Accurate hydrodynamics coefficients measurement and spatial modeling of ROV are significant for the maneuverability and control algorithm. The scaled model of ROV was constructed by 1:1.6. Hydrodynamics coefficients were measured through VPMM and LAHPMM towing test. And dynamics model was derived as a set of equations, describing nonlinear and coupled 5-DOF spatial motions. Rotation control motion was simulated to verify spatial model proposed. Research and application of hydrodynamics coefficients are expected to enable ROV to overcome uncertainty and disturbances of deepsea environment, and accomplish some more challengeable and practical missions.展开更多

The presented formulation takes account of the geometric nonlinearities of large displacement, effects of axial load and bending stiffness for modeling of slack cables. The resulting nonlinear second-order governing equations are discretized spatially by the finite element method and solved temporally by the generalized-a implicit time integration algorithm, which is adapted to the case of varying coefficient matrices. The ability to consider three-dimensional union action of ocean current and ship heave motion upon the umbilical cable is the key feature of this analysis. The presented formulation is firstly validated, and then three numerical examples for the umbilical cable in a deep-sea ROV system are demonstrated and discussed, including the steady configurations only under the action of depth-dependent ocean current, the dynamic responses in the case of the only ship heave motion, and in the case of the combined action of the ship heave motion and ocean current.展开更多

A novel geometrically exact finite element model for two-dimensional dynamic analysis of armored cable is presented. This model accounts for the geometric nonlinearities of large displacement of the armored cable, and effects of axial load and bending stiffness. The governing equations are derived by consistent linearization and finite element discretization of the total weak form of the armored cable system, and solved by the Newmark time integration method. To make the solution procedure avoid falling into the local extreme points, a simple adaptive stepping strategy is proposed. The presented model is validated via actual measured data. Results for dynamic configurations, motion and tension of both ends of the armored cable, and resonance-zone are presented for two numerical cases, including the dynamic analysis under the case of only ship heave motion and the case of joint action of ship heave motion and ocean current. The dynamics analysis can provide important reference for the design or product selection of the armored cable in a deep-sea ROV system so as to improve the safety of its marine operation under the sea state of 4 or above.展开更多
文摘本文针对一种新型遥控无人潜水器(Remote Operated Vehicle,ROV)拖曳采集装置(Mining Robot,MRT)的路径跟踪问题,提出一种路径跟踪控制方法。首先建立简化的ROV型深海采集装置的运动模型,随后提出一种基于线性模型预测控制算法(Linear Model Predictive Control,LMPC)和非线性模型预测控制器(Nonlinear Model Predictive Control,NMPC)的路径跟踪算法。与传统的模型预测控制器(Model Predictive Control,MPC)不同,本文提出的双层模型预测控制算法(Double Model Predictive Control,DMPC)由两部分组成:(1)由MRT的LMPC控制器计算得到MRT的速度控制律,用于快速收敛MRT的跟踪误差;(2)由ROV的NMPC控制器计算得到ROV的控制输入,用于响应MRT的速度控制律。在DMPC的设计中,有效考虑状态量和控制量约束,其中为了保证ROV控制输入的平顺性,引入ROV的控制量增量约束。最后,设计仿真实验用于验证MRT的路径跟踪效果,数值仿真结果证明了该算法的有效性。
