Modeling and simulation of a dynamic motorcycle simulator based on Stewart Gough platform using inverse kinematics - Islamabad. Department of Mechatronics (Air University Main Campus) 2007. - x;221p. CD not available.
Prediction of space designing is an important parameter in robotic design. It gives information about the field of robot in which it operation is optimum in terms of stability. The study is targeted to portray the implications of different variants of a hexagon in the design of a Stewart Gough platform for a motorbike simulator. The upper plate/platform of the Stewart Gough platform which is the moving platform is considered to be the motorbike where as the base plate/platform is considered to be stationary. The inverse kinematics methodology is implemented for obtaining the leg lengths of the actuator while the simulated platform is subjected to rotational and translational motion. The efforts imply to results in the form of a picture gallery of architectural change of Stewart Gough platform vs. its rotational and translational motions. Crux of this study is to highlight the effects of architectural change of a SGP on its rotational and translational movements along with the introduction of weightage criteria for a motorbike simulator for optimum performance. Since the motorbike simulator is taken as the case study therefore the study acts as a test bed for the development of a motor bike simulator .It can also help in knowing the limitations and areas of strength of a Stewart Gough platform while designing any parallel robot.
