Beschreibung:
Computer simulations of robotic mechanisms have traditionally solved the dynamic equations of motion for an N degree of freedom manipulator by formulating an N dimensional matrix equation combining the accelerations and torques (forces) for all joints. The use of an alternative formulation that is strictly recursive is described. The dynamic solution proceeds on a joint by joint basis, so it is possible to perform inverse dynamics at arbitrary joints. The dynamic formulation is generalized with respect to both rotational and translational joints, and it is also directly extendable to branched manipulator chains. A hardware substitution test is described in which a servo drive motor was integrated with a simulated manipulator arm. The form of the dynamic equation permits calculation of acceleration given torque or vice versa. Computing torque as a function of acceleration is required for the hybrid software/hardware simulation test described. For this test, a joint servo motor is controlled in conjunction with the simulation, and the dynamic torque on the servo motor is provided by a load motor on a common driveshaft.
