Reconfiguration of Stewart platform for varying tasks accentuates the importance for determination of optimum geometry catering to the specified task. The authors in their earlier work (Satheesh et al., 2008) have indicated the non availability of an efficient holistic methodology for determining the optimum geometry. Further, they have proposed a solution using the variable geometry approach t...

For a general Stewart–Gough platform, two rigid bodies connected by six rods attached via spherical joints, it is known that the maximum number of assembly modes can be at most 40 (counting complex modes as well). However, it was not known yet if there exist examples of Stewart–Gough platforms which actually possess 40 real (the only realizable) assembly modes or postures. This article presents...
