We present a design optimisation method for the routing of tendons in a tendon-driven mechanism with the objective of maximising force transmission efficiency (FTE). We formulate a friction model for the different routing elements, accounting for routing point radii and slipping/rolling contacts. We then construct a numerical design optimisation problem to optimise the design parameters, routing point locations, for a given tendon routing topology. We apply the method to the design of an existing tendon-driven gripper. The results show that frictional losses can be reduced by approximately half compared to the baseline design, and that taking into account the routing point radii is indeed of significant influence.
Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a control scheme that involves predicting the future behavior of a system and optimizing control actions to accomplish the desired objective. In this study, we develop an intelligent ...
