Robot model moving itself #3
Comments
Thanks for your contribution. I've made some experiments myself (see below). The short summary is that I cannot see a change in behavior after applying your suggestions. Also note that you reduced the friction; by default it's 1.0, you reduced it to 0.4. I've also let the simulation run for 2 minutes and 18 seconds (simulation time). Nothing special about that value, it's just the time after which I killed the first simulation. I've included the output of the no modification (current

Hey. Pretty old issue, but I also faced that problem recently. In my case, it was visible after ~30min and the robot rotated for ~4 degrees in the Z-axis. In my case, I changed the robot's model to fit my purposes, but the simulation part was left unchanged. Changing friction slowed down the rotation, but not stopped. |
First of, I should mention that we did re-enable In response to you comment: 4 degrees in 30 minutes don't sound much. However, if you find any parameters that improve the situation, feel free to open a pull request! |
I tried this repository for a research purpose. After some time playing with it, I noticed that mobile base is moving, even if
/cmd_vel
topic is empty. The base is also moving very slowly right after enabling physics engines in gazebo.I have done some review of a urdf model and all launch files, and I've noticed that it might be caused by disabling friction for wheels. I tried to change it, and if I set it in this way (in file
mir_100.gazebo.xacro
)and small modification in
mir_100_v1.urdf.xacro
then the model was still.
I haven't calculated friction coefficients, I just have used arbitrary chosen values (for which simulator seems to be stable).
