Modal Analysis of High-Speed Parallel Manipulator with Flexible Links

Article Preview

Abstract:

The modal analysis was carried out to investigate the proposed improved curvature based finite element method (ICFE) for parallel manipulator with flexible links. The flexible link was discretizatied with ICFE first, and with the proposed rigid-flexible coupling technique, the flexible displacement of the moving platform and passive links was obtained, then through Lagrange equation, the structural model was derived. At last, to investigate the accuracy and efficiency of the ICFE and rigid-flexible coupling technique, modal analysis of ICFE model with different nodes and comparison studies with CFE and the ABAQUS model was carried out.
