Abstract
Kinematic chains differ due to the structural differences between them. The location of links, joints and loops differ in each kinematic chain to make it unique. Two similar kinematic chains will produce similar motion properties and hence are avoided. The performance of these kinematic chains also depends on the individual topology, i.e. the placement of its entities. In the present work an attempt has been made to compare a family of kinematic chains based on its structural properties. The method is based on identifying the chains structural property by using its JOINT LOOP connectivity table. Nomenclature J - Number of joints, F - Degree of freedom of the chain, N - Number of links, L - Number of basic loops (independent loops plus one peripheral loop).
