Kinematic Manipulability of General Constrained Rigid Multibody Systems
This paper extends the kinematic manipulability concept commonly used for serial manipulators to general constrained rigid multibody systems. Examples of such systems include multi...

A geometrical approach to inverse kinematics for continuum manipulators
—We present a new geometrical approach to solving inverse kinematics for continuous backbone (continuum) robot manipulators. First, this paper presents a solution to the inverse ...

Uniqueness Domains in the Workspace of Parallel Manipulators
This work investigates new kinematic features of parallel manipulators. It is well known that parallel manipulators admit generally several direct kinematic solutions for a given ...
