This paper suggests the new type of a joint torque sensor which is attached at each joint of a manipulator for making compliance. Previous six axis force/torque sensors are high cost and installed end-effector of the manipulator. However, torque on links of previous an end-effector cannot be measured. We design a joint torque sensor that can be fully integrated with an actuator in order to measure applying torque of the manipulator. The sensor system is designed through the structural analysis. The proposed joint torque sensors are installed to the 6 DOF manipulator of a mobile robot for hazardous works and we implemented experiments of measuring applied torque to the manipulator. By the experiment, we proved that the proposed low-cost joint torque sensor gives acceptable performance when we control a manipulator.

This paper presents the position-based force control application of a mobile manipulator. The mobile manipulator consists of two six DOF manipulators and a mobile robot. Kinematics of the robot is analyzed and simulated to validate the analysis. A position-based force control technique is applied to the robot by adding an outer loop to interact with the environment. Experimental studies of force control applications of robot arm and interaction with a human operator are conducted. Experimental results show that the robot arm is well regulated to follow the desired force.

This introduces a improved method of the forward kinematics analysis, which finds the 6DOF motions and velocities from the given six cylinder lengths in the Steward platform. The numerical method(Newton Raphson Mehotd)of the forward kinematics analysises has the disadvantage of the long calculated time. To overcome this, we propose the competitive method that determine a proper initial value. Through the competitive method, we can select a proper initial value so that the calculate time is reduced. therefore we can give the property of the real time process to the forward kinematics analysis. We show the result comparing between general Newton-Raphson method and proposed one. From the result we verify the performance of the proposed method.

This paper presents inverse kinematic and dynamic analyses of HexaSlide type six degree-of-freedom parallel manipulators. The HexaSlide type parallel manipulators (HSM) can be characterized as an architecture with constant link lengths that are attached to moving sliders on the ground and to a mobile platform. In the inverse kinematic analyses, the slider and link motion (position, velocity, and acceleration) is computed given the desired mobile platform motion. Based on the inverse kinematic analysis, in order to compute the required actuator forces given the desired platform motion, inverse dynamic equations of motion of a parallel manipulator is derived by the Newton-Euler approach. In this derivation, the joint friction as well as all link inertia are included. Relative importance of the link inertia and joint frictions on the computed torque is investigated by computer simulations. It is expected that the inverse kinematic and dynamic equations can be used in the computed torque control and model-based adaptive control strategies.

The inverse kinematics problem of Stewart platform is straightforward, but no closed form solution of the forward kinematic problem has been presented. Since we need the real-time forward kinematic solution in MIMO control and the motion monitoring of the platform, it is important to acquire the 6 DOF displacements of the platform from measured lengths of six cylinders in small sampling period. Newton-Raphson method a simple algorithm and good convergence, but it takes too long calculation time. So we reduce 6 nonlinear kinematic equations to 3 polynomials using Nairs method and 3 polynomials to 2 polynomials. Then Newton-Raphson method is used to solve 3 polynomials and 2 polynomials respectively. We investigate operation counts and performance of three methods which come from the equation reduction and Newton-Raphson method, and choose the best method.

In this paper, we introduce a modified six-degrees-of-freedom parallel-link manipulator, which will be applied to the human vibration experiments. We analyze the inverse kinematics and workspace of this manipulator and comprehend the characteristics of kinematics analyzed. Additionally, solutions of forward kinematics are obtained through the iterative Newton-Raphson method known as one of the most used numerical analysis. Finally, dynamic equation of the manipulator is derived in closed form through the Newton-Euler approach, which will be used for the development of control software.

This paper presents an overview of automated robotic system for skull drilling, which is performed to access for some neurosurgical interventions, such as brain tumor resection. Currently surgeons use automatic-releasing cranial perforators. The drilling procedure must be performed very carefully to avoid penetration of brain nerve structures; however failure cases are reported. The presented prototype system utilizes both preoperative and intraoperative information. Preoperative CT image is used for robot path planning. A NeuroMate robot with a six-DOF force sensor at the end effector is used for intraoperative operation. Intraoperative cutting force from the force sensor is the key information to revise an initial registration and preoperative path plans. Some possibilities are verified by path simulation but cadaver experiments are required for validation of this prototype.

This research develops a robot as the device which constructs underwater harbour. This construction is to build a breakwater, which is dangerous and difficult. The hydraulic parallel mechanism-typed robot is developed to mechanize the construction by operating of a stoneworker (or diver) through a joystick. The six-dof robot is able to carry 2-3 tons' heavy stone and put it on the surface of breakwater. This paper presents the mechanical design of a miniature robot, its control and application for the breakwater construction.

The modified maximum likelihood estimation method is used to estimate the nondimensional aerodynamic derivatives of a single turbo-prop aircraft at a specified flight condition for the best deduction of the dynamic characteristics. In wind axes the six degree of freedom equations are algebraically linearized so that the linear state equation contains aerodynamic derivatives in a state-space form and is used in the maximum likelihood method. The simulated data added with the measurement noise is used as a flight test data which is necessary to the estimation of nondimensional aerodynamic derivatives. It is obtained by implementing the 6-DOF nonlinear flight simulation. In the flight simulation, the effects of several control input types, control deflection amplitudes, and the turbulence intensities on the statistical convergence criteria are also examined and quantitative analysis of the results is discussed.

One of the challenging problems with bicycle simulators is to deal with the inherent unstable bicycle dynamics that is coupled with rider's motion. For the bicycle dynamics calculation and the real time simulation, it is necessary to identify the control inputs from the rider as well as the virtual environments. The six control forces of the Stewart platform-based motion system are used for estimation of the rider's action force, which is one of the important control inputs, but of which the direct measurement is impractical. For the effective estimation of the rider's action force, the dynamics model of the motion system is derived incorporated with both analytical and experimental methods and the sliding mode controller with perturbation estimation is developed.
