It is well known that an assembly operation is usually constrained by the geometric interference between parts. These constraints are normally presented as AND/OR precedence relationships. To find a feasible assembly sequence which satisfies the geometric constraints is not an easy task because of the TSP(Traveling Salesman Problem) nature with precedence constraints. In this paper, we developed an automated system based on Neural Network for generating feasible assembly sequences. Modified Hopfield and Tank network is used to solve the problem of AND/OR precedence-constrained assembly sequences. An economic assembly sequence can be also obtained by applying the cost matrix that contains cost-reducing factors. To evaluate the performance and effectiveness of the developed system, a case of automobile generator is tested. The results show that the developed system can provide a "good" planning tool for an assembly planner within a reasonable computation time period.

Collision-free trajectory planning for two robots is considered. The two robot system handled in the paper is given specified geometric paths for two robots, and the task is repeating. Then, the robot dynamics is transformed as a function of the traveled lengths along the paths, and the bounds on acceleration and velocity are described in the phase plane be taking the constraints on torques and joint velocities into consideration. Collision avoidance and time optimality are considered simultaneously in the coordination space and the phase plane, respectively. The proof for the optimality of the proposed algorithm is given, and a simulation result is included to show the usefulness of the proposed method.

An effective dexterous motion control method of redundant robot manipulators based on neural optimization network is proposed to satisfy multi-criteria such as singularity avoidance, minimizing energy consumption, and avoiding physical limits of actuator, while performing a given task. The method employs a neural optimization network with parallel processing capability, where only a simple geometric analysis for resolved motion of each joint is required instead of computing of the Jacobian and its pseudo inverse matrix. For dexterous motion, a joint geometric manipulability measure(JGMM) is proposed. JGMM evaluates a contribution of each joint differential motion in enlarging the length of the shortest axis among principal axes of the manipulability ellipsoid volume approximately obtained by a geometric analysis. Redundant robot manipulators is then controlled by neural optimization networks in such a way that 1) linear combination of the resolved motion by each joint differential motion should be equal to the desired velocity, 2) physical limits of joints are not violated, and 3) weighted sum of the square of each differential joint motion is minimized where weightings are adjusted by JGMM. To show the validity of the proposed method, several numerical examples are illustrated.

SAR 영상은 기존의 전자광학적 센서가 갖고 있는 자료취득의 제한을 극복하고, 광학적 센서와 상호보완되는 정보를 제공한다. 하지만 SAR 센서와 지면의 기하학적 특성으로 인하여 영상에 내재되어 있는 다양한 기하학적 왜곡을 제거할 필요가 있다. SAR 영상의 기하보정 방법으로 여러 가지 다양한 기법이 소개되고 있지만, SAR 영상을 정확하게 기하보정하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 특히 Radarsat 위성에 채택되고 있는 "International" 타원체와 국내의 "Bessel" 타원체간의 변환관계가 확립되지 않아 기하보정에 어려움이 있다. 보편적으로 많이 이용되는 모의영상을 이용한 기하보정 방법과 공선조건식을 응용한 기하보정 방법에는 수치표고모형이 이용된다. 본 연구에서는 기하보정에 사용되는 방법간의 장점과 단점을 파악하고 국내에 적용될 수 있는 방법을 찾아냈다.

Off-line programming systems are widely spread in assembly lines of minute electronic products to huge offshore structures. Any OLP system has to be calibrated before the on-line robot tasks are performed because there are inherent differences between the CAD model on OLP and the real robot workspace. This paper uses simple geometric expressions to propose a calibration method applicable to an OLP for SCARA robots. A positioning task on the two-dimensional horizontal surface was used in the error analysis of a SCARA robot and the anaysis shows that the inaccuracy results from the two error sources non-zero offset angles of two rotational joints at the zero return and differences in link lengths. Pen marks on a sheet of plotting paper are used to determine the accurate data on the joint centers and link dimensions. The calculated offset angles and link lengths are fed back to the OLP for the calibration of the CAD model of the robot and task environments.

