Book Part Citation - Scopus: 5An Experimental Test Procedure for Validation of Stiffness Model: a Case Study for R-Cube Parallel Mechanism(Springer, 2019) Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Carbone, GiuseppeHaptic device manipulators are used for generating haptic feedback. This feedback is composed of force which is regulated with respect to motion information. Accurate generation of the feedback requires exact position acquisition of the end-effector. Due to the compliant bodies of a manipulator, a stiffness model is needed to predict this position. Previously, Virtual Joint Method was adopted to obtain the stiffness model of an R-CUBE parallel haptic mechanism. In this paper, experimental test setup and experimental procedure are described for validating this stiffness model, its engineering feasibility and soundness of the proposed model.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Structural Compliance Effects on the Accuracy and Safety of a R-Cube Haptic Device(Springer Verlag, 2019) Carbone, Giuseppe; Acinapura, Antonio; Mundo, Domenico; Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet CanThis paper addresses the contribution of structural compliance on stiffness and safety of a R-CUBE Haptic Device. Structural compliance is determined in several poses via FEM analysis and addressed by referring to local and global indices of performance. Results are also compared with evidences from experimental tests. Comparison of numerical and experimental data allows to identify and separate the contributions to the overall compliance that are due to the structural stiffness, and other contributions such as joint clearance, pose and loading conditions.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 3Design and Simulation of a Novel Hybrid Leg Mechanism for Walking Machines(Springer Verlag, 2018) Demirel, Murat; Carbone, Giuseppe; Ceccarelli, Marco; Kiper, GökhanThis paper introduces a novel hybrid structure design that is composed of rigid links and cables for a robotic leg with static walking. The proposed mechanism is characterized by actuated hip joints, passive knee joints and an actuated prismatic foot joint. The foot is the moving platform of the proposed mechanism which possesses pure translational motion due to the passive parallelograms with cables. Kinematic analysis has been worked out for evaluating a typical human-like gait trajectory. A 3-D model has been developed and simulation are made in SolidWorks® environment. Simulation results show that the proposed mechanism is able to perform an ovoid walking cycle of a foot point and the computed actuator torques and forces are in a feasible range for a low-cost and easy-operation design. The simulation results will be used for a prototype construction in a future work.
