An historical review of the theoretical development of rigid body displacements from Rodrigues parameters to the finite twist

TL;DR: The development of the finite twist has attracted much attention in the field of theoretical kinematics and the proposed q-pitch with the tangent of half the rotation angle has demonstrated an elegant use in the study of rigid body displacements as discussed by the authors.

A Comparison of Representations of General Spatial Screw Displacement

TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of eight methods of representing a general spatial rigid-body screw displacement is made between point transformations and line transformations, and the most commonly used representation is the 4 × 4 real matrix and the conclusion is that this is certainly the best of the point transformations.

Kinematics of spatial linkages by group algebra: A structure-based approach

TL;DR: In this article, the theoretical fundamentals for a structure-based, unified approach to the kinematics of spatial linkages are presented according to the subdivision of rigid displacements into elementary subspaces of known properties.

A unified representation of spatial displacements

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that finite screw displacements can be obtained by integration of an associate differential equation for the infinitesimal screw displacement, which is based on the screw displacement pair, the dual-number extension of the rotational displacement pair.
