“…Generalized stiffness matrix (2) is physically nonhomogeneous. Therefore, it can be interpreted as a block matrix composed of four physically homogeneous blocks (submatrices): K Ttranslational stiffness block, K R -rotational stiffness block, and K TR and K RT -coupling blocks which represent interrelation (crosstalk) between the translational and rotational displacements of the robot TCP, [13]. Diagonal blocks K T and K R are full submatrices, which implies that coupling phenomenon is also present within the physically homogeneous subdomains.…”
