Kinematic evaluation and forward kinematic problem for Stewart platform based manipulators
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper two methods are presented. The first is a kinematic evaluation method for two different hexapod structures: standard Stewart platform manipulator with extensible struts and second structure with fixed strut lengths but sliding guideways on fixed platform. The second method addresses the forward kinematic problem where different mathematical representations are combined with various optimization algorithms to find a suitable combination that may be utilized in real-time environment. Additionally, we note the existence of equivalent trajectories of the mobile platform and suggest an adaptation to the solving method that, having satisfied certain assumptions, is able to successfully solve the forward kinematic problem in real-time conditions with very high precision.

Kinematic Mapping and Forward Kinematic Problem of a 5-DOF (3T2R) Parallel Mechanism with Identical Limb Structures
The main objective of this paper is to study the Euclidean displacement of a 5-DOF parallel mechanism performing three translation and two independent rotations with identical limb structures-recently revealed by performing the type synthesis-in a higher dimensional projective space, rather than relying on classical recipes, such as Cartesian coordinates and Euler angles. In this paper, Study's...
متن کاملThe (True) Stewart Platform Has 12 Configurations
We consider a Stewart platform and show that it forward kinematics has at most 12 solutions. A first geometrical demonstration is provided which uses the concept of circularity and in a second proof we show that this problem is equivalent to find a system of two planar parallel manipulators with each 6 solutions to the forward kinematic problem. A geometrical construction is provided to constru...
متن کاملDynamic Modeling and Simulation of Stewart Platform
Since a parallel structure is a closed kinematics chain, all legs are connected from the origin of the tool point by a parallel connection. This connection allows a higher precision and a higher velocity. Parallel kinematic manipulators have better performance compared to serial kinematic manipulators in terms of a high degree of accuracy, high speeds or accelerations and high stiffness. Theref...
