AI Technical Summary
Existing automatic driving control technologies fail to adequately consider the risks of road slippage, the physical boundaries of hydraulic actuators, and the dynamic geometric characteristics of articulated vehicle bodies when dealing with complex working conditions in underground mines, resulting in poor vehicle driving stability, limited execution of control commands, and insufficient safety during passage.
The system employs a data acquisition and processing module to acquire environmental and dynamic data, a vehicle dynamics state reconstruction module to calculate the hydraulic actuation capability boundary and the road surface slip energy dissipation state, a dynamic spatial envelope generation module to construct the effective spatial range, and a nonlinear model predictive control module to generate the optimal control sequence, ensuring that the control commands conform to the vehicle's actuation capability and environmental constraints.
It improves the safety and stability of trackless equipment in complex, narrow and low-adhesion mine roadways, avoids accidents caused by side slip or scraping, and improves the accuracy and adaptability of the control system.
