本研究致力于设计扑翼无人机的仿鸟降落动作与控制策略。通过分析机器人飞行动力学、反馈回路与环境约束之间的动态相互作用,借鉴鸟类飞行中的精妙控制机制,提出一种最优降落动作及对应控制器,以实现稳定着陆。该动作包含减速与快速俯仰上抬(垂直转弯),由在运动学与动力学约束下最小化着陆速度的优化问题解析求解得到。控制器对扑动频率与尾翼对称偏转进行非线性自适应调节,确保降落过程鲁棒稳定。该设计在一定程度上融合了控制论中的稳态调节原理,提升机器人应对突发扰动的能力,并维持降落姿态稳定。验证表明,闭环下降与转向动作与文献中真实鸟类的降落轨迹高度一致。研究成果为未来更逼真模仿鸟类降落技能的原型机开发奠定了理论基础。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
This research endeavors to design the perching maneuver and control in ornithopter robots. By analyzing the dynamic interplay between the robot's flight dynamics, feedback loops, and the environmental constraints, we aim to advance our understanding of the perching maneuver, drawing parallels to biological systems. Inspired by the elegant control strategies observed in avian flight, we develop an optimal maneuver and a corresponding controller to achieve stable perching. The maneuver consists of a deceleration and a rapid pitch-up (vertical turn), which arises from analytically solving the optimization problem of minimal velocity at perch, subject to kinematic and dynamic constraints. The controller for the flapping frequency and tail symmetric deflection is nonlinear and adaptive, ensuring robustly stable perching. Indeed, such adaptive behavior in a sense incorporates homeostatic principles of cybernetics into the control system, enhancing the robot's ability to adapt to unexpected disturbances and maintain a stable posture during the perching maneuver. The resulting autonomous perching maneuvers -- closed-loop descent and turn -- , have been verified and validated, demonstrating excellent agreement with real bird perching trajectories reported in the literature. These findings lay the theoretical groundwork for the development of future prototypes that better imitate the skillful perching maneuvers of birds.
