This article presents a comprehensive survey of reconfigurable modular robots, which
covers the origin, history, the state of the art, key technologies, challenges, and applications …

Parallel robots are closed-loop mechanisms presenting very good performances in terms of
accuracy, velocity, rigidity and ability to manipulate large loads. They have been used in a …

This paper gives survey of the position analysis, jacobian and singularity analysis, stiffness
analysis, dynamics and applications of serial and parallel robots. Also a detailed …

The development of robotic manipulators and hands that show dexterity, adaptability, and
subtle behavior comparable to human hands is an unsolved research challenge. In this …

The dynamic modeling and robust control for a three-prismatic-revolute-cylindrical (3-PRC)
parallel kinematic machine (PKM) with translational motion have been investigated in this …

A novel parallel robot, dubbed the SDelta, is the subject of this paper. SDelta is a simpler
alternative to both the well-known Stewart–Gough platform (SGP) and current three-limb, full …

The design of a new six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) parallel-kinematics machine (PKM) has
been proposed. Different from the conventional Stewart-Gough platform which has six …

This paper addresses the singularity condition of a broad class of six-degree-of-freedom
three-legged parallel robots that have one spherical joint somewhere along each leg. First …

Recursive matrix relations for kinematics and dynamics analysis of a three-prismatic-
revolute-cylindrical (3-PRC) parallel kinematic machine (PKM) are performed in this paper …

A new three-limb, six-degree-of-freedom (DOF) parallel manipulator (PM), termed a
selectively actuated PM (SA-PM), is proposed. The end-effector of the manipulator can …
