Multi task Saturation in the Null Space (SNS) method at acceleration and velocity level

This repository contain the framework for computing the Saturation in the Null Space method at acceleration and velocity level, using preemptive prioritization strategy.

Description

The SNS method is a Null Space method to perform prioritized multi task motion control of redudant robot under hard joint constraints, using the preemtive prioritization approach. Proceeds, iteration by iteration, by discarding the commands that exceed the hard bounds of a task with a specific priority, and reintroducing them at their saturated level, by projection in the Null Space of a suitable Jacobian associated to the already considered tasks (higher priority tasks). Moreover, if the command exceed also with the redistributed effort, a task scaling approach is used to keep the joints into their bounds.

Simulation

All simulation are performed at acceleration level, using a sampling time of 1 ms.

Simulation on Planar 4R

  • Simulation 1:
    • task 1: trajectory tracking task of the hexagon
  • Simulation 2:
    • task 1: trajectory tracking task of the hexagon plus (higher priority),
    • task 2: keep link 1 parallel to the x-axis (lower priority).
  • Simulation 3:
    • task 1: trajectory tracking task of the hexagon plus (higher priority),
    • task 2: self motion dumping, using a configuration space task (lower priority).

  • Simulation 1:
    • task 1: trajectory tracking task of the segment.
  • Simulation 2:
    • task 1: trajectory tracking task of the segment (higher priority),
    • task 2: self motion dumping, using a configuration space task (lower priority).

Usage

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/ValerioSpagnoli/Multi-task-SNS-at-velocity-and-acceleration-level.git

Run the simulation

  1. Add the repository to the MATLAB path.

  2. Open main.m and set the variables for a costum simulation:

    1. level: <velocity, acceleration>
    2. robot_name = <Planar4R, KUKA_LBR_IV, KUKA_LBR_IIWA_7_R800>
    3. q_0: initial configuration of the robot
    4. q_dot_0: initial velocity of the robot;
    5. q_ddot_0 = initial acceleration of the robot;
    6. simulation_step: sampling time of the simulation;
    7. epsilon: the tollerance with which are reached the points of the path;

    Note: A value can be set NaN. In this case the simulation will be run with the default parameter. The default parameters are configurated into the simulation files Simulation_KUKA.m and Simulation_Planar4R.m.

  3. Run the file main.m using the following command in the MATALB console:

    sim = main();

  4. Show the simulation results using the following command:

    matlab_simulation = MATLAB_simulation(sim);

    Note: that by setting the folder_path variable into the file MATLAB_simulation.m you can save all the plots in a personal folder.
