Modelling, Simulation and Vibration Analysis of Transmission line Inspection Robot based on Mass Spring Damper Concept

摘要

This paper investigates the modeling, simulation and vibration analysis of power transmission line robot modeled based on mass spring damper concept. The robot was design to move along the transmission line with the help of two rollers. The transmission line was assumed to oscillate as the robot moves, thereby generating a disturbance to the robot. A pulse input signal was used as the disturbance to assess the behavior of the robot. Comparative assessments have shown that the vertical position and angular orientation of the robot are dependent on the magnitude of the input disturbance and the weight of the robot.
