Preface

The idea of this book emanates from my Ph.D. thesis that I, wrote at the University of Luxembourg, defended in January 2016. The book addresses one of the vital robotic applications in industry, the assembly processes. In this book force-guided (or force-controlled) robots are considered and the required skills in realizing the force-guided robotic assembly processes are studied. More precisely, this book covers developing novel Contact-State (CS) modeling, control strategy, and environment position localization (position searching) for force-guided robotic assembly processes of rigid and flexible objects. For the CS modeling, the wrench (Cartesian force and torque) signals of the manipulated object are captured for different phases of the considered assembly processes and using the Expectation Maximization-based Gaussian Mixtures Model (EM-GMM), a recognizer is developed for each CS of the assembly. The
