Optimization of the Design of Hexapod Platform


Abstract in English

The main objective of this research is to present a study on the design optimization of the 6-RUS Stewart platform. The geometric and kinematic models are calculated and the singular positions are determined, then its translation and orientation workspace are determining. The direct geometric model of the studied platform was determined by using a proposed hybrid method.
