Kinematics of Serial Manipulators
نویسنده
چکیده
This article deals with the kinematics of serial manipulators. The serial manipulators are assumed to be rigid and are modeled using the well-known Denavit-Hartenberg parameters. Two well-known problems in serial manipulator kinematics, namely the direct and inverse problems, are discussed and several examples are presented. The important concept of the workspace of a serial manipulator and the approaches to determine the workspace are also discussed.

Inverse Kinematics Resolution of Redundant Cooperative Manipulators Using Optimal Control Theory
The optimal path planning of cooperative manipulators is studied in the present research. Optimal Control Theory is employed to calculate the optimal path of each joint choosing an appropriate index of the system to be minimized and taking the kinematics equations as the constraints. The formulation has been derived using Pontryagin Minimum Principle and results in a Two Point Boundary Value Pr...

This paper introduces a novel method for Cartesian trajectory and performance optimization control of kinematically-redundant trussbased manipulators (TBMs), The Virtual Serial Manipulator Approach. The approach is to model complex in-parallel-actuated TBMs as simpler kinematically-equivalent virtual serial manipulators. Standard control methods for kinematically-redundant serial manipulators c...
متن کاملDifferential Kinematics of Serial Manipulators Using Virtual Chains
This paper presents a new approach to calculate the direct and inverse differential kinematics for serial manipulators. The approach is an extension of the Davies method for open kinematic chains based on a virtual kinematic chain concept introduced in this paper. It is a systematic method that unifies the kinematics of serial manipulators considering the type of kinematics and the coordinate s...
متن کاملEstimation model for kinematic calibration of manipulators with a parallel structure
This paper provides an estimation model for calibrating the kinematics of manipulators with a parallel geometrical structure. Parameter estimation for serial link manipulators is well developed, but fail for most structures with parallel actuators, since the forward kinematics is usually not analytically available for these. We extend parameter estimation to such parallel structures by developi...
