DESCRIPTION:
Lung-Wen Tsai's vast experience in the field as well as recent research publications, Robot Analysis is a first-rate text for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer studies, as well as an excellent desktop reference for robotics researchers working in industry or in government. From the Back Cover Complete, state-of-the-art coverage of robot analysis This unique book provides the fundamental knowledge needed for understanding the mechanics of both serial and parallel manipulators. Presenting fresh and authoritative material on parallel manipulators that is not available in any other resource, it offers an in-depth treatment of position analysis, Jacobian analysis, statics and stiffness analysis, and dynamical
It also features: * The homotopy continuation method and dialytic elimination method for solving polynomial systems that apply to robot kinematics * Numerous worked examples and problems to reinforce learning * An extensive bibliography offering many resources for more advanced study Drawing on Dr. Lung-Wen Tsai's vast experience in the field as well as recent research publications, Robot Analysis is a first-rate text for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer studies, as well as an excellent desktop reference for robotics researchers working in industry or in government..

LUNG-WEN TSAI, PhD, is a professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and the Institute for Systems Research at the University of Maryland in College Park, Maryland. . He received his PhD from Stanford University in 1973 and has had an extensive career in engineering, education, and industry. He is a fellow of the ASME. An internationally recognized expert
"Five Stars" according to Dorion Carr Jr.. really helped me learn more about robots. Buy this. Seriously. Amazon Customer I took an advanced robotics course in grad school and this book was recommended along with the book of Angeles (Fundamentals of Robotic Mechanical Systems). I bought the Angeles book because the cover looked more serious.That was a mistake. I borrowed this book for one topic that Angles left out (forget which one), and never went back. The book of Tsai is very easy to read, covers a lot of material, and is very easy to read. Did I say that twice? Tsai says it once; succinctly and. "A must see by Mech E grad students and advanced undergrads." according to A Customer. A very readable, and by far, the most detailed and modern account of the mechanics of both serial and parallel systems.
