Constraint Analysis and Redundancy of Planar Closed Loop Double Chain Linkages

This paper studies the kinematics of planar closed double chain linkages using the natural coordinate method. Different constraints including the rigid bar, pin joint, generalized angulated element (GAE) joint, and the boundary conditions of linkages were firstly used to form the system constraint e...
