Computer Application in Type Synthesis Based on Systematic Linkage and Topology Matrix-Graph Approach

This paper study how to establish topology graphs from a topology embryonic graph with the help of computer in type synthesis of parallel mechanisms. The character of TGs are depicted by character arrays. Define what is isomorphic CAs in virtue of the concept of character string. Then put forward the new approach to identify isomorphism of CAs by using identification matrix. The program finding all non-isomorphic CAs is presented. Accordingly CAs of TGs creating automatically can bring into effect. At last draw relevant topology graphs according to their CAs automatically. These processes are carried out by program with Visual Basic on a computer. Illustrate with some examples.
