    Hybrid Force and Motion Control of a Three-Dimensional Flexible Robot Considering Measurement Noises
    (Mdpi, 2022) Kilicaslan, Sinan; Ozgoren, Mustafa Kemal; Ider, Sitki Kemal
    This work addresses the end-effector trajectory-tracking force and motion control of a three-dimensional three-link robot considering measurement noises. The last two links of the manipulator are considered as structurally flexible. An absolute coordinate approach is used while obtaining the dynamic equations to avoid complex dynamic equations. In this approach, each link is modeled as if there is no connection between the links. Then, joint connections are expressed as constraint equations. After that, these constraint equations are used in dynamic equations to decrease the number of equations. Then, the resulting dynamic equations are transformed into a form which is suitable for controller design. Furthermore, the dynamic equations are divided as pseudostatic equilibrium and deviation equations. The control torques resulting from the pseudostatic equilibrium and the elastic deflections are obtained easily as the solution of algebraic equations. On the other hand, the control torques corresponding to the deviations are obtained without any linearization. Encoders, strain gauges, position sensors and force and moment sensors are required for measurements. Low pass filters are considered for the sensors. For the crossover frequencies of the sensors, low and high values are chosen to observe the filtering effect on the robot output.

    On the Stability of Inverse Dynamics Control of Flexible-Joint Parallel Manipulators in the Presence of Modeling Error and Disturbances
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2019) Korkmaz, Ozan; Denizli, Mustafa Semih; Ider, Sitki Kemal
    Inverse dynamics control is considered for flexible-joint parallel manipulators in order to obtain a good trajectory tracking performance in the case of modeling error and disturbances. It is known that, in the absence of modeling error and disturbance, inverse dynamics control leads to linear fourth-order error dynamics, which is asymptotically stable if the feedback gains are chosen to make the real part of the eigenvalues of the system negative. However, when there are modeling errors and disturbances, a linear time-varying error dynamics is obtained whose stability is not assured only by keeping the real parts of the frozen-time eigenvalues of the system negative. In this paper, the stability of such systems is investigated and it is proved that the linear time-varying system can be rendered stable by selecting the feedback gains such that the variation of the system becomes sufficiently slow. To illustrate the performance of the control method, deployment motion of a 3-(R) under bar PR planar parallel manipulator subject to impact is simulated. For the impact model, the impulse-momentum and the coefficient of restitution equations for the system are derived.

    Parametric Analysis of an Anti-Whiplash System Composed of a Seat Suspension Arrangement
    (Springer Heidelberg, 2015) Ider, Sitki Kemal; Gokler, Mustafa Ilhan; Ozdemir, Mustafa
    Neck injuries frequently seen in low-speed rear-end collisions are referred to as whiplash injuries. Most of the proposed anti-whiplash systems in the literature rely on reducing the backset. A relatively new and promising alternative concept is a slideable seat. This study aimed to parametrically analyze an anti-whiplash vehicle seat that can slide backward against a horizontal suspension arrangement composed of a spring and a damper in response to a rear-end collision, and to investigate the effects of the suspension parameters on the injury risk. A simplified model of a slideable vehicle seat is developed, and simulations are conducted in LS-DYNA (R) environment using this slideable seat model and the commercially available finite element model of the BioRID II dummy. The maximum value of the Neck Injury Criterion (NICmax) is used as the measure of the injury risk. As a result, a strong linear inverse correlation is observed between NICmax and the maximum seat sliding distance, while the stiffness and damping coefficients of the suspension are varied. This result is also verified by obtaining the same NICmax value for the same maximum seat sliding distance (although the stiffness and damping coefficients are different). It is also shown that, for a given backset value as large as 60 mm, a slideable seat with the suspension parameters selected to yield a reasonable maximum seat sliding distance such as 100 mm significantly improves NICmax compared to a standard seat. As the maximum seat sliding distance is increased, the injury risk becomes smaller.

    Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Comparability of Whiplash Sled Test Results
    (Springer Heidelberg, 2016) Ider, Sitki Kemal; Gokler, Mustafa Ilhan; Ozdemir, Mustafa
    Whiplash-associated neck injuries represent an important health and socioeconomic problem attracting more and more attention of the vehicle safety community. Sled tests are conducted for the dynamic whiplash assessment of seats. However, reproducibility of the initial backset distances and of the sled pulses in every test plays an important role on the comparability of these results. In this study, in order to investigate these aspects, three different driver seat types are considered with three identical and unused samples for each of them, and by strictly following the European New Car Assessment Program (Euro NCAP) whiplash protocol and using the BioRID II dummy, totally nine sled tests are performed. The sled pulses are in general reproduced quite well for different vehicle seats in these tests. However, it is seen that there are differences of up to 5 mm in the initial backset distances recorded for the identical seats of the same type, while this difference increases up to 7 mm among the different seat types considered. Moreover, taking into account the associated tolerances allowed in this protocol, this uncertainty in the backset can even increase up to 10 mm. Based on the previous simulation results obtained by using the finite element model of the BioRID II dummy, linear regression models are constructed, and it is shown that a 10-mm increase in the backset will yield an increase of 2.25, 2.89 and 3.11 m(2)/s(2) in the NICmax values for the low, medium and high severity Euro NCAP pulses, respectively. Being 38, 22 and 31 % of the differences between the associated Euro NCAP higher and lower performance limits, and 68, 96 and 124 % of the differences between the associated Euro NCAP lower performance and capping limits, such increases in the NICmax values are found to bring an unacceptably high uncertainty in the test results, and they can even easily lead to the application of capping, which means giving a zero score for the entire test. In light of these findings, several suggestions are recommended for a more solid whiplash dynamic assessment procedure.
