Stiffness Modeling of 3-PRS Mechanism
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposed a stiffness analysis method for a 3-PRS mechanism for welding thick aluminum plate using FSW technology. In the molding process, elastic deformation of lead-screws and links are taken into account. This method is based on the virtual work principle. Through a survey of the commonly used stiffness performance indices, the minimum and maximum eigenvalues of the stiffness matrix are used to evaluate the stiffness of the 3-PRS mechanism. Furthermore, A FEA model has been constructed to verify the method. Finally, we redefined the workspace using the stiffness analysis method. Keywords—3-PRS, parallel mechanism, stiffness analysis, workspace.

متن کاملAn Approach for Stiffness Modelling of Lower Mobility Parallel Manipulators using the Generalized Jacobian
This paper presents an approach for stiffness modelling of the lower mobility parallel manipulators using the generalized Jacobian. The approach can be implemented by two steps:(1) The first order deflection analysis by decomposing twist space of the end-effector into a pair of complementary twist subspaces associated with the permitted and restricted instantaneous motions, (2) The kinestatic a...

متن کاملForce/Motion/Stiffness Transmissibility Analyses of Redundantly Actuated and Overconstrained Parallel Manipulators
Drawing mainly on linear algebra and screw theory, this paper presents a general and systematic approach for force/motion/stiffness transmissibility analyses of redundantly actuated and overconstrained parallel manipulators. A set of normalized transmission indices is proposed for representing the closeness to singularities as well as for dimensional optimization of the redundantly actuated and...
