Towards Simulating a Mid-size Stewart Platform on a Large Hexapod Simulator
نویسندگان
چکیده
For a recent project on the influence of motion system characteristic on human perception and control behaviour, a dynamic model of the MPI Stewart platform was developed. The model parameters were estimated from measurements involving motion along a circular trajectory and frequency sweeps. Simulation results showed that the model response with optimised parameters was very close to the measured platform response. However, additional measurements are required to identify the platform mass and vertical centre of gravity position correctly. Validation of the dynamic model with platform measurements in heave showed favourable results. The dynamic model of the MPI Stewart platform will be validated further in multiple degrees-of-freedom and will be used in active closed-loop experiments.

Potentials and Limitations of Hexapods in Wheeled Mobile Driving Simulators
This paper deals with the benefits and drawbacks of hexapods in Wheeled Mobile Driving Simulators. Therefore, a large and a small hexapod are considered and investigated in regard to their potential to reduce power, energy, and workspace demand of a Wheeled Mobile Driving Simulator. This is done by employing the hexapod for representing horizontal acceleration cues. Furthermore, the hexapod may...
متن کاملDesign of a Stewart Platform for General Machining Using Magnetic Bearings
Presented are the details of the design of a Stewart Platform, or hexapod, to be used for generalized machining. Because of the nature of the platform, six degree of freedom machining is possible with a fairly large range of motion, and thus is applicable to a relatively large suite of manufacturing tasks including drilling, grinding, milling, welding and others. Further, the platform is inhere...
متن کاملChanges in Pilot Control Behaviour across Stewart Platform Motion Systems
Low-cost motion systems have been proposed for certain training tasks that would otherwise be performed on high-performance full flight simulators. These systems have shorter stroke actuators, lower bandwidth, and higher noise. The influence of these characteristics on pilot perception and control behaviour is unknown, and can be investigated by simulating a model of a simulator with limited ca...
