Performance optimization of parallel manipulators (PMs) have attracted adequate attention
in recent years. It mainly concerns performance indices, optimization algorithms and …

This paper presents an analytical approach for the dimensional synthesis of the 3-DOF Delta
parallel robot for a prescribed workspace. The dimensional synthesis of parallel robots is a …

This paper presents the implementation of the floating frame of reference formulation to
model the flexible multibody dynamics of a nonsymmetric planar 3PRR parallel manipulator …

This paper presents a novel walking hybrid-kinematics robot that can be reconfigured to
have three, five, and six degrees of freedom (DOFs) for adsorption machining of large …

This paper presents the implementation of nonlinear least squares and iterative linear least
squares algorithms for external kinematic calibration of a hybrid kinematics machine …

In a discrete job-shop, the scheduling objectives are often conflicting and constrained, and
the actual production is disturbed by many uncertainties. This paper combines bi-directional …

Passive gravity compensation technologies based on counterweight and torsional springs is
rarely discussed due to the unavailability of an exact mathematical manipulation to …

This paper focuses on the design, analysis, and multi-objective optimization of a novel 5-
degrees of freedom (DOF) double-driven parallel mechanism. A novel 5-DOF parallel …

Aiming at the aircraft composite skin grinding, a Three-DOF Asymmetrical Mechanism (TAM)
is proposed to replace manual grinding. Considering asymmetrical characteristics of the …

This paper investigates a comparative kinematic analysis between nonredundant and
redundant 2-Degree Of Freedom parallel manipulators. The nonredundant manipulator is …
