KaRD series is an open environment where researchers can present their works and discuss all the topics focused on the many aspects that involve kinematics in the design of robotic/automatic systems. Kinematics is so intimately related to the design of robotic/automatic systems that the admitted topics of the KaRD series practically cover all the subjects normally present in well-established international conferences on “mechanisms and robotics”. KaRD2021, after the peer-review process, accepted 12 papers. The accepted papers cover some theoretical and many design/applicative aspects.Technology: general issuesbicsscHistory of engineering & technologybicsscparallel manipulatorRoboMechkinematic synthesis and analysisChebyshev and least-square approximationsupper limb rehabilitationbio-inspired exoskeletoncable-driven systemover-actuationHill’s modelEP controltorque adjusting mechanismdifferential evolutionrobot modeling and simulationrobot designdynamic modellingrehabilitation roboticscomputational modellingsimulationMATLABSimulinkSimScapeSimScape Multibodyfinger gripelderlyergonomicspinch assistantpinch forceusabilityplanar linkagesindeterminate linkagesscrew theorycollaborative robotssmall-scale productionskill-based programmingmachine designdimensional synthesisuseful workspaceperformance indexkinetostaticsbiomimeticsunderwater robotsroboticsmultibody systemstransmission systemsautonomous underwater vehicleskinematic synthesis of robotsmixed-position synthesistwist systemsfunctional electrical stimulationsix-bar linkageWatt IIStephenson IIIperformance tricyclemechanism optimizationkinematicstopologydesign optimizationdexterityinspectionTechnology: general issuesHistory of engineering & technologyDi Gregorio Raffaeleedt1314868Di Gregorio RaffaeleothBOOK9910595066703321Kinematics and Robot Design IV, KaRD20213038584UNINA
