Redundancy Resolution of Cable-Driven Parallel Manipulators

In this thesis, the redundancy resolution and failure analysis of Cable-Driven Parallel Manipulators (CDPM) are investigated. A CDPM consists mainly of a Mobile Platform (MP) actuated by cables. Cables can only apply force in the form of tension. So, to design a fully controllable CDPM, the manipula...
