Q2. What are the contributions in this paper?
The authors propose a systematic modeling of the nonholonomic mobile manipulators built from a robotic arm mounted on a wheeled mobile platform.
Q3. What is the first solution to generate the control of maneuvrability of the mobile?
When the system has one or several steering wheels, a first solution to generate the control of maneuvrability of the mobile manipulator could be to use the control scheme given in this paper to compute the control of mobility and then to compute the control of steerability independently.
Q4. How can the control of mobility be synthesized independently?
as the operational velocity is independent from the control of steerability (see eq. (11)), it can be synthesized independently.
Q5. what is the common way to model a robotic arm?
The most usual way to model a robotic arm consists of using the Denavit–Hartenberg modified parameters (Craig 1989; Khalil and Kleinfinger 1986).
Q6. What is the kinematic model of a robotic arm?
The kinematic model (KM) of a robotic arm sets the location of its EE as a function of its configuration (or its operational coordinates as functions of its generalized coordinates):f a : Na −→ Ma q a −→ ξ a = f a(q a).
Q7. What are the advantages of a mobile platform and a robotic arm?
For instance, the mobile platform extends the workspace, while the arm offers many operational functionalities (simply opening a door for the robot).
Q8. What is the way to control the arm?
If the user wants to keep the platform motionless to manipulate with the arm alone, it would be convenient to reach the operating site in a good configuration for the arm, from a manipulation point of view.
Q9. What is the kinematic location model of the mobile manipulator?
Also the authors obtain the instantaneous kinematic location model (IKLM) of the mobile manipulator, which sets the derivative of the EE location as a function of the control of mobility.
Q10. What is the relationship between the ellipse and the condition number?
For instance, in a planar case, if wa5 = 0, the ellipse is a circle and ifwa5 = 1 it is flat, which means that the EE can only move in one direction (it is closely related to wa2 and thus to the condition number).
