Article Title:Modeling robot psycho-physical state and reactions - A new option in human-robot communication - Part 2: Modeling and simulation

Abstract:
This part of the paper examines numerically the possibility of modeling robot fatigue being representative of a human psychophysical state that can be applied to robots. Temperatures of driving motors are suggested as analogs to fatigue in muscles. Simulation of robot behavior is performed on a typical human task, namely handwriting. Three phases of task execution, characteristic for humans, are observed, i.e. regular motion, reconfiguration after symptoms of fatigue, and degeneration caused by the too long, hard work.
