A method to optimize a robotic parallel manipulator | |
configuration using Pareto Optimization techniques was | |
developed. Pareto optimization is a cooperative effort | |
between design parameters. The design parameters to be | |
optimized included the payload mass, the length of the | |
manipulator link labelled 12,and the prescribed time for | |
the manipulator to move a prescribed distance. Three | |
functionals were computed for design optimization. These | |
included the mechanical efficiency of the system, the | |
maximum value of torque for motor one, and the maximum | |
value of torque for motor two. A functional analysis was | |
performed using two trajectories for the manipulator; a | |
horizontal trajectory and a vertical trajectory. A | |
combination of these paths allow the manipulator to reach | |
anywhere within its workspace. Algorithms were developed | |
for computing each of the functionals when changing any | |
of the design parameters. When the horizontal path was | |
traversed, mechanical efficiency was zero, thus total | |
input work of the manipulator was evaluated. The | |
sensitivities of the design parameter changes were | |
evaluated for optimization. When a horizontal path was | |
followed, only the link 1 (2) length had changing | |
sensitivity values. Sensitivity changes occurred for all | |
of the design parameters for a vertical trajectory. | |
