Makwana, Arvind N. Nakiya, AnuragNema Assistant Professor, Department of Food Engineering, College of Food Processing Technology and Bio Energy, Anand Agricultural University, Anand, India ABSTRACT As flexible link manipulator (FLM) more often used in applications viz.,space and terrestrial applications, micro-surgical operation, collision control and contouring control which may be used in grinding robots, nuclear maintenance, e.g., to perform decontamination tasks and are widely used where volume constrain is there. Hence, more rapid and easier method to solve dynamics of FLM is much in concern. This paper presents dynamic modeling techniques using finite element method for flexible robots using rigid link theory. In this approach main emphasis is to discretise whole flexible link in very small parts each considering as a rigid link. Then applying Lagrange-Euler formulationof rigid link with finite element method dynamics of FLM can be solved. Keywords: Discretisation, Dynamics, Finite Element Method, Flexible link manipulator (FLM), Rigid link manipulator 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Hyper-Redundant Robots These are robots in the form of serpentine or snake or rodshape. Snakes, tentacle, trunk, and fish are examples of biological hyper-redundant bodies. The redundancy means different ways to perform the same movement and is usually denoted in terms of degrees of freedom. Robots with a snake-like locomotion have these advantages: 1. The redundancy allows them to still function after losingmobility in one or more sections; 2. Stability on all terrain because of low center of gravity; 3. Terrainability which is the ability to traverse rough terrain; 4. Traction is very high as the whole body is involved; 5. High efficiency in energy use as there is no need to liftthe body; 6. Small size that can penetrate small cracks; 7. They are capable of being amphibious by sealing thewhole body, the same body motion on land is then[1].

DYNAMICS OF RIGID-LINK Manipulator dynamics is concerned with the equations of motion, the way in which the manipulator moves in response to torques applied by the actuators, or external forces. The history and mathematics of the dynamics of serial-link manipulators is well covered by Paul and Hollerbach[2]. There are several methods by which dynamics of the rigid manipulator has solved as: 1. Newton-Euler formulation 2. Langrange-Euler formulation 3. Generalized d’Alembert equation of motion There are two problems related to manipulator dynamics that are important to solve: • Inverse dynamics in which the manipulator’s equations of motion are solved for given motion to determine the generalized forces and • Direct dynamics in which the equations of motion are integrated to determine the generalized coordinate response to applied generalized forces. 2.1 Lagrange-Euler Formulation The general motion equation of a manipulator can conveniently be expressed through the direct application of the Lagrange-Euler formulation to non-conservative system. Many investigators utilize the Denavit-Hartenberg matrix representation to describe the spatial displacement between the neighboring link coordinate frame to obtain link kinematics information and they employ the L-E equation to derive dynamic equation of manipulator. The derivation of the dynamic equation of an n degree of freedom manipulator is based on the understanding of: • The 4X4 homogeneous coordinate transformation matrix, i-1 Ai, which describes the spatial relationship between the ith and (i-1)th link coordinate frame. It relates the point fixed in link i expressed in homogeneous coordinates with respect to ith coordinate system to the (i-1)th coordinates system[3]. • The Lagrange-Euler equation: ௗ ௗ௧ ቂ డ௅ డ௤పሶ ቃ െ డ௅ డ௤௜ ൌ τi=1, 2,… ,n (1) Where L= Lagrangian function= kinetic energy K – potential energy P K= total kinetic energy of the robot arm

Generalized coordinates are used as a convenient set of a coordinates which completely describe the location of a system with respect to reference coordinate frame. 3. DYNAMICS OF FLEXIBLE LINK There are methods by which we can solve the dynamics of the flexible manipulator as[4]: 1. Newton-Euler formulation 2. Lagrange-Euler formulation 3. Generalized d’Alembert equation of motion 4. Recursive Gibbs-Appell formulation 5. Finite dimensional approximation 6. Hamilton’s principle and FE approach 7. Assume mode method and Lagrange approach Because of below Advantages of Lagrange Approach over other methods it is more preferred. 1. The Lagrange Approach automatically yields as many equations as there are degrees of freedom. It has the convenience of energy methods, but whereas energy conservation only yields just one equation, which isn’t enough for a multi-degree-of freedom system, Lagrange yields as many equations as you need. 2. The Lagrange equations naturally use the generalized coordinates of the system. By contrast, Newton’s Equations are essentially Cartesian which ends up having to convert everything into Cartesian components of acceleration and Cartesian components of forces to use Newton’s Equation. Lagrange bypasses that conversion. 3. The Lagrange approach naturally eliminates non-contributing forces. In case of the direct (Newtonian) approach ability to minimize the number of variables depends very much on skill whereas Lagrange takes care of it because the generalized forces only include force components in directions of admissible motion. 3.1 Dynamics using Lagrange-Euler approach In order to obtain a set of differential equations of motion to adequately describe the dynamics of a flexible link manipulator, the Lagrange-Euler approach can be used. A system with n generalized coordinates qi must satisfy n differential equations of the form: ௗ ௗ௧ ሾ డ௅ డ௤పሶ ሿ െ డ௅ డ௤௜ ൅ డ஽ డ௤పሶ ൌ ߬௜i=1,2,…,n (2) Where L is the so called Lagrangian which is given by L=K-P; K represents the kinetic energy of the system and P the potential energy. Also, D is the Rayleigh’s dissipation function which allows dissipative effects to be included, and τi is the generalized force acting on qi. To solve dynamics using above approach directly for flexible link much mathematical calculations and computational complexities comes in solving the problem. Instead of using above approach if someone use approach presented in this paper (L-E theory of rigid link with FEM), there is much reduction in mathematical calculations and computational difficulties.

DYNAMICS WITH THREE EQUAL LINKS For an example we will solve dynamics for three links only and on the basis of that, one can expand equation up to number of links as per need. For definiteness we will again consider a simple case where l1, l2, and l3 are all equal to a length l. The more general case involves a lot more arithmetic and the form of the final result is the same, only numerical constants will be changed. Further, we will ignore gravity for now, and assume the links to be uniform sticks of mass m and inertia (l/12)ml2 about their center of mass. Once again we start by finding the rotational and translational velocities of each of the links. Evidently the angular velocities of the three links are, ߠሶଵ,൫ߠሶଵ ൅ ߠሶଶ൯,൫ߠሶଵ ൅ ߠሶଶ ൅ ߠሶଷ൯ [4].
