Halt Optimization Strategy for a Space Manipulator with a Joint-Locked Failure

Abstract EN

Aiming at a space manipulator with a joint-locked failure, a halt optimization strategy is proposed in this paper.

Firstly, a halt configuration optimization model (HCOM) is constructed, to select an optimal configuration where the kinematic ability of the manipulator is the best.

Secondly, considering the constraint of joint running parameters and the disturbance torque of the base, we construct and solve the halt motion optimization model (HMOM), which can achieve a steady halt and ensure the safety of the manipulator.

The correctness and effectiveness of the proposed strategy in this paper are verified with a 7-DOF space manipulator.

This strategy firstly puts forward the idea of halt configuration optimization and realizes the minimum global disturbance torque of the base in the halt process.
