获得大工作空间是并联机构设计中的一个重要目标,利用3种优化算法对并联机构工作空间体积进行优化,以6自由度机构6-RSS为例,建立优化模型,分析比较优化算法的性能。考察的性能指标主要有优化效果、数值稳定性、时间效率。涉及到的优化算法包括多岛遗传算法、广义简约梯度法、序列二次规划法,后两种算法在应用时与试验设计(Design of experiment,DOE)方法进行集成。试验分析表明,DOE结合局部优化算法的改进型优化方法有明显优势,优化后6-RSS并联机构的工作空间体积增加为原来的2.59倍,优化时间仅为多岛遗传算法的1/5,优化结果稳定。
Immersion and interaction are two key features of virtual reality systems, which are especially impor- tant for medical applications. Based on the requirement of motor skill training in dental surgery, haptic rendering method based on triangle model is investigated in this paper. Multi-rate haptic rendering architecture is proposed to solve the contradiction between fidelity and efficiency requirements. Real- time collision detection algorithm based on spatial partition and time coherence is utilized to enable fast contact determination. Proxy-based collision response algorithm is proposed to compute surface contact point. Cutting force model based on piecewise contact transition model is proposed for dental drilling simulation during tooth preparation. Velocity-driven levels of detail haptic rendering algorithm is proposed to maintain high update rate for complex scenes with a large number of triangles. Haptic- visual collocated dental training prototype is established using half-mirror solution. Typical dental op- erations have been realized including dental caries exploration, detection of boundary within dental cross-section plane, and dental drilling during tooth preparation. The haptic rendering method is a fun- damental technology to improve immersion and interaction of virtual reality training systems, which is useful not only in dental training, but also in other surgical training systems.
