Abstract Details

2020, Master of Science (MS), Ohio University, Mechanical Engineering (Engineering and Technology).
Stewart Platforms have been used for simulation because of their strength and position accuracy. Simulators have remained large structures that contained internal replicas of airplane cockpits and/or driving seats. These large structures come at high prices, it would be beneficial for the training and gaming industry or markets to make smaller more affordable platforms that can perform at or near the same motion performance of large expensive platforms. An added benefit to include for the training community would be to add portability so the simulator can travel to a classroom setting. In this thesis, tools such as MATLAB and Mechanical Analysis are used to design a smaller, more affordable platform that is capable of similar performance capabilities to professional motion platforms.
