Comparative Dynamic Response of a Optimized Single Link Flexible Manipulator

Abstract:

—In this work, comparative study for dynamic response is carried out for optimized single link flexible robotic manipulator under various types of excitations. Manipulator is considered as an Euler-Bernoulli beam and shape is optimized for circular area of cross-section. Finite element method is used to obtain fundamental frequency and sequential quadratic programming (SQP) is used for its maximization.
