Abstract
The kinematic differential equations express the paths taken by points, lines, and coordinate frames attached to a rigid body in terms of the instantaneous screw for the motion of that body. Such differential equations are linear but with a time-varying coefficient and hence solvable by power series. A single-loop kinematic chain may be expressed by a system of such differential equations subject to a linear constraint. A single matrix factorization followed by a sequence of substitutions of linear-system right-hand-side terms determines successive orders of the joint rate coefficients in the kinematic solution for this mechanism. The present work extends this procedure to the forward dynamics problem, applying it to a Clemens constant-velocity coupling expressed as a spatial 9R closed kinematic chain.
