An equivalent two section method for calculating the workspace of multi-segment continuum robots

Yeman Fan,Dikai Liu,Yeman Fan,Dikai Liu

Obtaining the shape and size of a robot's workspace is essential for both its design and control. However, determining the accurate workspace of a multi-segment continuum robot by graphic or analytical methods is a challenging task due to its inherent flexibility and complex structure. Existing numerical methods have limitations when applied to a continuum robot. This paper presents an Equivalent ...
