Control of Swarm Micro-Swimmers in the Low-Reynolds Number Fluid to Reduce Energy Consumption, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Nejat, Hossein (Supervisor)
Abstract
In this study, at first modeling of a self-propelled microrobot and its hydrodynamic effects on flow field are investigated. Then, a cascade controller has been designed for the fully actuated microrobot in order to track the desired time trajectories. Next, in order to design an optimal controller to decrease energy consumption, regardless of tracking the desired orientation trajectory compared to the desired position trajectory, the fully actuated microrobot would change to over actuated microrobot. Thus, it would be able to orient freely itself according to the flow field so that reduce the energy consumption. By applying the optimal controller on the over actuated microrobot, it was...
