Closed-Form Inverse Kinematic Analysis of Variable-Geometry Truss Manipulators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A variety of applications for variable-geometry truss manipulators (VGTMs) have been demonstrated or proposed in the literature. Most of these applications require solution to the inverse kinematic ...
Application of New Homotopy Continuation Techniques to Variable Geometry Trusses
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A VGT, or Variable Geometry Truss, can be thought of as a statically determinate truss that has been modified to contain some number of variable length members. These extensible members allow ...
