    Enumeration and Instantaneous Mobility Analysis of a Class of 3-Upu Parallel Manipulators With Equilateral Triangular Platforms
    (Cambridge University Press, 2022) Boztaş, Sercan; Kiper, Gökhan
    In this study, several joint axis orientations on equilateral platforms and the limbs of 3-UPU parallel manipulators (PMs) are examined. The generated joint layouts for the platforms were matched with each other to generate and enumerate manipulator architectures based on certain assumptions. The structures of thus obtained manipulators are examined and limb types were determined. These limb types were analyzed using screw theory. The instantaneous mobility of the manipulators and the motion characteristics of the moving platforms are tabulated. The finite mobility analysis of one of the manipulators is performed using a software package as an example. Among several different 3-UPU PM architectures, 118 novel 3-UPU PMs with non-parasitic 3-degrees-of-freedom are significantly important. The classified 3-UPU PMs with determined motion characteristics can be used by researchers as a design alternative for their specific design task. © The Author(s) 2021.

    Kinematic and Dynamic Analysis of a New Type of Spatial 6-Dof Parallel Structure Manipulator
    (China Machine Press, 2004) Alizade, Rasim; Bayram, Çağdaş
    This paper addresses the dynamics and kinematics of a 6xUPS type parallel structure manipulator that consists of six branches and a platform. The problem of forward and inverse displacement analysis is considered on the base of solution of the forward displacement problem for each UPS branch as a serial manipulator. Basic dynamics equations have also been considered. The values of reduced moments and forces have been determined that provides the required input forces and moments. Thus, we deal with inverse dynamics problems. Dynamic model of this type of spatial manipulator is described by a system of six non-linear differential equations of second order with applying Lagrange-Euler methods.
