The methodology of the optimal design for the 6-UPU parallel mechanism (PM) is presented based on genetic algorithms. The optimal index which expressed by Jacobian matrix of the PM is first deduced. An optimal model is established, in which the kinematic dexterity of a parallel mechanism is considered as the objective function. The design space, the limiting length of the electric actuators and the limit angles of universal joints are taken as constraints. The real-encoding genetic algorithm is applied to the optimal design of a parallel mechanism, which is proved the validity and advantage for the optimal design of a similar mechanism.

In this paper, a 3-DOF 3-PRUR parallel mechanism (PM) is chosen for performance analysis and optimal design. First, the mobility of the PM is analyzed by using screw theory. Then, the kinematics of this PM is studied based on the geometrical characteristics and the Jacobian matrix is derived. Furthermore, we research some performance indices with respect to the Jacobian matrix over the whole workspace and nondimensional parameters when the input is given, and their performance atlases are obtained with different inputs. Finally, the optimal design of the PM is determined according to the performance atlases, and some examples are presented.

This paper presents a metamorphic parallel mechanism which can switch its motion between one translation and two rotation (1T2R) motion and pure rotation (3R) motion. This feature stems from a reconfigurable revolute (rR) joint of which the rotation axis can be altered freely. Screw based geometric constraint is used to demonstrate the reconfiguration and mobility. Unified inverse kinematics, Jacobian matrix and motion/force transmissibility are provided using screws. Based on those, singularity loci are illustrated and optimal design of some key parameters are conducted considering both the 1T2R and 3R phases. Trade-off can be made between the maximum singularity-free workspace and transmission performance based on the optimal design results in this paper for specific applications requiring 1T2R and 3R motion.
