The use of the generalized links to determine the minimum inertial parameters of robots

Abstract
This article presents a new method to determine the minimum set of inertial parameters of robots. The method permits to determine most of the regrouped parameters by means of recursive closed form relations. It is based on the use of a new expression for the kinetic and potential energy of the robot as function of the inertial parameters of the generalized links. The demonstration is seen to be easier than the previous methods and gives a clear idea about the physical meaning of the regrouped parameters.
