<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-1"> <div class="outline-text-2" id="text-1">
<p>
First, we have to understand what is the physical meaning of the Stiffness matrix \(\bm{K}\).
</p>
<p>
The Stiffness matrix links forces \(\bm{f}\) and torques \(\bm{n}\) applied on the mobile platform at \(\{B\}\) to the displacement \(\Delta\bm{\mathcal{X}}\) of the mobile platform represented by \(\{B\}\) with respect to \(\{A\}\):
\[ \bm{\mathcal{F}} = \bm{K} \Delta\bm{\mathcal{X}} \]
</p>
<p>
with:
</p>
<ul class="org-ul">
<li>\(\bm{\mathcal{F}} = [\bm{f}\ \bm{n}]^{T}\)</li>
<li>\(\Delta\bm{\mathcal{X}} = [\delta x, \delta y, \delta z, \delta \theta_{x}, \delta \theta_{y}, \delta \theta_{z}]^{T}\)</li>
</ul>
<p>
If the stiffness matrix is inversible, its inverse is the compliance matrix: \(\bm{C} = \bm{K}^{-1\) and:
\[ \Delta \bm{\mathcal{X}} = C \bm{\mathcal{F}} \]
</p>
<p>
Thus, if the stiffness matrix is diagonal, the compliance matrix is also diagonal and a force (resp. torque) \(\bm{\mathcal{F}}_i\) applied on the mobile platform at \(\{B\}\) will induce a pure translation (resp. rotation) of the mobile platform represented by \(\{B\}\) with respect to \(\{A\}\).
</p>
<p>
One has to note that this is only valid in a static way.

Let&rsquo;s say we want to have a decouple dynamics above the top platform. Let&rsquo;s say we want to have a diagonal stiffness matrix when \(\{A\}\) and \(\{B\}\) are located above the top platform.
Thus, we want the cube&rsquo;s center to be located above the top center. Thus, we want the cube&rsquo;s center to be located above the top center.
This is possible, to do so: </p>
<p>
Let&rsquo;s fix the Height of the Stewart platform and the position of frames \(\{A\}\) and \(\{B\}\):
</p>
<div class="org-src-container">
<pre class="src src-matlab">H = 100e<span class="org-type">-</span>3; <span class="org-comment">% height of the Stewart platform [m]</span>
MO_B = 20e<span class="org-type">-</span>3; <span class="org-comment">% Position {B} with respect to {M} [m]</span>
</pre>
</div>
<p>
We find the several Cubic configuration for the Stewart platform where the center of the cube is located at frame \(\{A\}\).
The differences between the configuration are the cube&rsquo;s size:
</p> </p>
<ul class="org-ul"> <ul class="org-ul">
<li>The position of the center of the cube should be positioned at A</li> <li>Small Cube Size in Figure <a href="#org105635f">6</a></li>
<li>The Height of the &ldquo;useful&rdquo; part of the cube should be at least equal to two times the distance from F to A. <li>Medium Cube Size in Figure <a href="#org264ab9c">7</a></li>
It is possible to have small cube, but then to configuration is a little bit strange.</li> <li>Large Cube Size in Figure <a href="#org52254fe">8</a></li>
</ul> </ul>
<p>
For each of the configuration, the Stiffness matrix is diagonal with \(k_x = k_y = k_y = 2k\) with \(k\) is the stiffness of each strut.
However, the rotational stiffnesses are increasing with the cube&rsquo;s size but the required size of the platform is also increasing, so there is a trade-off here.

The cubic (or orthogonal) configuration of the Stewart platform is now widely used (cite:preumont07_six_axis_singl_stage_activ,jafari03_orthog_gough_stewar_platf_microm).
According to cite:preumont07_six_axis_singl_stage_activ, the cubic configuration provides a uniform stiffness in all directions and *minimizes the crosscoupling* from actuator to sensor of different legs (being orthogonal to each other). According to cite:preumont07_six_axis_singl_stage_activ:

* Configuration Analysis - Stiffness Matrix * Configuration Analysis - Stiffness Matrix
** Introduction :ignore:
First, we have to understand what is the physical meaning of the Stiffness matrix $\bm{K}$.
The Stiffness matrix links forces $\bm{f}$ and torques $\bm{n}$ applied on the mobile platform at $\{B\}$ to the displacement $\Delta\bm{\mathcal{X}}$ of the mobile platform represented by $\{B\}$ with respect to $\{A\}$:
\[ \bm{\mathcal{F}} = \bm{K} \Delta\bm{\mathcal{X}} \]
with:
- $\bm{\mathcal{F}} = [\bm{f}\ \bm{n}]^{T}$
- $\Delta\bm{\mathcal{X}} = [\delta x, \delta y, \delta z, \delta \theta_{x}, \delta \theta_{y}, \delta \theta_{z}]^{T}$
If the stiffness matrix is inversible, its inverse is the compliance matrix: $\bm{C} = \bm{K}^{-1$ and:
\[ \Delta \bm{\mathcal{X}} = C \bm{\mathcal{F}} \]
Thus, if the stiffness matrix is diagonal, the compliance matrix is also diagonal and a force (resp. torque) $\bm{\mathcal{F}}_i$ applied on the mobile platform at $\{B\}$ will induce a pure translation (resp. rotation) of the mobile platform represented by $\{B\}$ with respect to $\{A\}$.
One has to note that this is only valid in a static way.

Here are the conclusion about the Stiffness matrix for the Cubic configuration:
- The cubic configuration permits to have $k_x = k_y = k_z$ and $k_{\theta_x} = k_{\theta_y}$ - The cubic configuration permits to have $k_x = k_y = k_z$ and $k_{\theta_x} = k_{\theta_y}$
- The stiffness matrix $K$ is diagonal for the cubic configuration if the Jacobian is estimated at the cube center. - The stiffness matrix $K$ is diagonal for the cubic configuration if the Jacobian is estimated at the cube center.

** Having Cube's center above the top platform ** Having Cube's center above the top platform
Let's say we want to have a decouple dynamics above the top platform. Let's say we want to have a diagonal stiffness matrix when $\{A\}$ and $\{B\}$ are located above the top platform.
Thus, we want the cube's center to be located above the top center. Thus, we want the cube's center to be located above the top center.
This is possible, to do so:
- The position of the center of the cube should be positioned at A Let's fix the Height of the Stewart platform and the position of frames $\{A\}$ and $\{B\}$:
- The Height of the "useful" part of the cube should be at least equal to two times the distance from F to A. #+begin_src matlab
It is possible to have small cube, but then to configuration is a little bit strange. H = 100e-3; % height of the Stewart platform [m]
MO_B = 20e-3; % Position {B} with respect to {M} [m]
#+end_src
We find the several Cubic configuration for the Stewart platform where the center of the cube is located at frame $\{A\}$.
The differences between the configuration are the cube's size:
- Small Cube Size in Figure [[fig:stewart_cubic_conf_type_1]]
- Medium Cube Size in Figure [[fig:stewart_cubic_conf_type_2]]
- Large Cube Size in Figure [[fig:stewart_cubic_conf_type_3]]
For each of the configuration, the Stiffness matrix is diagonal with $k_x = k_y = k_y = 2k$ with $k$ is the stiffness of each strut.
However, the rotational stiffnesses are increasing with the cube's size but the required size of the platform is also increasing, so there is a trade-off here.
