This article discusses systematically the characterization of instantaneous point-line motions, and the higher-order relationship between a point-line motion and the associated rigid body motions. The transformation of a point-line between two positions is depicted as a pure translation along the point-line followed by a screw displacement about their common normal and expressed with a unit dual quaternion referred to as the point-line displacement operator. The derivatives of the point-line displacement operator characterize the point-line motion to various orders with a set of characteristic numbers. Such a treatment leads to a consistent expression or unified treatment for the transformation of lines, point-lines, and rigid bodies. The relationships between point-line motions and rigid body motions are addressed in detail up to the third order.

This paper presents a study on the higher-order motion of point-lines embedded on rigid bodies. The mathematic treatment of the paper is based on dual quaternion algebra and differential geometry of line trajectories, which facilitate a concise and unified description of the material in this paper. Due to the unified treatment, the results are directly applicable to line motion as well. The transformation of a point-line between positions is expressed as a unit dual quaternion referred to as the point-line displacement operator depicting a pure translation along the point-line followed by a screw displacement about their common normal. The derivatives of the point-line displacement operator characterize the point-line motion to various orders with a set of characteristic numbers. A set of associated rigid body motions is obtained by applying an instantaneous rotation about the point-line. It shows that the ISA trihedrons of the associated rigid motions can be simply depicted with a set of ∞2 cylindroids. It also presents for a rigid body motion, the locus of lines and point-lines with common rotation or translation characteristics about the line axes. Lines embedded in a rigid body with uniform screw motion are presented. For a general rigid body motion, one may find lines generating up to the third order uniform screw motion about these lines.

Mathematical Relationships

A generalized mathematical approach is developed to guide two rigid bodies for simultaneous coordination of their infinitesimally separated positions. Mathematical relationships are developed to incorporate up to fourth-order derivatives while specifying infintesimally separated positions. The approach is demonstrated by considering an eight-link mechanism. It is shown that for a maximum of five precision positions of the two rigid bodies, a maximum of 1024 design solutions are possible.

Planar Motions

A planar rigid body velocity measure based on the instantaneous velocity of all particles that constitute a rigid body is developed. This measure compares the motion of each particle to an “ideal”, but usually unobtainable, motion. This ideal motion is one that would carry each particle from its current position to its desired position on a straight-line path. Although the ideal motion is not a valid rigid body motion, this does not preclude its use as a reference standard in evaluating valid rigid body motions. The optimal instantaneous planar motions for general rigid bodies in translation and rotation are characterized. Results for an example planar positioning problem are presented.

Reference Problem

This paper shows that in the use of Lie groups for the study of the relative motion of rigid bodies some assumptions are not explicitly stated. A commutation diagram is shown which points out the “reference problem” and its simplification to the usual Lie group approach under certain conditions which are made explicit.

During manipulation and locomotion tasks encountered in robotics, it is often necessary to control the relative motion between two contacting rigid bodies. In this paper we obtain the equations relating the motion of the contact points on the pair of contacting bodies to the rigid-body motions of the two bodies. The equations are developed up to the second order. The velocity and acceleration constraints for contact, for rolling, and for pure rolling are derived. These equations depend on the local surface properties of each contacting body. Several examples are presented to illustrate the nature of the equations.

Point Trajectories

This paper develops relationships between the instantaneous invariants of a motion and the local shape of the trajectories generated during the motion. We consider the point trajectories generated by planar and spherical motions and the line trajectories generated by spatial motion. Those points or lines which generate special trajectories are located on (and define) so-called boundary loci in the moving body. These boundary loci define regions, within the body, for which all the points or lines generate similarly shaped trajectories. The shapes of these boundaries depend directly upon the invariants of the motion. It is shown how to qualitatively determine the fundamental trajectory shapes, analyze the effect of the invariants on the boundary loci, and how to combine these results to visualize the motion trajectories to the third order.
