Q1. What are the contributions mentioned in the paper "Elasto-geometrical modeling and calibration of redundantly actuated pkms" ?
The main originality of this work is to propose an efficient elasto-geometrical and calibration method that allows the identification of both the geometrical and stiffness parameters of redundantly actuated parallel mechanisms with slender links. The first part of the paper explains the proposed method through its application on a simple redundant planar mechanism.
