There is substantial interest in the development of man-portable unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) to perform surveillance in urban environments. Many studies have been done on the control logic needed to guide the vehicles in autonomous and semi-autonomous modes. Less work has been done to assess the effectiveness of the controlled inputs on mobility performance.A challenging mobility requirement for urban robots is to ascend stairs, including landings. Advanced multibody dynamics software is used to identify the mobility limits of a typical tracked robot during stair climbing maneuvers. Torque control is used to improve the dynamic behavior of the tracked robot.
