Journal ArticleDOI
On the elastostatic analysis of mechanical systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the stiffness matrix of a parallelogram with flexible linkages, called a Π-joint, is obtained by resorting to the concept of generalized spring, in which each flexible link is replaced with a six-dimensional generalized spring.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the stiffness analysis of robotic manipulators and calculation of stiffness indices
TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduced new performance indices for robotic manipulators in order to evaluate the robot stiffness at the design embodiment stage, based on the calculation of the Cartesian stiffness matrix of a manipulator based on a matrix structural analysis methodology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic analysis of flexible parallel robots via enhanced co-rotational and rigid finite element formulations
TL;DR: This study develops formulations for the dynamic analysis of parallel robots considering the links flexibility based on the Co-rotational and Rigid finite elements, which simplifies the form and derivation of kinetic energy of a flexible link at the cost of assuming the elements to be rigid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of a new cylindrical element formulation in finite element structural analysis of FGM hollow cylinders
TL;DR: In this paper, a finite element formulation is derived for the structural analysis of functionally graded hollow cylinders, which allows for property variations along the thickness, which results in considerable reduction of the required elements and eliminates the need to mesh the cross section of the FG cylinder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Forward dynamic analysis of parallel robots using modified decoupled natural orthogonal complement method
TL;DR: The modified DeNOC (MDeNOC) method is introduced, inspired by the relation between VSM and ALM, which has the ability of dynamic response and constraint reactions calculations with less preparation effort compared to DeN OC, while its accuracy is similar to Lagrange-VSM.
