As the population ages, increasingly more individuals experience ankle disabilities caused
by stroke and cerebral palsy. Studies on parallel robots for ankle rehabilitation have been …

This paper focuses on develo** a novel hybrid-haptic (nHH) device with a remote center
of rotation with 4 DOFs (degrees of freedom) intendant to be used as a haptic device. The …

In this paper, the dimensional optimization of a (2 P RR)-R+ 2 R RR (P and R represent the
prismatic and revolute joint, respectively, and the underline indicates that the joint is the …

The curling hexapod robot is different from previous curling robots, which can mimic the
throwing actions of curlers. To ensure its performance, the size and control parameters of the …

Abstract The 3 (UPS)-S fully spherical parallel manipulator is the most famous fully spherical
parallel robot. Therefore, dimensional synthesis of the manipulator to optimize kinematics …

This paper addresses the dimensional-synthesis-based kineto-elastostatic performance
optimization of the delta parallel mechanism. For the manipulator studied here, the main …

The main objective of this work is to study the elastic deformations affecting Delta parallel
robots during machining operations (eg, milling). These deformations always induce errors …

This paper proposes a special non-symmetric topology of a 3PRR planar parallel kinematics
mechanism, which naturally avoids singularity within the workspace and can be utilized for …

PMs with two rotations and one translation (2R1T) have been used as skeletons in various
advanced manufacturing equipment where high accuracy and stiffness are basic …

In this paper, an optimal designed 8-SPU parallel mechanism, acting as a cell of the self-
configurable fixture which is used to support and clamp the thin-walled, large-scale plate …
