  2. Cartesian parallel manipulators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Cartesian_parallel_manipulators

    Cartesian manipulators are driven by mutually perpendicular linear actuators. They generally have a one-to-one correspondence between the linear positions of the actuators and the X, Y, Z position coordinates of the moving platform, making them easy to control. Furthermore, Cartesian manipulators do not change the orientation of the moving ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_mathematical...

    A correspondence from a set to a set is a subset of a Cartesian product ; in other words, it is a binary relation but with the specification of the ambient sets , used in the definition. D [ edit ]

  4. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    It consists of terms that are either variables, function definitions (𝜆-terms), or applications of functions to terms. Terms are manipulated through some rules, (the α-equivalence, the β-reduction, and the η-conversion), which are the axioms of the theory and may be interpreted as rules of computation.

  5. Six degrees of freedom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_degrees_of_freedom

    Serial and parallel manipulator systems are generally designed to position an end-effector with six degrees of freedom, consisting of three in translation and three in orientation. This provides a direct relationship between actuator positions and the configuration of the manipulator defined by its forward and inverse kinematics.

  6. Cartesian coordinate robot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_robot

    Cartesian coordinate robots are controlled by mutually perpendicular active prismatic P joints that are aligned with the X, Y, Z axes of a Cartesian coordinate system. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Although not strictly ‘robots’, other types of manipulators , such as computer numerically controlled (CNC) machines, 3D printers or pen plotters , also have the ...

    1. Denotes the Cartesian product of two sets. That is, is the set formed by all pairs of an element of A and an element of B. 2. Denotes the direct product of two mathematical structures of the same type, which is the Cartesian product of the underlying

  8. Rotation of axes in two dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_of_axes_in_two...

    In mathematics, a rotation of axes in two dimensions is a mapping from an xy-Cartesian coordinate system to an x′y′-Cartesian coordinate system in which the origin is kept fixed and the x′ and y′ axes are obtained by rotating the x and y axes counterclockwise through an angle .

  9. Curl (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curl_(mathematics)

    so the curl of a 1-vector field (fiberwise 4-dimensional) is a 2-vector field, which at each point belongs to 6-dimensional vector space, and so one has = < =,,,,, which yields a sum of six independent terms, and cannot be identified with a 1-vector field.
