Résumé

Understand the geometry embedded within robots and mechanisms using classical screw theory. Starting with points, lines, planes, vectors and linear algebra, and familiarizing the reader with screw geometry in order to study statics and kinematics of robots and mechanisms, this is a perfect resource for engineers and graduate students.

Screw Theory and its Application to Spatial Robot Manipulators by Carl D Crane Iii

Discover a fresh take on classical screw theory and understand the geometry embedded within robots and mechanisms with this essential text. The book begins with a geometrical study of points, lines, and planes and slowly takes the reader toward a mastery of screw theory with some cutting-edge results, all while using only basic linear algebra and ordinary vectors. It features a discussion of the geometry of parallel and serial robot manipulators, in addition to the reciprocity of screws and a singularity study. All 41 essential screw systems are unveiled, establishing the possible freedom twists and constraint wrenches for a kinematic joint. Familiarizing the reader with screw geometry in order to study the statics and kinematics of robots and mechanisms, this is a perfect resource for engineers and graduate students.
Carl Crane is Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Florida. He is a fellow of the ASME. Michael Griffis is Senior Lecturer at the University of Florida. Joseph Duffy was a great kinematician who passionately promoted screw theory. He was the Director of the Center for Intelligent Machines and Robotics at the University of Florida and a Graduate Research Professor, who taught screw theory. He received countless awards, including the ASME Machine Design Award in 2000.
