    Reconfigurable Polyhedral Mechanisms Using Scissor-Like Elements with Cantellation Transformation Between Dual Geometries
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2025) Liao, Yuan; Kiper, Gokhan; Krishnan, Sudarshan
    Deployable polyhedron mechanisms (DPMs) have garnered significant interest in architecture, aerospace, and robotics, where reconfigurable and space-efficient structures are crucial. This paper presents a tangential design method for DPMs using scissor-like elements (SLEs). Scissor units are placed along the edges of an equilateral polyhedron, tangential to its midsphere. This method enables the mechanisms to transform between a polyhedron and its dual, following the cantellation operation. Using screw theory, the kinematic properties of these mechanisms are analyzed. Results show that the DPMs exhibit 1-degree of freedom (DOF) under normal conditions and gain additional DOFs at multifurcation points, allowing for reconfigurable motion modes. Physical models based on various geometries, including Platonic, Archimedean, Johnson, and Catalan solids, help to validate the method's feasibility. Observations indicate that this method is only applicable to equilateral supporting polyhedra. The transformability and reconfigurability observed in these mechanisms demonstrate the potential of this approach for applications in architecture, aerospace, and robotics.

    Redundancy resolution options for the twin-it-romans robotic hybrid manufacturing system
    (Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2025) Gündüz, G.M.; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Kiper, Gökhan; Schmitz, M.; Corves, B.
    The Twinnig Iztech in Robotics Manufacturing System (TWIN-IT-ROMANS) project funded by EU Horizon -Widera-2023-Access-02-01 aims to develop a hybrid manufacturing system that can perform additive and subtractive manufacturing processes and inline quality control using a robotic system. The system will incorporate a 6-degree-of-freedom robot arm and a positioner with 2-degree-of-freedom, which will operate synchronously. This manipulation system is to be designed for performing different manufacturing operations with different degrees-of-freedom requirements. In order to reveal alternative trajectory planning scenarios for this system, this paper presents an initial review of redundancy resolution approaches for kinematically redundant robotic manipulators. First, the four main approaches for redundancy resolution techniques are introduced. Then main studies on energy minimization and stiffness maximization for kinematically redundant robotic manipulators are reviewed. Similar or new approaches are planned to be generated and implemented for the redundant system for hybrid manufacturing. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2025.
