Group-theoretical methods in manipulator kinematics and symbolic computations

TL;DR: Through the vector parametrization of the space motions, DKP and IKP take more efficient forms and this efficiency is increased by using symbolic computations.

Computer-aided modelling and simulation of mechanisms and manipulators

TL;DR: Two original applications are presented: a program for modelling spatial single-loop robot arms that works as a precompiler of manipulators and reaches an automatic, symbolic, closed-form solution to the inverse position analysis, and an approach to friendly training in computer-aided mechanism design through hypertext.

Generation automatique et simplification des equations litterales des systemes mecaniques articules

TL;DR: This paper presents a method of automatic generation and simplification of literal equations for modeling articulated mechanisms based both upon a formal representation leading to easy implementation on a micro-computer and a very careful design of the symbolic calculus modules constituting the software.

Cranking planar mechanisms on a microcomputer

TL;DR: A new method for analyzing the motion of planar mechanisms with an arbitrary number of members and degrees of freedom using the complex vector notation introduced by Raven to derive the kinematic equations for the position, the velocity and the acceleration of the whole mechanism in matrix form.
