Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Although many industrial applications have adopted parallel robots, few textbooks introduce their analysis in terms of dynamics and control. Filling the gap, this book combines the analysis of kinematics and dynamics with methods of designing controllers. It brings together analysis and design tools for engineers and researchers who want to design and implement parallel structures. Coverage includes Jacobian analysis, three methods for dynamic analysis, and advanced topics in control. Throughout, case studies show how the techniques can be applied in practice.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Hamid D. Taghirad is currently a professor with the Faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Department of Systems and Control, and the founder of the Advanced Robotics and Automated System (ARAS) at K.N. Toosi University of Technology, Tehran, Iran. He has been involved in numerous robotics industrial projects on the design and implementation of industrial robots, robotic cells, and currently on an industrial cable-driven parallel manipulator. He has also participated in joint international collaborations in the field of robotics. Dr. Taghirad was the founder and a member of the board of the Iranian Society of Mechatronics (ISM) and is currently a member of the board of the Iranian Robotics Society (IRS), editor in chief of Mechatronics Magazine, and a member of the editorial board of the International Journal of Robotics: Theory and Application. He also served as an organizing committee member of many international conferences, including the International Conference on Robotics and Mechatronics (ICRoM). His publications include five books and more than 190 papers in peer-reviewed international journals and conference proceedings.
