Abstract:Parallel manipulators are more energy-efficient and present higher speed/acceleration ratios when compared with serial manipulators. Moreover, reducing their components’ inertia can further improve these performance criteria. However, this design alternative could induce vibrations due to its lighter components. In this case, model-based control design strategies can help the designer to meet high-performance requirements. These strategies require limited-sized models, while the methods for modeling system’s f… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
