Abstract Reducing consumed power of a robotic machine has an essential role in enhancing its energy efficiency and must be considered during its design process. This paper deals with dynamic modeling and power optimization of a four-degrees-of-freedom flight simulator machine. Simulator cabin of the machine has yaw, pitch, roll and heave motions produced by a 4RPSP+PS parallel manipulator (PM). Using the Euler–Lagrange method, a closed-form dynamic equation is derived for the 4RPSP+PS PM, and its power consumption is computed on the entire workspace. Then, a newly introduced optimization algorithm called multiobjective golden eagle optimizer is utilized to establish a Pareto front of optimal designs of the manipulator having a relatively larger workspace and lower power consumption. The results are verified through numerical examples.

Abstract In this paper, a special 6-PUS parallel manipulator (PM) is utilized as a shaking table. Unlike the existing results about 6-PUS PMs, we make the actuator direction collinear with the linkage direction at neutral position. With respect to the application background, a further analysis of the special PM is carried out from the perspective of motion/force transmissibility, natural frequency and acceleration capability. Specially, the complete dynamics model is established based on the Kane method. Then, generalized transmission indices based on the screw theory are utilized to reflect its motion ability, and a model of natural frequency is proposed with the axial stiffness of linkages considered. Finally, the effect of the angle between the actuator direction and the linkage direction α on various performances is analyzed, and other results are included to illustrate its feasibility and usability.

Abstract A comprehensive dynamic modeling and actuator torque minimization of a new symmetrical three-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF) 3-PṞR spherical parallel manipulator (SPM) is presented. Three actuating systems, each of which composed of an electromotor, a gearbox and a double Rzeppa-type driveshaft, produce input torques of the manipulator. Kinematics of the 3-PṞR SPM was recently studied by the author (Zarkandi, Proc. Inst. Mech. Eng. Part C J. Mech. Eng. Sci. 2020, https://doi.org/10.1177%2F0954406220938806). In this paper, a closed-form dynamic equation of the manipulator is derived with the Newton–Euler approach. Then, an optimization problem with kinematic and dynamic constraints is presented to minimize torques of the actuators for implementing a given task. The results are also verified by the SimMechanics model of the manipulator.
