Representation of the kinematic topology of mechanisms for kinematic analysis

The kinematic modeling of multi-loop mechanisms requires a systematic representation of the kinematic topology, i.e. the arrangement of links and joints. A linear graph, called the topological graph, is used to this end. Various forms of this graph have been introduced for application in mechanism k...
