This book has evolved from the passionate desire of the authors in using the modern
concepts of multibody dynamics for the design improvement of the machineries used in the …

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 …

In this paper, the inverse dynamics of the 6-dof out-parallel manipulator is formulated by
means of the principle of virtual work and the concept of link Jacobian matrices. The …

This paper presents a comparison study on the conditioning, velocity, payload and stiffness
performance of three planar 3-DOF parallel manipulators with 4-RRR, 3-RRR and 2-RRR …

This paper presents a comparison study on the dynamics of three planar 3-DOF parallel
manipulators, one with 3-RRR structure, and the other two with 2-RRR and 4-RRR …

The dynamic formulation and performance evaluation of the redundant parallel manipulator
are presented in this paper. By means of the principle of virtual work and the concept of link …

Abstract As reviewed in Chap. 2, Newton-Euler (NE) equations of motion are found to be
popular in dynamic formulations. Several methods were also proposed by various …

In this paper, a novel approach is proposed to analyze the inverse dynamics of a 3-PRS
(Prismatic, Revolute, Spherical) parallel mechanism. The dynamic equations of the actuated …

Recursive matrix relations for kinematics and dynamics analysis of two known parallel
mechanisms: the spatial 3-PRS and the planar 3-RRR are established in this paper …

Many engineering optimization problems are multi-objective, constrained and have
uncertainty in their inputs. For such problems it is desirable to obtain solutions that are multi …
