KINEMATICS OF A TRANSLATION-ROTATION HYBRID PARALLEL ROBOT
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2015, Vol 60, Issue 3
Abstract
Matrix relations for kinematics analysis of a spatial two-module hybrid parallel mechanism are established in this paper. Knowing the relative motions of the moving platforms, the inverse kinematics problem is solved based on a set of connectivity relations. Finally, compact results and graphs of simulation for the input relative displacements, velocities and accelerations are obtained.

PREDICTION OF THE FORMING LIMIT CURVES USING GTN DAMAGE MODEL
In this paper, the forming limit curve of an AA6016-T4 sheet metal is constructed using Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN), Marciniak-Kuczynski (M-K) and Modified Maximum Force Criterion (MMFC) models. The mechanical behav...
ON THE DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR OF ELASTIC FRAME STRUCTURES WITH BASE IMPOSED HARMONIC DISPLACEMENT
The dynamic response of an elastic shear frame structure to imposed lateral harmonic displacement of the base slab is analyzed within frequency ranges placed below and above natural frequencies. It is shown that between...
GIANT RESPONSE OF MICROBUBBLE CONTRAST AGENTS OSCILLATION IN A HIGH-INTENSITY FOCUSED ULTRASOUND FIELD
The interaction of microbubble contrast agents (BR14) with high-intensity focused ultrasound is investigated by high-speed photography. The experiments were conducted at an ultrasound frequency of 1.08 MHz with a peak ne...
TRENDS IN SURGICAL ROBOTICS
Surgical Robotics today is essentially about two families of devices, namely telemanipulators and simulators for mini-invasive (endoscopic) procedures. In both cases, the user-interface, i.e. the “joystick” to be manipul...
DISCRETE MATHEMATICAL FILTERS OF VIDEO INFORMATION PROCESSING FOR AUTOMATIC IMAGE COMPONENTS DETECTION AND MARKING
In this paper we shall discretize two classes of mathematical filters intended for the video image analysis with the purpose to automatically detect and mark the components that these images contain. Unlike the classical...
