Abstract: The dynamics model of 4-SPS/PS parallel mechanism with a flexible moving platform is formulated based on the equation of motion. Firstly, the dynamics model of flexible moving platform is formulated based on the floating ...

Abstract: Effects of wear and member flexibility on the dynamic performance of a planar five-bar mechanism with joint-clearance are investigated. The equation of motion of the mechanism is derived based on the absolute nodal coordinate ...

Abstract: Effects of flexible body and clearance spherical joint on the dynamic performance of 4-SPS/CU parallel mechanism are analyzed. The flexible moving platform is treated as thin plate based on absolute nodal coordinate ...

Abstract: The influence of the spherical joint with clearance caused by wear on the dynamics performance of spatial multibody system is predicted based on the Archard's wear model and equations of motion of multibody systems. First, ...

Abstract: The dynamic performance of 4-SPS/CU (spherical joint, prismatic joint, cylindrical joint, and universal joint) parallel mechanism considering spherical joint with clearance is developed, and the three-dimensional (3D) wear ...
