Chapter 4 -
Analytic Position Analysis
Imaginary
• A vector can be Axis
represented by a Point A
complex number
• Real part is x-axis jR sin q RA
• Imaginary part is y-
axis q
• Useful when we Real
begin to take Axis
R cos q
derivatives

Derivatives, Vector Rotations in the
Complex Plane
Imaginary
• Taking a derivative of
a complex number will B
RB = j R
result in multiplication
by j C A
• Each multiplication by RA
RC = j2 R = -R
j rotates a vector 90° Real
CCW in the complex
plane R = j3 R = - j R D

Labeling of Links and
Link Lengths
• Link labeling starts
with ground link
Link 3, length b
• Labeling of link B
Link 4,
Coupler length c
lengths starts with link Link 2, A
adjacent to ground length a
Link 1, length d

More on Complex Notation

• Polar form:

• Cartesian form:

• Euler identity:

• Differentiation:

The Vector Loop Technique

• Vector loop equation:


R2 + R3 - R4 - R1 = 0
• Alternative notation: R3 b B
RAO2 + RBA - RBO4 - RO4O2 = 0 q3 R4
nomenclature - tip then tail a A c q4
R2 q2 d
• Complex notation:
aejq2 + bejq3 - cejq4 - dejq1 = 0 O R1 O4

• Substitute Euler equation:
a (cos q2+j sinq2) + b (cos q3+j sinq3)
- c (cos q4+j sinq4) - d (cos q1+j sinq1) = 0
7 Position synthesis
Vector Loop Technique - continued

• Separate into real and imaginary parts:


Real:
a cos q2 + b cos q3 - c cos q4 - d cos q1 = 0
a cos q2 + b cos q3 - c cos q4 - d = 0,
since q1 = 0, cos q1 = 1
Imaginary:
ja sin q2 + jb sin q3 - jc sin q4 - jd sin q1 = 0
a sin q2 + b sin q3 - c sin q4 = 0,
since q1 = 0, sin q1 = 0

Vector Loop Technique -
continued
a cos q2 + b cos q3 - c cos q4 - d = 0
a sin q2 + b sin q3 - c sin q4 = 0
• a,b,c,d are known
• One of the three angles is given
• 2 unknown angles remain
• 2 equations given above
• Solve simultaneously for remaining angles

Vector Loop -

• Draw and label vector loop for mechanism
• Write vector equations
• Substitute Euler identity
• Separate into real and imaginary
• 2 equations, 2 unknown angles
• Solve for 2 unknown angles
• Note: there will be two solutions since
mechanism can be open or crossed
