Abstract: To complete trajectory-following control for a manipulator of wheel loaders in a digging process, the kinematics and dynamics models of the manipulator of wheel loaders are built. The trajectory-following controller considering resistance compensation is designed by using computed-torque approach. The kinematics and dynamics models of the manipulator and the controller model are built under Matlab/Simulink environment. The three-dimensional model of ZL50 loader built under Solidworks environment is imported into ADAMS. The results of ADAMS-Matlab co-simulation, show that this control approach can achieve high accuracy in trajectory-following control for a manipulator of wheel loaders.
