Abstract. The error model of the working accuracy of parallel mechanism was established in this paper. The D-H matrix method and error independent method were used to analyze the clearance error of mechanism joint based on the inverse position kinematics solution. The theoretical model describing the position error of the moving platform position error affected by its joint clearance was developed when the moving platform was parallel to fixed platform in the ideal state; the clearance error model of 3-TPT Parallel mechanism was established based on D-H matrix method and error independent method while the joint clearance error source was given. The effect of joint clearance error on the working accuracy of 3-TPT parallel mechanism was analyzed by Monte Carlo method. The effect of posture error due to revolution of the moving platform about coordinate axis on the error of parallel mechanism was simulated and analyzed based on D-H matrix method in the non-ideal state.

This paper establishes position error model based on parallel robot kinematics theory, and analyses position error of the 3-TPS hybrid machine tool. Firstly, to calculate position error of the movable plate caused by the parallel mechanism links, through error model of the parallel mechanism which is established through inverse kinematics of the hybrid machine tool. Then, according to the error model of constraint mechanism established by transformation matrix method, the position error has been simulated and calculated. Finally, this paper compares the effects of both mechanisms. The analysis indicates the link error of constraint mechanism has more influence on movable plate posture than parallel mechanism, and provides help with motion error compensation and kinematic calibration.

Spherical joint is a type of common kinematic pair in spatial parallel mechanism. The existence of spherical joint clearance has many adverse effects on the mechanism. A method of forecasting the dynamic behaviors of spatial parallel mechanism with spherical clearance joint is proposed. The 4-UPS-UPU spatial parallel mechanism with spherical clearance is taken as the research object, the dynamic response, and nonlinear characteristics of the mechanism are studied. The kinematic model and the contact force model of the spherical clearance are established. The dynamic equation of the spatial parallel mechanism with spherical joint clearance is derived by Newton–Euler method. The above-mentioned dynamic equation is solved by using the ODE113 function that is based on a variable order numerical differential algorithm in matlab. The dynamic responses of moving platform with different clearance values are analyzed. The contact force and the center trajectory of the sphere at the spherical joint are obtained. In addition, the phase trajectory, Poincare map, and bifurcation diagram are analyzed, and the nonlinear characteristics of the spherical clearance joint and the moving platform are obtained. By comparing the results, such as the acceleration of moving platform and the contact force, with virtual prototype simulation, the correctness of the dynamic equation of the spatial parallel mechanism with spherical clearance joint and the analysis results are verified. The researches show that the change of clearance value has a great influence on the motion state of spherical clearance joint, and chaos phenomena appears in the clearance joint with the increase in the clearance value. And the impact phenomenon appears between the spherical joint elements, which makes the mechanism generated vibration.

The forward displacement analysis of parallel mechanism is attributed to find the solutions of complicated nonlinear equations and it is a very difficult process. Taking chaotic sequences as the initial values of Newton-downhill method, we can find all the solutions of equations quickly. Based on utilizing hyper-chaotic Hénon mapping to obtain initial points, a new method of finding all real number solutions of the nonlinear questions is proposed. Using cosine matrix method, the author established the mathematical model of forward displacement for the generalized 4SPS-2CCS parallel robot mechanism and a numerical example is given. Compared to the quaternion method building mathematical model, the result shows cosine matrix method building mathematical model and hyper-chaotic Newton-downhill method finding solution is brief and high calculation efficiency as the calculation is done in real number range. The proposed method has universality which can be used in forward displacement of other parallel mechanism.

Metamorphic transformation is a fundamental and key issue in the design and analysis of metamorphic mechanisms. It is tedious to represent and calculate the metamorphic transformations of metamorphic parallel mechanisms using the existing adjacency matrix method. To simplify the configuration transformation analysis, we propose a new method based on block adjacency matrix to analyze the configuration transformations of metamorphic parallel mechanisms. A block adjacency matrix is composed of three types of elements, including limb matrices that are adjacency matrices each representing a limb of a metamorphic parallel mechanism, row matrices each representing how a limb is connected to the moving platform, and column matrices each representing how a limb is connected to the base. Manipulations of the block adjacency matrix for analyzing the metamorphic transformations are presented systematically. If only the internal configuration of a limb changes, the configuration transformations can be obtained by simply calculating the corresponding limb matrix. A 3-URRRR metamorphic parallel mechanism, which has five configurations including a 1-DOF translation configuration and a 3-DOF spherical motion configuration, is taken as an example to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach to the metamorphic transformation analysis of metamorphic parallel mechanism.

The forward displacement analysis of parallel mechanism is attributed to find the solutions of complicated nonlinear equations and it is a very difficult process. Taking chaotic sequences as the initial values of Newton-downhill method, we can find all the solutions of equations quickly. Making use of existing chaos system and discovering new chaos system to generate chaotic sequences with good properties is the key to the Newton-downhill method based on Chaos sequences. Based on utilizing hyper-chaotic Hénon mapping to obtain initial points, a new method of finding all real number solutions of the nonlinear questions is proposed. Using cosine matrix method, the author established the mathematical model of forward displacement for the generalized 3SPS-3CCS parallel robot mechanism and a numerical example is given.

SUMMARY This paper proposes a dynamic modeling method of redundant drive spatial parallel mechanism, dynamics of 4-UPS-RPU redundant driving spatial parallel mechanism considering spherical joint clearance are analyzed. The dynamic equation of spherical joint clearance with Lagrange multiplier is built. The influences of single clearance and multiple clearances on dynamic responses of redundant drive spatial parallel mechanisms are analyzed under different clearance values. The results show that the dynamic characteristics of the mechanism with single clearance are basically consistent with the ideal situation, and the dynamic characteristics of the mechanism with multi-clearance are significantly different from the ideal situation.

This chapter presents a reading of Plato’s Republic. The Republic is among Plato’s most complex works. From its title, the first-time reader will expect a dialogue about political theory, yet the work starts from the perspective of the individual, coming to focus on the question of how, if at all, justice contributes to an agent’s happiness. Only after this question has been fully set out does the work evolve into an investigation of politics—of the ideal state and of the institutions that sustain it, especially those having to do with education. But the interest in individual justice and happiness is never left behind. Rather, the work weaves in and out of the two perspectives, individual and political, right through to its conclusion. All this may leave one wondering about the unity of the work. The chapter shows that, despite the enormous range of topics discussed, the Republic fits together as a coherent whole.

Based on the current situation of high precision and comparatively low APA (absolute positioning accuracy) in industrial robots, a calibration method to enhance the APA of industrial robots is proposed. In view of the "hidden" characteristics of the RBCS (robot base coordinate system) and the FCS (flange coordinate system) in the measurement process, a comparatively general measurement and calibration method of the RBCS and the FCS is proposed, and the source of the robot terminal position error is classified into three aspects: positioning error of industrial RBCS, kinematics parameter error of manipulator, and positioning error of industrial robot end FCS. The robot position error model is established, and the relation equation of the robot end position error and the industrial robot model parameter error is deduced. By solving the equation, the parameter error identification and the supplementary results are obtained, and the method of compensating the error by using the robot joint angle is realized. The Leica laser tracker is used to verify the calibration method on ABB IRB120 industrial robot. The experimental results show that the calibration method can effectively enhance the APA of the robot.
