Über dieses Buch

This book provides an essential overview of the authors’ work in the field of cable-suspended parallel robots, focusing on innovative design, mechanics, control, development and applications. It presents and analyzes several typical mechanical architectures of cable-suspended parallel robots in practical applications, including the feed cable-suspended structure for super antennae, hybrid-driven-based cable-suspended parallel robots, and cooperative cable parallel manipulators for multiple mobile cranes. It also addresses the fundamental mechanics of cable-suspended parallel robots on the basis of their typical applications, including the kinematics, dynamics and trajectory tracking control of the feed cable-suspended structure for super antennae. In addition it proposes a novel hybrid-driven-based cable-suspended parallel robot that uses integrated mechanism design methods to improve the performance of traditional cable-suspended parallel robots. A comparative study on error and performance indices of hybrid-driven based and traditional cable-suspended parallel robots rounds out the coverage.
This book addresses the needs of researchers, engineers and post-graduates in the field of cable-suspended parallel robots and related areas.

Chapter 1. Introduction
Abstract
Cable-suspended parallel robots (CPR) are parallel manipulators in which the end-effectors are driven by cables instead of rigid links. The CPRs can be required not only for operations with greater flexibility, but also for large reachable workspace and high payload. The development of the cable-driven parallel manipulator is introduced and the latest advance in theory and applications of cable-driven parallel manipulator is presented.

Chapter 2. Kinematics and Dynamics of the Feed Cable-Suspended Structure for Super Antenna
Abstract
Design and experiment of the feed cable-suspended structure for the next generation large spherical radio telescope are presented. The optimization design of the telescope structure is performed and the connection between stable cables and twisting stiffness is verified. The inverse kinematic and dynamic model of CPR with non-negligible cable mass is carry out. Furthermore, the inverse dynamic formulation of the mechanical system including servomechanism dynamics is established by using Lagrange’s Equations.

Chapter 3. Trajectory Tracking Control of the Feed Cable-Suspended Structure for Super Antenna
Abstract
The fuzzy plus proportional-integral control (FPPIC) method, which can enhance the control performance for steady state errors, is utilized to control the wind-induced vibration of the trajectory tracking of the feed. Moreover, the simulation and experiment are respectively deployed on the 5-m and 50-m scaled model to test the different dynamic modeling present in former chapter and justify the efficiency of purposed control strategy.

Chapter 4. Integrated Mechanism Design and Control of the Hybrid-Driven Based Cable-Suspended Parallel Robots
Abstract
The dynamic model of the HDCPR is developed on the basis of Lagrange method. Then, an adaptive iterative learning control strategy is designed for the high-precision trajectory tracking. Furthermore, the stability of the controller is proved by means of Lyapunov function. In order to improve the dynamic performance of the HDCPR system, a methodology of simultaneous optimal design of mechanism and control for the HDCPR is presented. The dynamic modeling of the HDCPR is performed based on Newton-Euler method, and the workspace of the manipulator is also analyzed.

Chapter 9. Development, Coordinated Control and Experiments of the Cooperative Cable Parallel Manipulators for Multiple Mobile Cranes
Abstract
The complete kinematics and dynamics of the cooperative cable parallel manipulators for multiple mobile cranes is studied, which is the foundation for the further research of this new promising and significant engineering equipment. The kinematics of the cooperative three mobile cranes with point-mass is established with elimination method, including both forward and inverse kinematics. Based on Lagrange equation and the kinematics, the complete dynamic model of the CPRMC is derived. A robust iterative learning controller (ILC) of the CPRMC is designed on the basis of the linearization of the dynamics. Numerical simulation is conducted in order to investigate the dynamics and the designed robust ILC of the CPRMC.
