This two link robot moves in the xy plane, with gravity g acting in y direction. Each
joint has actuator so that torque can be provided when needed. For simplification, the
two links are modeled as point masses m1 and m2 concentrated at the end of the link.
The system has no friction so that there
The Lagrangian of this dynamic system is defined as the difference between the
kinetic and potential energy,
.
Kinetic energy equation
I get
When the initial x1 and x2 is less than 0, the system oscillates at different
amplitude with different initial conditions.
3. Bifurcation
In this part, an external force F is introduced to this system. The force is applied
at the end-effector (the end of link two). The actuators at joint 1 and 2 do not
apply torque.
The external force can be decomposed into the torque applied to joint 1 and 2
by using the equation.
𝜏 = 𝐽𝑇 𝐹
1. When F is in y direction, equilibrium points stay the same.
I tried Fx=0, arbitrary value for Fy, both positive and negative, equilibrium
points stay the same.
