Modélisation d'un robot manipulateur en vue de la commande robuste en force utilisé en soudage FSW

摘要

The work presented in this thesis focuses on the modeling and robust force control of flexible joints industrial robot manipulators used for FSW process. In order to reduce computation time and memory occupation, a novel interval-based approach for dynamic model simplification of industrial robots is proposed, which applies to arbitrary trajectories of whole robot workspace and contributes to obtaining negligible inertia parameters. Cases studies have been carried out on three kinds of test trajectories and torques analysis of robot dynamic equation, demonstrating the effectiveness and good performance of the simplification method. Then, the dynamic modeling and identification of robotic FSW process is performed, and the parameters of linear and nonlinear dynamic axial force process models are identified by using the plunge depth and its derivative. On the basis of the modeling of robotic FSW process which simultaneously considers the complete kinematics, the rigid robot displacement model, the joint flexibility and the dynamic axial force process model, a robust force controller can be obtained by using the frequency response approach. Besides, a simulator of robotic FSW process is developed and simulation results show good performance of the force controller. The oscillation of axial force in FSW process can be simulated when a disturbance model of initial vertical reference position is proposed and used in the simulation.
