Identification of Isomorphism in Kinematic Chains Using Hamming Method

Abstract:

Isomorphism identification is a difficult problem in kinematic chains. There is number of method given by many researchers to detect the isomorphism and inversion of kinematic chain but each has its own shortcomings. Purpose of this paper is to give an efficient and reliable method. An attempt has been made to provide satisfactory solution to detection of isomorphism by using hamming method. The method is implemented on sewing machine, break drum; straight line motion mechanisms have six links kinematic chain.
