Selective Precision Synthesis of the Four-Bar Motion Generator With Prescribed Input Timing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The recently developed Selective Precision Synthesis technique has been extended to the four-bar motion generating mechanism with prescribed input timing. A designer using this method can determine ...
Development of the Variable-Rate Transymmetric Motion With Discretely Vanishing Shock
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In industry when a link, crank, or other mechanical component is to be rotated from one rest position to another, it is necessary to establish appropriate functional relationships for angular ...
Computer-Aided Design of the RSSR Function Generating Spatial Mechanism Using the Selective Precision Synthesis Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Planar function generating mechanisms may be synthesized for a limited number of precision points by carrying out a kinematic inversion about the output link. However, this becomes quite difficult ...
Position, Velocity, and Acceleration Synthesis of the RRSS Spatial Path-Generating Mechanism Using the Selective Precision Synthesis Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The inclusion of velocity and acceleration constraints is a crucial step in the coupling of the dynamics with the kinematics of spatial mechanisms. In this paper, an optimum synthesis technique ...
A Computer-Aided-Design Technique for the Optimum Synthesis of RRSS Path Generating Spatial Mechanisms With Prescribed Input Timing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: With the current emphasis on automation, the need for single actuator mechanical devices that can perform simple repetitive tasks much more economically, energy-efficiently and accurately than ...
Design and Analysis of the HCCC, RCCC, and PCCC Spatial Mechanisms for Function Generation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A computer aided design technique for the synthesis of spatial function generating mechanisms is presented. The Selective Precision Synthesis technique has been extended for the synthesis of the ...
Forward and Inverse Kinematic Solution of the Variable Geometry Truss Robot Based on an N-Celled Tetrahedron-Tetrahedron Truss
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Tetrahedron-Tetrahedron truss (or TT truss for short) has exceptional stability, stiffness, and load-carrying capabilities. Because of this fact, the TT truss is well suited for use as a ...
A Simple and Accurate Method for Determining Large Deflections in Compliant Mechanisms Subjected to End Forces and Moments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Compliant members in flexible link mechanisms undergo large deflections when subjected to external loads. Because of this fact, traditional methods of deflection analysis do not apply. Since the ...
Erratum: “A Simple and Accurate Method for Determining Large Deflections in Compliant Mechanisms Subjected to End Forces and Moments” (ASME Journal of Mechanical Design, 1998, 120, pp. 392–400)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
The Inverse Kinematic Solution of the Tetrahedron Based Variable-Geometry Truss Manipulator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Tetrahedron Based Variable Geometry Truss Manipulator is comprised of a series of tetrahedrons stacked upon one another in a spiraling manner. When one link of each “cell” is made variable ...
