    Experimental Structural Stiffness Analysis of a Surgical Haptic Master Device Manipulator
    (American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2021) Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Carbone, Giuseppe
    This paper deals with haptic devices for master-slave telesurgical applications. Namely, a stiffness model fitting methodology and its fine-tuning are proposed based on experimental results. In particular, the proposed procedure is based on virtual joint structural stiffness modeling to be applied in time-efficient compliance compensation strategies. A specific case study is discussed by referring to the HISS haptic device that has been developed and built at Izmir Institute of Technology. Two different experimental setups are designed for stiffness evaluation tests. Experimental results are discussed to demonstrate their implementation in the proposed methodology for the fine-tuning of stiffness model.

    Function Generation Synthesis of Planar Slider-Crank Linkages for Given 3 Positions and a Dead-Center Position
    (Springer Verlag, 2020) Kiper, Gokhan; Gorgulu, Ibrahimcan; Kucukoglu, Sefa Furkan
    Function generation for finitely many positions and dead-center design problems are generally separately handled in the literature. This paper presents a mixed formulation for planar slider-crank linkages where three precision points and a folded or extended dead-center position are to be satisfied. The formulation results in an 8th degree univariate. Examples show that generally there are four real solutions, only two of which result in distinct solutions.

    A New Stiffness Performance Index: Volumetric Isotropy Index
    (MDPI, 2019) Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    A new index for a precise calculation of a manipulator's stiffness isotropy is introduced. The proposed index is compared with the conventionally used stiffness isotropy index by making use of the investigation on R-CUBE manipulator. The proposed index is shown to produce relatively more precise results from which a higher number of isotropic poses are detected.

    Time Efficient Stiffness Model Computation for a Parallel Haptic Mechanism Via the Virtual Joint Method
    (Elsevier, 2020) Carbone, Giuseppe; Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    Haptic devices are used for displaying a range of mechanical impedance values to the user. This impedance is regulated by a real-time control loop depending on the position information of the end-effector, which is usually acquired indirectly by using forward kinematics equations. Nevertheless, the kinematic model is insufficient to obtain accurate values if there are non-negligible compliant displacements. This gives a strong motivation for implementing a real-time stiffness model in the haptic control loop for improving its accuracy. Additionally, stiffness performance indices can be used at the design stage for enhancing the haptic devices impedance range within optimal design procedures. Fast solutions of a stiffness model are required for a real-time control as well as for decreasing the optimization time during a design process with a trade-off between accuracy and computational costs. In this study, we propose a computation time-efficient stiffness analysis of a parallel haptic device mechanism. The accuracy and computational costs of the proposed model are calculated and compared with a model that is obtained via a finite element method to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach with the desired real-time and accuracy performance.

    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.

    Experimental Evaluation of Actuation and Sensing Capabilities of a Haptic Device
    (Springer, 2019) Mobedi, Emir; Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    Haptic devices are used to increase the telepresence level by providing the sense of touch to the human operator. Simultaneously, they capture the targeted motion of the human operator to generate a motion demand for the teleoperated slave system. Considering a scenario where the slave system’s end-effector is handled by the human operator at the master side, which is attached to the haptic device, an ideal haptic interaction involves the feeling of only the end-effector dynamics and the accurate sensation of the end-effector pose. The performance of a haptic device is based on these two functionalities. In this paper, the experimental evaluation of the actuation and sensing capabilities of a haptic device, HIPHAD v1.0 kinesthetic haptic device, is presented.

    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.
