Abstract

In view of the urgent demand for rapid assembly and disassembly of temporary modular structures, this paper proposes a parametric generation algorithm that places disassembly feasibility as a core constraint of scheme generation, prior to the verification stage at the end of design. A linkage representation system for geometric, interface, and logic parameters is established, and the feasible region of parameters is defined by the non‑interference disassembly criterion and the connection reuse threshold as hard constraints. On this basis, a hierarchical cooperative strategy for macro‑topology generation and micro‑parameter optimization is proposed, and two‑way information transfer between the two levels is realized via a differentiable surrogate model. A reversibility‑guided reinforcement learning reward function is designed to enable the generator to evaluate the blocking risk of an action on the subsequent disassembly path in real time during the module‑by‑module addition process. A dynamic connector adapter is developed to adaptively match connector parameters according to local stress distribution. Experiments show that, compared with the standard GNN benchmark in three typical temporary scenarios, the algorithm reduces disassembly time by 24.2%-27.2%, the constraint satisfaction rate reaches 93.2%, and the connection reuse rate increases to 86.4%, and the structural safety margin is maintained in the range of 0.38-0.52. The significant advantages of the proposed mechanism in the co‑optimization of disassembly efficiency and structural performance are verified.

Planning a Shared Modular Fixture Layout Across Robotic Disassembly Stages

Stable support remains challenging in robotic disassembly of irregularly shaped products. As components are progressively removed, the available support surfaces, mass distribution, and task loads change throughout the process. A fixture layout designed for one workpiece state may therefore become infeasible at later s...

Feasibility-Driven Assembly and Welding Planning for a Dual-Robot Steel Fabrication Cell

Assembling a welded steel structure with robots requires deciding whether an entire assembly—dozens of parts, each needing a collision-free pick-up, press-fit placement, and welding—is executable at all, and under which positioning of the workpiece. We describe and evaluate the planning system deployed in an industrial...
