Abstract
Kinematics and dynamics are the basis of analyzing the characteristics and control of space robots. In this chapter, the kinematics equations of a typical space robot system are given, including a description of topological relationships and the kinematics modeling process, which can be used for robot dynamics analysis and path planning. Based on analytical mechanics and vector mechanics, the dynamic models for rigid space robots and flexible space robots are established in this chapter, which can be used for robot dynamics analysis and control algorithm design.
