Considering the network structure is one of the new approaches in studying stochastic PERT networks (SPN). In this paper, planar networks are studied as a special class of networks. Two structural reducible mechanisms titled arc contraction and deletion are developed to convert any planar network to a series-parallel network structure. In series-parallel SPN, the completion time distribution f...

A novel model-based controller for 6 degree-of-freedom (DOF) hydraulic driven parallel manipulator considering the nonlinear characteristic of hydraulic systems-proportional plus derivative with dynamic gravity compensation controller is presented, in order to improve control performance and eliminate steady state errors. In this paper, 6-DOF parallel manipulator is described as multi-rigid-bod...

When a parallel robot used in scene that requires force control, rapid attitude adjustment, or precise positioning, we need to know the dynamic characteristics of moving platform and motion branch, so it is necessary do analysis robot. In this study, for six-degree-of-freedom mechanism, Newton-Eulerian method model dynamics, then inverse dynamics simulation performed through ADAMS software veri...
