...Paul Milenkovic Linear analysis of motion screws is a means for determining the mobility of a mechanism composed of the parallel combination of serial kinematic chains. Such a mechanism may have one or more degrees of freedom that vanish after a differential displacement from a reference posture...

...Chin-Hsing Kuo; Hong-Sen Yan The mechanisms with variable topologies (MVTs) are usually changing their topological structures in accordance with the varying mobility and quasi-singular configurations. The mobility analysis and configuration singularity of MVTs are studied via screw theory...

...Jian S. Dai; Zhen Huang; Harvey Lipkin The Kutzbach–Grübler mobility criterion calculates the degrees of freedom of a general mechanism. However, the criterion can break down for mechanisms with special geometries, and in particular, the class of so-called overconstrained parallel mechanisms...

... requirements of a mechanical hand. Using the mobility criterion and force closure concept, constraint equations for structural synthesis of multi-fingered mechanical hands are derived. A procedure for systematic enumeration of the kinematic structures of mechanical hands is established. An atlas of feasible...
