Checkers Directory Reference Detailed DescriptionIntroductionThis series of linkages belongs to the family of hinged tesselations. It illustrates the solver on simulating large deployable mechanisms. The tesselation shown above deploys with a one degree of freedom self-motion, and can actually be folded to occupy a single square. GeometryEach linkage consists of n x n (with n uneven) square bodies hinged together at their corners by means of revolute joints to form a regular checkers pattern. FormulationsThis directory includes the following Checkers mechanisms:
