Effect of joint stiffness on the dynamic stability of a one-link force-controlled manipulator
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 March 2009
Summary
Studies are the effects of joint flexibility on the dynamic stability of a one-link force-controlled manipulator. The closed-loop dynamic equation with the explicit force controller and the damping force controller are first derived. Stability analysis is then carried out by computing the system eigenvalues. Results indicate a conditionally stable system. Due to the presence of discontinuous contacts with the environment during the interaction process, the system exhibits a stable limit cycle when the force feedback gain goes beyond the critical value.
