A New Algorithm to Estimate Glenohumeral Joint Location Based on Scapula Rhythm
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis work analyzes the human shoulder complex workspace by introducing a new method to estimate the intra-articulation location of the glenohumeral (GH) joint. The proposed algorithm is based on the hypothesis of the GH ... -
A new insight into the coupler curves of the RCCC four-bar linkage
(Springer, 2017)
Conference report
Open AccessBased on the condition for four points to lie on the unit sphere, derived using Distance Geometry, a new mathematical formulation for the coupler curves of the RCCC linkage is presented. The relevance of this formulation ... -
A Task-based Design Methodology for Robotic Exoskeletons
(Sage Publications, 2018-11)
Article
Open AccessThis study is aimed at developing a task-based methodology for the design of robotic exoskeletons. This is in contrast to prevailing research efforts, which attempt to mimic the human limb, where each human joint is given ... -
Bennet's Linkage and the Cylindroid
(2002)
Article
Open AccessBennett’s linkage is a spatial 4R closed chain that can move with one degree of freedom. The set of relative displacement screws that form the one-dimensional workspace of this device defines a ruled surface known as a ... -
Clifford Algebra Representation of Grasping and Manipulative Hand Actions for Kinematic Synthesis
(Facultat d'Informàtica de Barcelona (UPC), 2015)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe dimensional synthesis of wristed, multi-fingered hands for simultaneous tasks of all fingertips is an active field of research. When defining unconstrained positions for the fingers, this problem is solved by equating ... -
Coupling Mechanisms for Multi-Fingered Robotic Hands with Skew Axes
(Springer, 2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe design of wristed, multi-fingered robotic hands for specific tasks usually leads to solutions in which the position of the joint axes have little to do with those of anthropomorphic hands. Joint axes tend to be skewed, ... -
