Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSome Aspects of the Structure of Planar MechanismsRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.The machine is a technical system made up of distinct kinematic component parts (called kinematic elements) which, following the imprinting of movements imposed on an element or elements (considered as leading elements), cause movements to all other kinematic elements in order to execute a useful mechanical thing, or transforming some form of energy into mechanical energy. It follows from the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2018 · 8,020 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIterative Feedforward Control for Bearing-Free Multibody SystemsNicola Y. Bailey, Christopher Lusty, Patrick S. KeoghAutomated machinery and robotics are commonly conventional multibody systems containing bearing components, which exhibit uncertain, discontinuous and complex tribological characteristics. These generate wear and fundamentally limit the precision of small scale motion due to the tribological effects being difficult to compensate for using model-based active control. However, they can be eliminated through the replacement of traditional bearing joints with flexure … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 6 Dec 2021 · 6,477 accessesView PDFCite
