Abstract: Force/positionhybridcompliantcontrollawwasproposedtoweakentheeffectonspacemanipulatorwhenanactivedevicewasinvolvedinacollisionwithapassivedevice.Firstly,usingthesecondkindofLagrangeequations,thefloatingbasespacemanipulatorkinematicsanddynamicsmodelwereconstructedconsideringthecontactenvironment.Secondly,apole-conetyperefuelingdevicewasgiven.Accordingtothecontactcharacteristicsoftheactiveandpassivedevice,apoint-surfacecontactcollisiondynamicsmodelwasestablished,andthecorrespondingcollisionforcecalculationmethodwasgiven.Then,refuelingdockingproblemwasformulatedforspacecraft-referencedendpointmotioncontrolproblem.Onthisbasis,thedesiredmanipulatorend-pointtrajectorywasplannedandthepositionloopcontrollawwasproposed.Thecollisionforcewasobtainedaccordingtothepositionbetweentherefuelingactiveandpassivedevices,andtheforce/torqueloopcontrollawwasproposed.Furthermore,combinedwithadaptationselectionmatrix,theforce/positionhybridcontrollerwasobtainedtoreducethecollisionimpactonspacerobot.Finally,simulationresultsshowthatthedockingdirectionpositionerrorreducestozerofromtheinitialvalue,andthecollisionforceislessthan10Nduringdocking,andjointtorquedoesnotexceed13Nm.Theactiveandpassivedevicescompletecompliantcontractbythedesignedforce/positionhybridcontroller.
