Abstract:
The isomorphism
of planar kinematic chains is studied. The original methods for
detecting isomorphism is discussed. A new matrix, the link-link
path matrix, is presented to show the structures of planar
kinematic chains. It is simple and reliable to detect
isomorphism of planar kinematic chains by using the link-link
path matrix.
Key words:
Planar kinematic chains Isomorphism Link-link path matrix
