Evaluation of Loop Constraints of General Closed-Chain Linkages

  • Conference paper
Book cover Advances in Robot Kinematics

Abstract

The evaluation of loop constraints is presented for dynamic modeling of general closed-chain systems in terms of a minimum coordinate set. These procedures are based on higher order kinematic relationships between hypothetically open chain reference coordinates(system Lagrangian coordinates) and a set of independent closed-chain coordinates(system generalized coordinates). Three different approaches for determining/ evaluating loop constraints, both numerically and symbolically, are investigated and discussed with respect to their relative computational merits.
