Abstract: The results of experimental and analytical studies of the dynamic response of machines with flexible links and connection clearances are presented. These results suggest that both a large amount ...

Abstract: An effective method is presented for modeling the full three-dimensional dynamics of high performance spatial machine systems, including the vibrations of their links, supporting structure and ...

Abstract: A dynamic modeling method is presented for spatial elastic manipulators that can account for a number of their realistic properties, including bearing clearances, actuator dynamics, and control ...
