Email: Yurii.Andrieiev@khpi.edu.ua
Research profile: Scientific research is related to the development and implementation of analytical computer algorithms and programs in the field of multibody discrete mechanical systems with planar and spatial motions with geometric and kinematic constraints, including nonholonomic, unilateral, and nonstationary constraints. Nowadays, these are various robotic systems – spatial manipulators, walking and other transport robots. Such algorithms include analytical computer algorithms for solving direct and inverse kinematics problems of spatial mechanisms of modern robots, calculations of steady-state and transient dynamic processes in such mechanisms and machines, and implementation of such algorithms in the developed special computer algebra system SCAS KiDyM.
