Popis: Based on the topology of chains, quantitative methods are presented in order to compare all the distinct chains, with the specified number of links and degree-of-freedom (d.o.f.), (i) for workspace and rigidity, (ii) to select the joint of the input link to introduce motion, and (iii) to test isomorphism, simply and uniquely.
