Evolutionary approaches to robot path planning [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.The ultimate goal in robotics is to create machines which are more independent and rely less on humans to guide them in their operation.

Trajectory Planning in Joint Space for a Pointing Mechanism Based on a Novel Hybrid Interpolation Algorithm and NSGA-II Algorithm

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
In order to improve the motion stability of a pointing mechanism, the trajectory planning and trajectory optimization were conducted. To obtain better motion stability, the jerk is required continuous.

The kinematics of the redundant $N-1$ wire driven parallel robot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We address the kinematics of the redundant $N-1$ wire-driven parallel robot, i.e. a robot with $N > 3$ wires connected at the same point on the platform. The redundancy allows one to increase the workspace size.

Human–Robot Cooperative Strength Training Based on Robust Admittance Control Strategy

open access: yesSensors, 2022
A stroke is a common disease that can easily lead to lower limb motor dysfunction in the elderly. Stroke survivors can effectively train muscle strength through leg flexion and extension training.

Synthesis method of two translational compliant mechanisms with redundant actuation [PDF]

open access: yesMechanical Sciences, 2021
In the fields of electronic packaging, micromanipulation, scanning, and two translational (2T) mechanisms are required, especially with high stiffness, for a large workspace, with good driving stability, and other occasions.

Kinematic, Workspace and Force Analysis of A Five-DOF Hybrid Manipulator R(2RPR)R/SP+RR

open access: yesChinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2022
In the present study, the over-constrained hybrid manipulator R(2RPR)R/SP+RR is considered as the research objective. In this paper, kinematics of the hybrid manipulator, including the forward and inverse position, are analyzed.

Mechanical Design and Analysis of the End-Effector Finger Rehabilitation Robot (EFRR) for Stroke Patients

open access: yesMachines, 2021
Most existing finger rehabilitation robots are structurally complex and cannot be adapted to multiple work conditions, such as clinical and home. In addition, there is a lack of attention to active adduction/abduction (A/A) movement, which prevents ...
