Appendix: Answer Sheet

Student No.:

Section A:
a) Consider the 3R planar robot manipulator schematic shown in Fig. 1. Based on the Forward [13]
Kinematics, the end effector coordinates (position and Orientation; x, y, φ) are specified as:

And therefore, the determinant of the Jacobian can be simplified as:

Which means that the manipulator is singular only when θ2 is either 0 or 180 degrees. Explain why
the singularity is not a function of θ3 even though when θ3 is either 0 or 180 causes the last two
links (l2, l3) to be aligned? Support your analysis by some configuration example of the manipulator
presented in Fig 1.

b) Analyse the DH parameter table (Table 1) corresponding to the 3DoF RRP robot manipulator shown [12] in
Fig. 2. Identify up to three inaccuracies in the table, providing the correct values along with brief
justifications for each amendment. Note: If more than three corrections are submitted, only the first three
will be assessed.

Section B:
Consider the robot manipulator shown in Fig. 3, where the robot parameters including the lengths has been
presented.

a) Find the Forward Kinematics which maps the joins parameters ( 1, 2 ) to the workspace [4] parameters
(x,y of the end-effector).

[10]
b) For any possible values of , mathematically drive the reachable workspace. (without any l2 limitations
on joint angels).

c) Find the basic Jacobian, J0, for this manipulator which relates changes between workspace [5]
parameters (X,Y) of the end-effector and the joint parameters.
d) Find the singularities (with respect to linear velocity) of this manipulator. [6]

Section C:
For the two-link manipulator shown in Fig. 4:
[13]

a) Generate a joint space trajectory q1,d ( ), q2,d ( ) , connecting the initial and final joint positions. (The
t t
subscript d stands for desired). Use a linear function with parabolic blends, assuming that the
velocity at the start and end of the path is zero. Assume that the duration of the motion is t f = 2.0
sec and that of the acceleration (and deceleration) is tb = 0.5sec.

a) Produce the path of the end-effector in the Cartesian space, by generating its position at 0, 0.5, 1.0, [12] 1.5,
and 2.0 sec. Aso, produce the path in the joint space.

Position Final Position

Section D
Using the Iterative Newton-Euler method, find the equations of motion of the 2R link manipulator, shown [25] in
Fig 5. You may assume that the links can be modelled as point masses located as shown in the figure. Assume that
the damping coefficients and friction forces are negligible.
