5-DOF manipulator simulation based on MATLAB-Simulink methodology

摘要

This work presents a novel simulation methodology applied to a 5-DOF manipulator. The work includes mathematical modeling of the direct, inverse and differential kinematics as well as the dynamics of the manipulator. The method implements the path following in the 3D space and uses the Matlab-Simulink approach. Several paths were tested to verify the method. This methodology can be used with different robots to test the behavior and control laws.
