Abstract: The experimental validation of an accurate dynamic model of flexible multi-body planar mechanisms is presented in this paper. The proposed mathematical model, which is valid for whatever planar ...

Abstract: Chatter is an undesired phenomenon of self-excited vibrations that occurs during many machining operations. This paper analyzes mode coupling chatter from the point-of-view of the system theory. ...

Abstract: In order to develop an efficient and fast position control for robotic manipulators, vibration phenomena have to be taken into account. Vibrations are mainly caused by the flexibility of ...
