RESUMO
This study investigates the independent motion control of a two-degree-of-freedom (Two-DOF) intelligent underwater manipulator. The dynamics model of two-DOF manipulators in an underwater environment is proposed by combining Lagrange's equation and Morison's empirical formulation. Disturbing factors such as water resistance moments, additional mass force moments and buoyancy forces on the intelligent underwater manipulator are calculated exactly. The influence of these factors on the trajectory tracking of the intelligent underwater manipulator is studied through simulation analysis. Based on the design of the sliding mode surface of the PID structure, a new Fuzzy-logic Sliding Mode Control (FSMC) algorithm is presented for the control error and control input chattering defects of traditional sliding mode control algorithm. The experimental simulation results show that the FSMC algorithm proposed in this study has a good effect in the elimination of tracking error and convergence speed, and has a great improvement in control accuracy and input stability.
