| Popis: | In this paper, a novel trajectory planning methodology is proposed for use within a semi-automated hydraulic rockbreaker system. The objective of the proposed method is to minimize the trajectory duration while hydraulic fluid flow rate limits are respected. Within the trajectory planning methodology, a point-to-point path planning approach based on the decoupling of the motion of the rockbreaker’s first joint is compared with an alternative approach based on Cartesian straight-line motion. Each of these path types is parameterized as a function of time based on an imposed trajectory profile that ensures smooth rockbreaker motions. A constrained nonlinear optimization problem is formulated and solved with the trajectory duration as the objective function while constraints are applied to ensure that flow rate limits through the rockbreaker’s proportional valves and hydraulic pump are not exceeded. The proposed methodology is successfully implemented to compute a set of representative trajectories, with the path planning approach based on the decoupling of the motion of the rockbreaker’s first joint consistently producing shorter trajectory durations. |
