    Analytical Dynamic Analysis of a Kinesthetic Haptic Device
    (Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi, 2018) Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Maaroof, Omar Waleed Najm; Ceccarelli, Marco
    A hybrid-structured kinesthetic haptic device based on an R-CUBE mechanism and a serial spherical wrist mechanism is considered in this article. This device is designed to simulate point-type contacts on the user. Hence, only three-dimensional forces are simulated to the user through the R-CUBE mechanism. This paper presents the quasi-static force analysis, gravity compensation calculations and dynamic analysis of the R-CUBE mechanism to serve for better understanding the capabilities of the mechanism and to be used in haptics controller development in the future studies. Making use of the derived dynamic equations, torque requirements from the actuators are examined for use in the haptic application scenarios.

    Design and Simulation of a Novel Hybrid Leg Mechanism for Walking Machines
    (Springer Verlag, 2018) Demirel, Murat; Carbone, Giuseppe; Ceccarelli, Marco; Kiper, Gökhan
    This 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.
