A method to predict the vibration during the motion of the robot arm is proposed considering the robot joint flexibility. The method combines the internal transfer function of the drive system and the identification of parameters under external excitation. Firstly, the dynamics of the robot joint system are modeled by a double inertia elastic system. The joint system transfer function from the electromagnetic torque to the arm vibration is obtained according to the dynamics model. To solve the unknown parameters in the transfer function, a vibration dynamics model of the joint arm under the external forces on the arm is developed. According to this model, the equivalent stiffness, damping and load inertia of the joint can be obtained by the direct parametric method. Then, the vibration spectrum of the robot arm is derived from the motor electromagnetic torque and joint dynamics models were used to predict the vibration spectrum of the robot arm. The experiments were conducted on a single-joint robot testbed, and on an articulated industrial robot. In both experiments, the key parameters in the system were determined by impact experiments. Then, the vibration signal of the arm during the robot motion was obtained by electromagnetic torque prediction. The predicted vibration signals are analyzed in comparison with the actual vibration signals. The experimental results both show the validity of the vibration prediction.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s22166170","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,17]],"date-time":"2022-08-17T22:53:30Z","timestamp":1660776810000},"page":"6170","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Vibration Prediction of the Robotic Arm Based on Elastic Joint Dynamics Modeling"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Jianlong","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Advanced Equipment Intelligent Manufacturing Technology of Yunnan Province, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"},{"name":"School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5174-9834","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dongxiao","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Advanced Equipment Intelligent Manufacturing Technology of Yunnan Province, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"},{"name":"School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"}]},{"given":"Xing","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Advanced Equipment Intelligent Manufacturing Technology of Yunnan Province, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"},{"name":"School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"},{"name":"Yunnan Vocational College of Mechanical and Electrical Technology, Kunming 650203, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5517-2748","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kai","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Advanced Equipment Intelligent Manufacturing Technology of Yunnan Province, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"},{"name":"School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4244-7308","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xiaoqin","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Advanced Equipment Intelligent Manufacturing Technology of Yunnan Province, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"},{"name":"School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Nakayama, Y., Fujikawa, K., and Kobayashi, H.
