Abstract
Background
For the fracture reduction robot, the position tracking accuracy and compliance are affected by dynamic loads from muscle stretching, uncertainties in robot dynamics models, and various internal and external disturbances.
Methods
A control method that integrates a Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN) with Nonlinear Disturbance Observer is proposed to enhance position tracking accuracy. Additionally, an admittance control is employed for force tracking to enhance the robot's compliance, thereby improving the safety.
Results
Experiments are conducted on a long bone fracture model with simulated muscle forces and the results demonstrate that the position tracking error is less than ±0.2 mm, the angular displacement error is less than ±0.3°, and the maximum force tracking error is 26.28 N. This result can meet surgery requirements.
Conclusions
The control method shows promising outcomes in enhancing the safety and accuracy of long bone fracture reduction with robotic assistance.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery provides a cross-disciplinary platform for presenting the latest developments in robotics and computer assisted technologies for medical applications. The journal publishes cutting-edge papers and expert reviews, complemented by commentaries, correspondence and conference highlights that stimulate discussion and exchange of ideas. Areas of interest include robotic surgery aids and systems, operative planning tools, medical imaging and visualisation, simulation and navigation, virtual reality, intuitive command and control systems, haptics and sensor technologies. In addition to research and surgical planning studies, the journal welcomes papers detailing clinical trials and applications of computer-assisted workflows and robotic systems in neurosurgery, urology, paediatric, orthopaedic, craniofacial, cardiovascular, thoraco-abdominal, musculoskeletal and visceral surgery. Articles providing critical analysis of clinical trials, assessment of the benefits and risks of the application of these technologies, commenting on ease of use, or addressing surgical education and training issues are also encouraged. The journal aims to foster a community that encompasses medical practitioners, researchers, and engineers and computer scientists developing robotic systems and computational tools in academic and commercial environments, with the intention of promoting and developing these exciting areas of medical technology.
