Article A Hybrid Control Scheme for Backdriving a Surgical Robot About a Pivot Point(MDPI, 2025) Dede, Mehmet Ismet Can; Kurt, A. N. Olcay; Deniz, Mehmet FiratAn incision point acts as the pivot point when a minimally invasive surgery procedure is applied. The assistive robot arms employed for such operation must have the capability to perform a remote center of motion (RCM) at this pivot point. Other than designing RCM mechanisms, a common practice is to use a readily available spatial serial robot arm and control it to impose this RCM constraint. When this assistive robot is required to be backdriven by the surgeon, the relation between the interaction forces/moments and the motion with RCM constraint becomes challenging. This paper carefully formulates a hybrid position/force control scheme for this relationship when any readily available robot arm that is coupled with a force/torque sensor is used for an RCM task. The verification of the formulation is carried out on a readily available robot arm by implementing the additional constraints that are derived from a surgical robot application.Book Part Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Calibration Study of a Continuously Variable Transmission System Designed for Phri(Springer, 2020) Mobedi, Emir; Dede, Mehmet Ismet CanVariable stiffness actuators (VSAs) have been used in many applications of physical human-robot interfaces (pHRI). A commonly employed design is the spring-based VSA allowing the user to regulate the output force mechanically. The main design criteria of these actuation systems are the adjustment of output force independent from the output motion, and shock absorbing. In our recent work, we implemented certain modifications on the two-cone friction drive continuously variable transmission system (CVT) so that the CVT can be employed in pHRI systems. Subsequently, the optimized prototype is developed. In this study, we introduce the prototype of this new CVT systems, and its force calibration tests. The results indicate that the manufactured CVT is capable of displaying the desired output force throughout its transmission ratio range within a tolerance.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Alternating Error Effects on Decomposition Method in Function Generation Synthesis(Springer Verlag, 2017) Maaroof, Omar W.; Dede, Mehmet Ismet Can; Kiper, GokhanIn approximate function generation synthesis methods, error between the desired function's output and designed mechanism's output oscillate about zero error while crossing the zero error margin at precision points. The common goal of these methods is to minimize the error within the selected working region of the mechanism. For mechanisms like Bennett overconstrained six-revolute jointed linkages that have relatively large number of construction parameters, it is a difficult task to solve for them at once. Decomposition method enables to divide such linkages into two loops and independently solve for each loop with less construction parameters. Although some approximation methods are proven to produce smaller errors than others for a single-loop synthesis, in this work, it is shown that smaller errors are not guaranteed for a certain method when used along with decomposition method. Numerical examples indicate that in decomposition method, more attention should be given to the alternation of the error of each decomposed mechanism, rather than the approximation method used.
