This study was conducted with the objective of predicting the accuracy of robotic manipulator models in contact applications. A number of computational robot models, including lumped-parameters models and flexible-body elastic models were used and refined to evaluate the behavior of a manipulator under static, quasi-static and dynamic loading conditions. The simulations were then compared with experimental measurements conducted in the forms of static, quasi-static and dynamic compliance-evaluation series. Additionally, contact application models were constructed and utilized to simulate and assess the associated accuracy level of contact processes involving robotic manipulators. Results included comprehensive joint-space maps of the manipu...
