Purpose – Sinusoidal signals are often used as the inputs of the six degree of freedom (DOF) motion simulator platforms. The purpose of this paper is to propose a fuzzy incremental controller (FIC) to improve sinusoidal signal tracking performances of an electrohydraulic Gough-Stewart platform...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present systematic optimal design procedures for the Gough-Stewart platforms used as engineering motion simulators. Design/methodology/approach – Three systematic optimal design procedures are proposed to solve the engineering design problems for the...
