Quiz 01: Lecture Comprehension, Lagrangian Formulation of Dynamics (Chapter 8 through 8.1.2, Part 1 of 2)

Q1. The Lagrangian for a mechanical system is

  • the kinetic energy plus the potential energy.
  • the kinetic energy minus the potential energy.

Q2. To evaluate the Lagrangian equations of motion,

\tau_i = \frac{d}{dt} \frac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{\theta}_i} – \frac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial \theta_i}τi​=dtd​∂θ˙i​∂L​−∂θi​∂L​,

you must be able to take derivatives, such as the partial derivative with respect to a joint variable or velocity or a total derivative with respect to time. Therefore, the product rule and chain rules for derivatives will be useful. (If you have forgotten them, you can refresh your memory with any standard reference, including Wikipedia.) Which of the answers below represents the time derivative of 2 \theta_1 \cos(4 \theta_2)2θ1​cos(4θ2​), where \theta_1θ1​ and \theta_2θ2​ are functions of time?

  • -8 \dot{\theta}_1 \sin(4 \theta_2)−8θ˙1​sin(4θ2​)
  • 2 \dot{\theta}_1 \cos (4 \theta_2) – 8 \theta_1 \sin(4 \theta_2) \dot{\theta}_22θ˙1​cos(4θ2​)−8θ1​sin(4θ2​)θ˙2​
  • 2 \dot{\theta}_1 \cos (4 \theta_2) – 2 \theta_1 \sin(4 \theta_2) \dot{\theta}_22θ˙1​cos(4θ2​)−2θ1​sin(4θ2​)θ˙2​
  • 2 \dot{\theta}_1 \cos (4 \theta_2) + 2 \theta_1 \cos(4 \theta_2) \dot{\theta}_22θ˙1​cos(4θ2​)+2θ1​cos(4θ2​)θ˙2​

Q3. The equations of motion for a robot can be summarized as

\tau = M(\theta) \ddot{\theta} + c(\theta,\dot{\theta}) + g(\theta)τ=M(θ)θ¨+c(θ,θ˙)+g(θ).

If the equation for the first joint is

\tau_1 = term1 + term2 + term3 + …τ1​=term1+term2+term3+…

Q4. which of the following terms, written in terms of (\theta,\dot{\theta},\ddot{\theta})(θ,θ˙,θ¨), could not be one of the terms on the right-hand side of the equation? (The value kk is not a function of (\theta,\dot{\theta},\ddot{\theta})(θ,θ˙,θ¨) and could represent constants like link lengths, masses, or inertias, as needed to get correct units.) Select all that apply.

  • k\ddot{\theta}_2 \cos(\theta_1)¨2​cos(θ1​)
  • k\ddot{\theta}_1 \dot{\theta}_1¨1​θ˙1​
  • k\sin \theta_3ksinθ3​
  • k\dot{\theta}_1 \dot{\theta}_2 \sin \theta_2˙1​θ˙2​sinθ2​
  • k \dot{\theta}_1 \sin \theta_2˙1​sinθ2

Quiz 02: Lecture Comprehension, Lagrangian Formulation of Dynamics (Chapter 8 through 8.1.2, Part 2 of 2)

  • k \dot{\theta}_1^2˙12​
  • k \dot{\theta}_1 \dot{\theta}_2˙1​θ˙2​

Q3. One form of the equations of motion is

\tau = M(\theta)\ddot{\theta} + \dot{\theta}^{\rm T} \Gamma(\theta) \dot{\theta} + g(\theta).τ=M(θ)θ¨+θ˙TΓ(θ)θ˙+g(θ).

Which of the following is true about \Gamma(\theta)Γ(θ)? Select all that apply.

  • \Gamma(\theta)Γ(θ) is zero if the mass matrix MM has no dependence on \thetaθ.
  • \Gamma(\theta)Γ(θ) is an n \times nn×n matrix, where nn is the number of joints.
  • \Gamma(\theta)Γ(θ) depends on M(\theta)M(θ) and \dot{\theta}θ˙.

Quiz 04: Lecture Comprehension, Dynamics of a Single Rigid Body (Chapter 8.2, Part 1 of 2)

Q1. How is the center of mass of a rigid body defined?

  • The point at the geometric centroid of the body.
  • The point at the mass-weighted (or density-weighted) centroid of the body.

Q2. If the body consists of a set of rigidly connected point masses, with a frame {b} at the center of mass, what is the wrench \mathcal{F}_bFb​ needed to generate the acceleration \dot{{\mathcal V}}_bV˙b​ when the body’s current twist is \mathcal{V}_bVb​?

An analogous expression for twists is [\mathcal{V}_1][\mathcal{V}_2]-[\mathcal{V}_2][\mathcal{V}_1][V1​][V2​]−[V2​][V1​], the 4×4 se(3)se(3) representation of the Lie bracket of \mathcal{V}_1V1​ and \mathcal{V}_2V2​, sometimes written [{\rm ad}_{\mathcal{V}_1}] \mathcal{V}_2 \in \mathbb{R}^6[adV1​​]V2​∈R6.

Week 02: Modern Robotics, Course 3: Robot Dynamics Coursera Quiz Answers

Quiz 01: Lecture Comprehension, Forward Dynamics of Open Chains (Chapter 8.5)

Q1. To derive the mass matrix M(\theta)M(θ) of an nn-joint open-chain robot, how many times would we need to invoke the recursive Newton-Euler inverse dynamics algorithm?

