Abstract
A general scheme for the optimization of planar, spherical and spatial bimodal linkages for function generation is proposed. The problem is solved here following two basic steps: (i) planning input-output (I/O) curves based on design requirements and selecting data from the plann ed curve; and (ii) setting up an optimization procedure to minimize a performance index.
