The general form of mathematical model of cable winding/unwinding system is defined for several different constructions. The novelty of this mathematical model is detection and mathematical formulation of influence of new dynamic variables: winding/unwinding radius and cable length on dynamic response of cable winding/unwinding system. The validity of the obtained theoretical contribution has been illustrated through one case study by using a newly developed software package CWUSOFT which was generated in MATLAB. Theoretical and simulation results are confirmed through the experimental analysis of one novel construction of the cable winding/unwinding system.
In this paper a new algorithm for path tracking of robotic mechanism is presented. Through the history of robotic mechanisms, path tracking was considered one of the hardest tasks, due to many different problems. Usually, robotic mechanism is modeled as a rigid mechanism and that is simplified assumption. Elasticity of the mechanism needs to be considered and that represents one of the biggest problems. The example of the robotic mechanism examined in this paper has 6 DOF. Complexity of this mechanism comes from its elasticity and controlling it with two motors is a hard task. Presented method is based on controlling a mechanism with elastic parts to track desired path by following rotations of two motors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
