“…In concepts of telerobotics [10,11], a telerobot may be translate along flexible tracks or guideways on the space station. Other applications include robotics, cranes, booms, aircraft landing gear, and weapon recoil mechanisms.…”
Formulations of translational kinematic constraints between flexible bodies are developed to model deformation of flexible surfaces that move relative toone another. Three types of flexible translational articulated joints are presented and illustrated in analysis of prototype systems. Global deformation modes and substructure local deformation modes are used in dynamic analysis and compared via numerical examples.

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.
