Abstract
A number of researchers have been investigating the use of Stewart platforms (or hexapods) for precision applications. This paper presents a new dynamic model suitable for control of flexure jointed hexapods. Novel contributions include: 1) base acceleration inputs are included; 2) the dynamic model is experimentally verified; 3) the model is developed so that it is suitable for control, and 4) a decoupled force control is derived
