  • Abstract
    A computer simulation procedure for the dynamics of topological chains, using a recursive Newton-Euler formulation, is presented. The bodies of the chain are, in general, elastic and the joints can permit arbitrary (rotational and/or translational) interbody motion. Relative interbody translation, however, is assumed small. As an example, a three-link quasianthropomorphic flexible-link manipulator is studied. The simulation results underscore the importance of modeling structural flexibility
