Hi.
I' m trying to develop a simulation model of a 4-wheel omnidirectional vehicle.
I'm using the torque actuation in the revolute joints connecting the wheels with the chassis. A feedback loop with a PI controller in each joint keeps the angular velocity constant. The control works fine with the wheels in the air (no contact with the floor).
But when I let the wheels get in contact with the floor, the angular velocity neasured in the revolute joints shows a lot of 'noise':
The movent of the vehicle on the floor is correct. it moves forward-backward, left-right and CW-CCW as expected but the mesured angular velocity of the wheels is awfull. I'm sure that these disturbances are due to the spatial contact forces. I've tried changing the contact and friction parameters but I can not get rid of the noise.
Find attached the file solids and the simulation model if you want to try it.
Any help will be very appreciated.
Best regards

Good question. may I ask the problem solved?
Generally, the motor output shaft is with a reducer before the wheel

Dear Casanova,
My name is Le Dinh Thieu. I am student at da nang sciense and technology university at Vietnam. During this semester, i have a PBL about Mecanum robot but I have many difficulties in the process of building model simulations in simscape modeling even though I have read your article about this issue. Maybe my understanding of simscape is not enough, so from the dynamic equation you stated in the document, I hope you can send me more detailed documents about simscape modeling mecanum robot.
Thank you very much

Hi there
When look at the wheels, it looks like they are made of transversal cylinders on the perimeter. Rolling would be disrupted and discontinuous on the floor. But i can have a quick look if any correction can be made.

Hola Juan
Otra vez, gracias por tu ayuda.
He simulado lo que me envias pero no acabo de verlo. En el Nexus05_Discreto.slx va bastante bien pero la lectura de velocidad sigue sin ser como la que se obtiene en el vehiculo real. La velocidad de giro del motor real no puede hacer esos cambios tan bruscos y aunque pudiera el encoder no podria medirlos. Asi que he pensado que lo mejor es filtrar la lectura de los sensores de velocidad y con esto me sale una señal muy parecida a la real. Es un poco hacer trampas pero de lo que se trata es de que el modelo de simulación refleje la realidad. Lo hemos comparado con los resultados reales, y encaja bastante bien. Tanto en la lectura de los encoders que miden la velocidad de las ruedas como en los desplazamientos XY y la orientación. Te adjunto todo el modelo en un .zip por si quieres probarlo.
El Nexus05_Golden_Ref.slx me va muy lento. Queremos hacer un simulador interativo que funcione a tiempo real y la simulación a paso variable no es muy buena para esto. Si le activo el pacing me tarda como un minuto en simular los 8 segundos. Supongo que depende mucho de la máquina.
Por cierto, no he entendido lo de "El modelo de referencia (ode23t) ejecuta con run/sim aprox. 9.5-10. "
En cualquier caso te agradezco mucho tu ayuda.
Para cualquier cosa que necesites mi correo aquí en la Universidad Politécnica de Valencia es vcasanov@isa.upv.es.
Un saludo
