Direct displacement analysis of parallel manipulators

A new numerical method for the direct position analysis of the parallel manipulators is presented. The main feature of the method, making it attractive with respect to the method available in the literature, is the ability to search out the direct solution under any precision quickly. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
