چکیده

اغلب ربات‌های پیوسته دارای ستون فقرات منطعف و تغییرشکل‌پذیر هستند. از این‌رو، تحت بارگذاری‌های داخلی و خارجی، دچار تغییرشکل می‌شوند و انرژی پتانسیل قابل‌ملاحظه‌ای در آن‌ها ذخیره می‌شود. در نتیجه، این ربات‌ها در معرض پدیده‌هایی همچون ناپایداری[1] و جهش[2] قرار دارند. جهش زمانی رخ می‌دهد که با تغییر نیروهای اعمالی، ربات به انتهای ناحیه‌ی پایدار خود برسد و به صورت غیرقابل‌کنترل از وضعیت تعادل ناپایدار به وضعیت تعادل پایدار خود حرکت کند. جهش در ربات‌های پیوسته پدیده‌ای نامطلوب و مضر است. بنابراین پیش‌بینی وقوع آن بسیار حاثز اهمیت است. با این حال، عمده‌ی مطالعات انجام‌شده در حوزه‌ی ربات‌های پیوسته بر طراحی، تحلیل سینماتیک و دینامیک این ربات‌ها معطوف بوده و تحقیقات در زمینه‌ی پایداری این ربات‌ها محدود است. در این مقاله، تحلیل پایداری دسته‌ای از ربات‌های پیوسته با محرک‌های کابلی مورد توجه قرار می‌گیرد. برای این منظور ابتدا به کمک روابط تعادل استاتیکی، وضعیت‌(های) تعادل ربات تحت بارگذاری‌های داخلی و خارجی تعیین می‌شود. سپس با تشکیل ماتریس سفتی برای ربات، پایداری ربات و شرایط وقوع پدیده‌ی جهش بررسی می‌شود. به منظور ارزیابی صحت مدل استاتیکی، از آزمایش‌های تجربی استفاده می‌شود. همچنین با انجام شبیه‌سازی، احتمال وقوع جهش در ربات‌های مذکور بررسی می‌شود. بعلاوه، تاثیر مقدار نیروی خارجی، جهت‌گیری ربات در فضا و سطح مقطع ستون فقرات ربات بر  فضای کاری و وقوع جهش در ربات مطالعه می‌شود.

چکیده [English]

Most of the continuum robots have flexible backbones that are deformed under the internal and external loads and a considerable amount of potential energy may be stored in the backbone. Hence, the continuum robots are exposed to instability issues such as snap-through. The snap-through instability occurs when, with changes in the applied forces, the robot reaches the boundary of its stable region and then moves toward a stable configuration in an uncontrolled manner. Snap-through instability is harmful to the continuum robots and its prediction is important for the design and control of the robot. However, most of the studies focused on design, kinematics, and dynamics of the continuum robots and there are limited studies worked on stability analysis of these robots. In this paper, the stability analysis of the cable-driven continuum robots is investigated. For this, the static equilibrium configurations of the robot are firstly determined under the internal and external loadings. Then, the stiffness matrix of the robot is obtained and the robot stability and snap-through condition are evaluated. The accuracy of the static equations of the robot is verified using the experimental results and the possibility of snap-through occurrence is modeled through simulations. Besides, the effects of the external loads, robot configuration in space, and cross-section of the backbone on the workspace and snap-through occurrence are studied.
