Abstract

Due to the rapid progress in developing solutions for industrial applications of robotic manipulators, today it is not sufficient to simply fulfill a given task. Now it is required to solve a given problem in an optimal manner. To this end, not only foundational knowledge about kinematics and dynamics of multi-body systems and robotics sub-disciplines emerging therefrom are required, it also necessitates expertise in numerical optimization.
