This paper deals with the structure synthesis and reconfiguration analysis of variable-DOF (variable-degree-of-freedom) single-loop mechanisms with prismatic joints based on a …
Current design models and frameworks describe various overlapping fragments of designing. However, little effort exists in consolidating these fragments into an integrated …

A method for designing asymmetric multi-mode parallel mechanism is proposed. Parallel mechanisms with 2R1T and 2T1R motion modes are synthesized by using displacement …
The branches of motion in the configuration space of a reconfigurable linkage can intersect in different ways leading to different types of singularities. In the vast majority of reported …
This paper for the first time reveals a set of special plane-symmetric Bricard linkages with various branches of reconfiguration by means of intersection of two generating toroids, and …
