Design and Analysis of a Stiffness-Enhanced 3-P<u>P</u>S Parallel Mechanism for Fault-Tolerant Underwater Vectored Thrusters

Vectored thrusters can significantly improve the maneuverability of underwater vehicles. However, due to the harsh underwater environment and severe working conditions, the thrust-vectoring device needs to be designed with high stiffness and high reliability. In this paper, a 3-degree-of-freedom (3-...
