Using Singularities of Parallel Manipulators to Enhance the Rigid Body Replacement Design Method of Compliant Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The rigidbody replacement method is often used when designing a compliant mechanism. The stiffness of the compliant mechanism, one of its main properties, is then highly dependent on the initial choice of a rigidbody ...
Natural Frequency Computation of Parallel Robots
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The characterization of the elastodynamic behavior and natural frequencies of parallel robots is a crucial point. Accurate elastodynamic models of parallel robots are useful at both their design and control stages in order ...
A Simplified Morphing Blade for Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The aim of designing wind turbine blades is to improve the power capture ability. Since rotor control technology is currently limited to controlling rotational speed and blade pitch, an increasing concern has been given ...
Kinematic Analysis of the 3 RPS Cube Parallel Manipulator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The 3RPS cube parallel manipulator, a threedegreeoffreedom parallel manipulator initially proposed by Huang and Fang (1995, “Motion Characteristics and Rotational Axis Analysis of Three DOF Parallel Robot Mechanisms,†...
Multi Objective Robust Optimization Using a Postoptimality Sensitivity Analysis Technique: Application to a Wind Turbine Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Toward a multiobjective optimization robust problem, the variations in design variables (DVs) and design environment parameters (DEPs) include the small variations and the large variations. The former have small effect on ...
