title = "A multidimensional acceleration sensor based on 3rrprr decoupling parallel mechanism: Analysis and experiments",
abstract = "Since parallel mechanisms have become one of the prospective directions for the structural design of sensor, how to improve the mechanism topology and enhance the performances should be well addressed. In this research, a novel multidimensional acceleration sensor based on 3RRPRR fully decoupling parallel elastic-body mechanism is proposed. The physical prototype is manufactured for deeply investigating on the actual performances. The finite-element analysis of resultant stress, strain and deformations is conducted based upon different input conditions to show the reliability of the proposed sensor structure. A self-developed calibration platform is used for the static calibration to verify its sensitivity and linearity. Consequently, two trial experiments for measuring of human motions are designed to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the parallel legged accelerometer.",
