This paper presents the modelling and simulation of a six wheeled three body modular robot in MATLAB Simulink. The modules are modelled as an independent differential drive wheeled mobile robot. Velocity and distance were measured using three different configurations: two wheel, four wheel and six wheel configuration. The simulation result was able to predict the response of the modular body in different configurations in terms of velocity and distance with contact forces acting upon it.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
