With the continuous growth of the automobile trade, the inefficiency of traditional cargo transshipment in Roll-On/Roll-Off (RO/RO) terminals has become increasingly pronounced. As a result, the adoption of autonomous transportation robot (ATR) for the automatic handling of finished vehicles has seen significant growth. However, ATRs designed for this purpose face several limitations, including suboptimal mobility performance and the necessity for additional infrastructure to support their operation. This paper introduces a novel ATR that offers enhanced flexibility and operational capability. To further optimize the positioning of LiDAR, we develop a multi-stage LiDAR fusion algorithm for the precise localization of finished vehicles, incorporating an event-triggered decision-making approach to improve positioning accuracy. Based on the accurate positioning data, we propose a docking strategy consisting of two key phases: the approach phase and the docking phase. During the docking phase, an enhanced Model Predictive control (MPC) algorithm, integrated with a Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network, is designed to enable real-time adjustment of the robot’s docking attitude. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated through real-world robot experimentals demonstrating its practical viability.

This study presents a novel impact time and angle constrained guidance law for homing missiles. The guidance law is first developed with the prior-assumption of a stationary target, which is followed by the practical extension to a maneuvering target scenario. To derive the closed-form guidance law, the trajectory reshaping technique is utilized and it results in defining a specific polynomial function with two unknown coefficients. These coefficients are determined to satisfy the impact time and angle constraints as well as the zero miss distance. Furthermore, the proposed guidance law has three additional guidance gains as design parameters which make it possible to adjust the guided trajectory according to the operational conditions and missile's capability. Numerical simulations are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed guidance law. (C) 2016 Chinese Society of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Production and hosting by Elsevier Ltd.

It is a key challenge for soft grasping devices to stably grasp unstructured objects with multi-size and multi-shape. The conventional single-function grippers have some limitations in grasping the above kinds of objects. This work proposes a modular four-modal soft grasping device(MFSGD), which consists of soft fingers, suction cups, soft wrapper, and other structures. It can perform a variety of grasping modes such as bending grasping mode, wrapping grasping mode, end liftingsucking mode, and side fixed-sucking mode. It may be one of the devices with the most grasping modes at present. Moreover, the device adopts a fully modular design with different structures connected by magnets. It is not only convenient to disassemble or assemble, so as to solve the mutual interference of different modal structures problem during grasping, but also simplifies the fabrication of the multi-modal grasping device. In addition, this work matches the suitable grasping modes for objects of different shapes and sizes, and obtains the relative characteristics of the MFSGD. The proposed device can improve the ability of the grasping robots, and is expected to play an important role in economic and industrial fields.

The terminal guidance problem for an unpowered lifting reentry vehicle against a sta- tionary target is considered. In addition to attacking the target with high accuracy, the vehicle is also expected to achieve a desired impact angle. In this paper, a sliding mode control (SMC)-based guidance law is developed to satisfy the terminal angle constraint. Firstly, a specific sliding mode function is designed, and the terminal requirements can be achieved by enforcing both the sliding mode function and its derivative to zero at the end of the flight. Then, a backstepping approach is used to ensure the finite-time reaching phase of the sliding mode and the analytic expression of the control effort can be obtained. The trajectories generated by this method only depend on the initial and terminal conditions of the terminal phase and the instantaneous states of the vehicle. In order to test the performance of the proposed guidance law in practical application, numerical simulations are carried out by taking all the aerodynamic parameters into consideration. The effec- tiveness of the proposed guidance law is verified by the simulation results in various scenarios.

A novel high-order sliding mode control strategy is proposed for the attitude control problem of reentry vehicles in the presence of parametric uncertainties and external disturbances, which results in the robust and accurate tracking of the aerodynamic angle commands with the finite time convergence. The proposed control strategy is developed on the basis of integral sliding mode philosophy, which combines conventional sliding mode control and a linear quadratic regulator over a finite time interval with a free-final-state and allows the finite-time establishment of a high-order sliding mode. Firstly, a second-order sliding mode attitude controller is designed in the proposed high-order siding mode control framework. Then, to address the control chattering problem, a virtual control is introduced in the control design and hence a third-order sliding mode attitude controller is developed, leading to the chattering reduction as well as the control accuracy improvement. Finally, simulation examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
