- 计算高效,适用于非均匀结构与复杂布缆路径的实时系统。
受章鱼触手和象鼻启发的连续体机器人兼具灵活性与内在柔顺性,适用于非结构化和狭小环境。然而其连续可变形结构给运动规划与控制带来挑战,亟需准确且轻量的建模方法。本文提出轻量级驱动空间能量建模(LASEM)框架,将驱动势能直接定义于驱动空间。该框架基于哈密顿原理,结合几何非线性梁与杆理论,推导出解析式正向模型,无需显式建模缆绳-主干接触。支持力与位移输入,统一了运动学与静力学表述。在忽略摩擦条件下,可推广至非均匀几何、任意缆绳路径、分布载荷及轴向伸缩情形,同时保持实时计算效率。数值仿真验证其精度,并设计半解析迭代算法求解逆运动学。针对实际机器人离散化问题,进一步将泛函极小化转化为数值优化,自然融入缆绳势能而无需显式接触建模。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Continuum robots, inspired by octopus arms and elephant trunks, combine dexterity with intrinsic compliance, making them well suited for unstructured and confined environments. Yet their continuously deformable morphology poses challenges for motion planning and control, calling for accurate but lightweight models. We propose the Lightweight Actuation Space Energy Modeling (LASEM) framework for cable driven continuum robots, which formulates actuation potential energy directly in actuation space. LASEM yields an analytical forward model derived from geometrically nonlinear beam and rod theories via Hamilton's principle, while avoiding explicit modeling of cable backbone contact. It accepts both force and displacement inputs, thereby unifying kinematic and static formulations. Assuming the friction is neglected, the framework generalizes to nonuniform geometries, arbitrary cable routings, distributed loading and axial extensibility, while remaining computationally efficient for real-time use. Numerical simulations validate its accuracy, and a semi-analytical iterative scheme is developed for inverse kinematics. To address discretization in practical robots, LASEM further reformulates the functional minimization as a numerical optimization, which also naturally incorporates cable potential energy without explicit contact modeling.