  • 1 time.
  • nn times.
  • It is not possible to derive the mass matrix from the Newton-Euler inverse dynamics.

Q2. When calculating the mass matrix M(\theta)M(θ) using the Newton-Euler inverse dynamics, which of these quantities must be set to zero? Select all that apply.

  • \thetaθ
  • \dot{\theta}θ˙
  • \ddot{\theta}θ¨
  • The gravitational constant.
  • The end-effector wrench \mathcal{F}_{{\rm tip}}Ftip​.

Quiz 02: Lecture Comprehension, Dynamics in the Task Space (Chapter 8.6)

Q1. Converting the joint-space dynamics to the task-space dynamics requires an invertible Jacobian, as well as the relationships \mathcal{V} = J(\theta)\dot{\theta}V=J(θ)θ˙ and \dot{\mathcal{V}} = J\ddot{\theta} + \dot{J}\dot{\theta}V˙=¨+J˙θ˙, to find \Lambda(\theta)Λ(θ) and \eta(\theta,\mathcal{V})η(θ,V) in \mathcal{F} = \Lambda(\theta) \dot{\mathcal{V}} + \eta(\theta,\mathcal{V})F=Λ(θ)V˙+η(θ,V).

Why do you suppose we left the dependence on \thetaθ, instead of writing it as a dependence on the end-effector configuration T \in SE(3)TSE(3), which would seem to be more aligned with our task-space view?

  • Either TT or \thetaθ could be used; there is no reason to prefer one to the other.
  • The inverse kinematics of an open-chain robot does not necessarily have a unique solution, so we may not know the robot’s full configuration, and therefore the mass properties, given just TT.

Quiz 03: Lecture Comprehension, Constrained Dynamics (Chapter 8.7)

Q1. A serial-chain robot has nn links and actuated joints, but it is subject to kk independent Pfaffian velocity constraints of the form A(\theta)\dot{\theta}=0A(θ)θ˙=0. These constraints partition the nn-dimensional \tauτ space into orthogonal subspaces: a space of forces CC that do not create any forces against the constraints, and a space of forces BB that do not cause any motion of the robot. What is the dimension of each of these spaces?

  • CC is (n-k)(nk)-dimensional and BB is kk-dimensional.
  • CC is nn-dimensional and BB is kk-dimensional.
  • CC is kk-dimensional and BB is (n-k)(nk)-dimensional.
  • CC is kk-dimensional and BB is nn-dimensional.

Q2. Let the constrained dynamics of a robot be \tau = M(\theta)\ddot{\theta} + h(\theta,\dot{\theta}) + A^{\rm T}(\theta)\lambdaτ=M(θ)θ¨+h(θ,θ˙)+AT(θ)λ, where \lambda \in \mathbb{R}^kλ∈Rk. Let P(\theta)P(θ) be the matrix, as discussed in the video, that projects an arbitrary \tau \in \mathbb{R}^nτ∈Rn to P(\theta)\tau \in CP(θ)τC, where the space CC is the same CC from the previous question. Then what is P(\theta) \tauP(θ)τ? Select all that apply.

  • M(\theta)\ddot{\theta} + h(\theta,\dot{\theta}) + A^{\rm T}(\theta)\lambdaM(θ)θ¨+h(θ,θ˙)+AT(θ)λ
  • P(\theta)(M(\theta)\ddot{\theta} + h(\theta,\dot{\theta}))P(θ)(M(θ)θ¨+h(θ,θ˙))
  • P(\theta)(M(\theta)\ddot{\theta} + h(\theta,\dot{\theta})) +A^{\rm T}(\theta)\lambda)P(θ)(M(θ)θ¨+h(θ,θ˙))+AT(θ)λ)

Quiz 04: Lecture Comprehension, Actuation, Gearing, and Friction (Chapter 8.9)

Q1. What is the typical reason for putting a gearhead on a motor for use in a robot?

  • To increase torque (simultaneously reducing the maximum speed).
  • To increase speed (simultaneously reducing the maximum torque).

Q2. Compared to a “direct drive” robot that is driven by motors without gearheads (G=1G=1), increasing the gear ratios has what effect on the robot’s dynamics? Select all that apply.

  • The mass matrix M(\theta)M(θ) is increasingly dominated by the apparent inertias of the motors.
  • The mass matrix M(\theta)M(θ) is increasingly dominated by off-diagonal terms.
  • The mass matrix M(\theta)M(θ) is increasingly dominated by constant terms that do not depend on the configuration \thetaθ.
  • The robot is capable of higher speeds but lower accelerations.
  • The significance of velocity-product (Coriolis and centripetal) terms diminishes.

Question 4

Referring back to Question 3, assume the motion starts at (s, \dot s) = (0, 0)(s,s˙)=(0,0) and follows the maximum acceleration UU for time tt. Then it follows the maximum deceleration LL for time 2t2t. Then it follows UU for time tt. Which of the following best represents the integral curve?

Question 5

Below is a time-optimal time scaling \dot{s}(s)s˙(s) with three switches between the maximum and minimum acceleration allowed by the actuators. Also shown are example motion cones, which may or may not be correct.

Without any more information about the dynamics, which motion cones must be incorrect (i.e., the motion cone is inconsistent with the optimal time scaling)? Select all that are incorrect (there may be more than one).
