- This paper deals with multi-robots grasping problem. We present an optimal force distribu- tion strategy for holding and manipulating objects by multiples manipulators. The force distribution issue is formulated in terms of a nonlinear programming problem under equality and inequality constraints. In particular, the friction constrains are transformed from non linear inequalities into a combination of linear equalities and linear inequalities. As a result, the original nonlinear constrained programming problem is then transformed into a quadratic optimization problem. The dynamical model of multi-robot cooperation has been used for determining force control distribution through proportional derivative (PD) controller. Simulation has been performed and some results are presented and discussed.
