超大口径环形天线包带展开过程动力学仿真

中间柔性包带是环形可展开天线的重要组成部分。中间包带拔销器解锁后,复材包带与环形桁架同步展开。因复材包带柔性较强,它会绕根部固定端进行回弹,因此展开过程存在金属接头和桁架上复材薄壁管件碰撞风险。随着天线口径增大,该风险会持续增大。基于柔性多体动力学理论对超大型口径环形可展开天线包带展开过程进行动力学建模仿真,并在此基础上分析得出包带展开过程金属接头到环形桁架最小距离主要和复材包带阻尼率以及桁架预展速度相关。通过进一步研究发现：复材包带阻尼率越高,展开过程金属接头到环形桁架最小距离越大;桁架预展速度越快,展开过程金属接头到环形桁架最小距离越小。此外,对逆止回弹机构失效这一在轨极端条件下包带展开过程进行建模仿真,分析得出包带在该条件下展开过程金属接头到环形桁架最小距离变化规律。该研究可为超大口径环形天线结构优化设计及包带在轨展开预示提供依据。

Modeling and control for cooperative transport of a slung fluid container using quadrotors

In this paper, dynamic modeling and control problem for transfer of a sloshing liquid container suspended through rigid massless links from a team of quadrotors are investigated. By the proposed solution, pose of the slung container and fluid sloshing modes are stabilized appropriately. Dynamics of the container-liquid-quadrotors system is modeled by Euler-Lagrange method. Fluid slosh dynamics is included using multi-mass-spring model. According to derived model, a proper control law is designed for a system with three or more quadrotors. Implementing the proposed control law, quadrotors can control pose of the container, directions of the links and liquid sloshing modes simultaneously. Stability of closed loop system of tracking errors and sloshing modes are demonstrated using a theory of singularly perturbed systems and Lyapunov stability theorem. Also, the capability of the proposed feedback control laws in solving a formerly organized transport problem of a liquid filled container has been demonstrated in simulations. Moreover, priority of the proposed control scheme to an existing slung load controller in the literature is demonstrated.     

Modeling and experimental validation of sawing based lander anchoring and sampling methods for asteroid exploration

This paper presents a novel lander anchoring system based on sawing method for asteroid exploration. The system is composed of three robotic arms, three cutting discs, and a control system. The discs mounted at the end of the arms are able to penetrate into the rock surface of asteroids. After the discs cut into the rock surface, the self-locking function of the arms provides forces to fix the lander on the surface. Modeling, trajectory planning, simulations, mechanism design, and prototype fabrication of the anchoring system are discussed, respectively. The performances of the system are tested on different kinds of rocks, at different sawing angles, locations, and speeds. Results show that the system can cut 15?mm deep into granite rock in 180?s at sawing angle of 60°, with the average power of 58.41?W, and the “weight on bit” (WOB) of 8.637?N. The 7.8?kg anchoring system is capable of providing omni-directional anchoring forces, at least 225?N normal and 157?N tangent to the surface of the rock. The system has the advantages of low-weight, low energy consumption and balance forces, high anchoring efficiency and reliability, and could enable the lander to move and sample or assist astronauts and robots in walking and sampling on asteroids.
