Overview
- The first book concerning about kinematics of parallel mechanisms covering type, kinematics and optimal design
- Presenting many novel concepts and approaches, i.e. type synthesis based on evolution, performance evaluation and optimization based on screw theory, singularity analysis taking into account motion and force transmissibility
- Providing a large number of novel mechanical architectures of PMs available for use in practical application
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
