Flexible multibody system dynamics (MSD) is one of the hot spots and difficulties in modern
mechanics. It provides a powerful theoretical tool and technical support for dynamic …

Traditional modeling methods for digging load of excavators are often computationally
expensive and require prior knowledge of soil parameters, which severely limits their …

This paper proposes a novel modelling approach for a heavy-duty manipulator with parallel–
serial structures connected in series. Each considered parallel–serial structure contains a …

As modern large-capacity excavators, cable shovels provide payload capacities of more
than 100-tons per scoop. The presence of a high dynamic payload combined with the self …

Redundant actuation can improve the performance and ability of parallel manipulator. In
order to deal with coordination and distribution of the driving force of the parallel manipulator …

In order to improve the tracking accuracy of a hydraulic system, an improved ant colony
optimization algorithm (IACO) is proposed to optimize the values of proportional–integral …

This article presents a method for determination of dynamic reaction forces in knuckle boom
cranes. The method is based on the dynamic modelling procedure, which is an extension of …

Hydraulic manipulators are favored because of their high power density and strong
explosive force. As more tasks interact with the environment, better force/motion control …

In this paper, the excavator's dynamic performance is considered together with the study of
its trajectory, stress distribution and vibration. Many researchers have focused their study on …

In this paper, a task space-based methodology for dynamic trajectory planning for digging
process of a hydraulic excavator is presented, with the integration of soil–bucket interaction …