This paper addresses the trajectory tracking problem for ship berthing by using sliding mode technique. With significant potential advantages: insensitivity to plant nonlinearities, parameter variations, remarkable stability and robust performance with environmental disturbances, the multivariable sliding modes controller is proposed for solving trajectory tracking of ship in harbor area. In this study, the ship position and heading angle are simultaneously tracked to guarantees that the ship follows a given path (geometric task) with desired velocities (dynamic task). The stability of the proposed control law is proved based on Lyapunov theory. The proposed approach has been simulated on a computer model of a supply vessel with good results.

본 논문에서는 국제공동연구 DECOVALEX-2019 프로젝트의 일환으로 수행된 Task B Benchmark Model Test(BMT)의 연구 결과를 소개하였다. Task B는 'Fault slip modelling'을 연구주제로 하며, 유체의 주입으로 인해 발생하는 단층의 재활성과 수리역학적 연계거동을 예측할 수 있는 해석기법을 개발하는 데에 목적이 있다. BMT 시나리오 해석은 각 참가팀들의 수치모델이 단층의 수리역학적 연동거동을 적절히 모사할 수 있는지 교차검증함으로써 각 해석코드의 완성도를 높이기 위하여 수행되었으며, 주입압 적용 조건, 단층 물성, 수리역학적 연동해석 조건 등에 따라 7개의 해석 모델로 이루어져 있다. 본 연구에서는 TOUGH-FLAC 연동해석 기법을 이용하여, 역학적 변형으로 야기되는 단층의 수리적 물성 변화와 간극의 기하학적 변화를 동시에 반영할 수 있는 수리역학적 커플링 모듈을 개발하였다. BMT 시나리오 해석을 위하여 Task B 1단계(Step 1) 연구에서 개발된 수치모델을 일부 수정하였고, 단층의 변형에 따른 압축률과 투수계수, 단층의 해석 메쉬의 변화가 해석에 반영될 수 있도록 하였다. 단층의 투수량계수와 저류계수가 단층 내 압력 분포, 주입수량, 변위, 응력 등 수리역학적 거동에 미치는 영향을 검토하였으며, 수정된 수치모델을 기수행된 1단계 연구에 적용하여 해석결과를 업데이트하였다. 해석 결과, 본 연구에서 개발한 해석기법이 물 주입으로 인한 단층의 거동을 합리적인 수준에서 재현할 수 있는 것으로 판단할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 해석모델은 Task B에 참여하는 국외 연구팀들과의 의견 교류와 워크숍을 통해 지속적으로 개선하는 한편, 향후 연구의 현장시험에 적용하여 타당성을 검증할 예정이다.

Hybrid robust image processing algorithm to extract visual features of melon during the cultivation was developed based on a wireless tele-operative interface. Features of a melon such as size and shape including position were crucial to successful task automation and future development of cultivation data base. An algorithm was developed based on the concept of hybrid decision-making which shares a task between the computer and the operator utilizing man-computer interactive interface. A hybrid decision-making system was composed of three modules such as wireless image transmission, task specification and identification, and man-computer interface modules. Computing burden and the instability of the image processing results caused by the variation of illumination and the complexity of the environment caused by the irregular stem and shapes of leaves and shades were overcome using the proposed algorithm. With utilizing operator's teaching via LCD touch screen of the display monitor, the complexity and instability of the melon identification process has been avoided. Hough transform was modified for the image obtained from the locally specified window to extract the geometric shape and position of the melon. It took less than 200 milliseconds processing time.

This paper describes an experimental system for automatic robot programming, The SNU-ARPS (Seoul National University Automatic Robot Programming System). The SNU-ARPS generates executable robot programs for pick and place operation and some simple mechanical assembly tasks by menudriven dialog. It is intended to enable the user to concentrate on the overall operation sequence instead of the knowledge regarding the details of robot languages. To convert task specifications into manipulator motions, the SNU-ARPS uses an internal representation of the world. This representation initially consists of geometric database from CAD system and is updated at each operation step to reflect the state changes of the world.
