Homotopy-based Synthesis

Homotopy-Based Synthesis is a computational method in kinematic synthesis that employs homotopy continuation techniques to systematically trace solution paths from a known mechanism design to a desired target configuration, thereby enabling the discovery of novel linkages through continuous deformation of algebraic constraints.
