Dynamic Simulation of a Parallel Topology Robot Operation

Abstract:

In this paper, the geometrical model of a guiding device mechanism of a parallel topology robot proposed as a flight simulator is presented. For the operation simulation, the input parameters are the relative displacements of driving kinematical joints links versus time. The displacements of 2 characteristic points on the mobile platform are determined, as well as their velocity and acceleration variations. Also, the variations of kinematic and potential energy of human operator geometrical model and the variation of power consumption for different operating conditions are accomplished. For geometrical modeling and dynamic simulation, SolidWorks software is used.
