Abstract :
This paper presents a method of determining exact solutions to kinestatic analyses of lower mobility manipulators by means of the reciprocal Jacobian. The existence and uniqueness of the reciprocal Jacobian are shown, which enables the complete kinestatic analyses of both serial and fully parallel manipulators in a unified way, as well as the derivation of the constraints on the end-effector twist and wrench.
