을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 지금까지 불가능 하였던 비선형 일반 속도(gereralized velocity)를 포함한 구속 조건도 용이하게 제어됨을 보임으로써 광범위한 구속된 기계 시스템의 제어 문제를 통일된 방법으로 접근 할 수 있음을 제시하였다.

This paper deals with the problem of motion planning for a unicycle-like robot. We present a simple local planner for unicycle model, based on an approximation of the desired configuration generated by local holonomic planner that ignores motion constraints. To guarantee a collision avoidance, we propose an inequality constraint, based on the motion analysis with the constant control input and time interval. Consequently, we formulate our problem as the constrained optimization problem and a feedback scheme based on local sensor information is established by simply solving this problem. Through simulations, we confirm the validity and effectiveness of our algorithm.

In this paper, an adaptive sliding-mode formation control and collision avoidance are proposed for electrically driven nonholonomic mobile robots with model uncertainties and external disturbances. A sliding surface based on the leader-follower approach is developed to achieve the desired formation in the presence of model uncertainties and disturbances. Moreover, by using the collision avoidance function, the mobile robots can avoid the obstacles successfully. Finally, simulations illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control system.
