Publisher review:SpaceLib - 3D rototraslations, Kinematics and Dynamics of multibody systems (Robotics and Biomechanics) SPACELIB© is a library for 3D Kinematics and Dynamics of system of rigid bodies. Is currently used in Robotics and Biomechanics.It is based on an powerfull extension of the 4*4 transformation matrix approach by Denavith and Hartenberg. The present extension adds 4*4 matrices for the velocity and accelerations (angular and linear) plus 4*4 matrices for forces (and torques), momentum (angular and linear) and inertia. Two versions of the library are available for numeric applications (C-language, MATLAB) and one for symbolic calculation (Maple).Spacelib is free available for NON profit purposes. Free use includes scientific and educational activities. The use of SPACELIB© should be mentioned in papers reporting work developed with the help of this library. For commercial activities, please contact the author. The files includes:
- full MATLAB, c-languace, Maple source code
- full reference manual in pdf format
- commented application examples
- papers describing the mathematical bases (pdf format).
The topics covered by the library are:
- transformation matrices (rototranslations)
- velocity, acceleration, force, momentum matrices
- Cardan/Euler angles basic operations on matrices, vectors, planes, lines and points linear systems: solutions, (pseudo)inverse of matrices
SpaceLib is a Matlab script for Controls and Systems Modeling scripts design by giovanni legnani.
It runs on following operating system: Windows / Linux / Mac OS / BSD / Solaris.
