Finally, the first flexible mode of the top plate is at \(650\,\text{Hz}\) (\subref{fig:detail_design_fem_plate_mode})}

\chapter{Multi-Body Model}
\label{sec:detail_design_model}
\textbf{Multi body Model}:
\begin{itemize}
\item Complete model: two plates, 6 joints, 6 actuators, 6 encoders
\item Joint Model
\item APA Model
\item Encoder model
\item Say that obtained dynamics was considered good + possible to perform simulations of tomography experiments with same performance as during the conceptual design
\end{itemize}
Two configurations:
\begin{itemize}
\item Encoders fixed to the struts
\item Encoders fixed to the plates
\end{itemize}

Measurement \(d_i\) corresponds to the \(x\) position of the encoder frame \(\{E\}\) expresssed in the ruller frame \(\{R\}\) (\subref{fig:detail_design_simscape_encoder}). A rotation of the encoder therefore induces a measured displacement (\subref{fig:detail_design_simscape_encoder_disp}).}
