Abstract
En 中文
A controller is proposed to guide a multi-articulated robot vehicle (MARV) moving backwards, following a certain path. The ability to avoid fixed and moving obstacles is included, using the null space-based control technique to manage the conflicting tasks of following a path and avoiding obstacles. Additionally, control gains are modulated, thus reducing the risk of jackknifing. These new approaches are the contributions of the article. Results of laboratory-scale experiments with a MARV pushing one and two trailers are presented and discussed, which validate the proposed controller. Simulation results are also presented considering a MARV with three trailers, showing that the proposed controller can be adopted for larger articulated chains and another experiment that shows that it is possible to avoid moving obstacles.
