    Computation Time Efficient Stiffness Analysis of the Modified R-Cube Mechanism
    (Springer, 2019) Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    Parallel manipulators are known to be more stiff than the serial manipulators. However, modeling the stiffness for parallel manipulators are difficult compared to serial manipulators due to the constrained structure and passive joints. In addition, computation of the stiffness model for parallel manipulators are exhausting since it requires an iterative solution algorithm due requirement of force-position convergence of all serial chains connecting to the same mobile platform. Direct solutions are faster however, they lack in accuracy. In this study, direct solution is preferred for real-time application and analytic stiffness model of the modified R-CUBE mechanism is obtained by using Virtual Joint Method (VJM). The finite element (FE) model is constructed and simulated to validate the analytical model. Then, a combination of external wrenches $$\pm 5$$ N in various directions are applied on the mobile platform in both FE and VJM in some critical poses. Finally, the computed numerical results are listed and compared along with their computation times. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019

    Structural 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 Can
    This 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.

    A Critical Review of Unpowered Performance Metrics of Impedance-Type Haptic Devices
    (Springer Verlag, 2019) Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Kiper, Gökhan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    A kinesthetic haptic device’s performance relies on unpowered, powered and controlled system characteristics. In this paper, a critical review is carried out for the well-known metrics for kinematics, stiffness and dynamic aspects of robots that can be applied in evaluating the unpowered system performance of kinesthetic haptic devices. The physical meanings of these metrics are discussed and the important factors that affect the unpowered system performance of a kinesthetic haptic device are revealed.
