| Summary: | Hydraulic actuated legged robots display bright prospects and significant research value in areas such as unmanned area surveying, disaster rescue, military fields, and other scenarios owing to their excellent bionic characteristics, particularly their heavy payload capabilities and high power density. To realize the all-terrain adaptation locomotion of the hydraulic hexapod robot (HHR) with a heavy payload, one alternative control framework is position–posture control based on joint position control. As the foundation for the steady locomotion of HHRs, it is imperative to realize high-precision joint position control to improve the robustness under external disturbances during the walking process and to complete the attitude control task. To address the above issues, this paper proposes a sliding mode repetitive control based on the unknown dynamics estimator (SMRC + UDE) for the knee and hip joints of the HHR with a two-stage supply pressure hydraulic system (TSS). The effectiveness of the SMRC + UDE method is verified using a simulation environment and the ZJUHEX01 prototype experimental platform, and it is compared with the results for PID and adaptive robust sliding mode control (ARSMC). The results show that SMRC + UDE may be more suitable for our HHR, considering both the control performance and efficiency factors. |
