Fold maps are smooth maps at each singular point of which it is represented as the product map of a Morse function and the identity map. Round fold maps are, in short, such maps the sets of all singular points of which are embedded…
Early last century witnessed both the complete classification of 2-dimensional manifolds and a proof that classification of 4-dimensional manifolds is undecidable, setting up 3-dimensional manifolds as a central battleground of topology to…
We review the theory of orthogonal separation of variables on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of constant non-zero curvature via concircular tensors and warped products. We then apply this theory simultaneously to both the three-dimensional…
Increasing the degrees of freedom of robotic systems makes them more versatile and flexible. This usually renders the system kinematically redundant: the main manipulation or interaction task does not fully determine its joint maneuvers.…
This paper presents the workspace optimization of one-translational two-rotational (1T2R) parallel manipulators using a dimensionally homogeneous constraint-embedded Jacobian. The mixed degrees of freedom of 1T2R parallel manipulators,…
