RISA Symmetric Multichamber Hydraulic Cylinder With Variable Piston Area: An Approach to Compact and Efficient Electrohydrostatic Actuation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an approach for designing symmetric (effective cylinder area during extension is the same as that during retraction) multichamber cylinders with discretely variable piston area. The design methodology ...
Model Based Design of a Low Cost and Compliant Low Profile Prosthetic Foot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes the design of a simple and low-cost compliant low-profile prosthetic foot based on a cantilevered beam of uniform strength. The prosthetic foot is developed such that the maximum stress experienced by ...
Optimal Transmission Ratio Selection for Electric Motor Driven Actuators With Known Output Torque and Motion Trajectories
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a method for selecting the optimal transmission ratio for an electric motor for applications for which the desired torque and motion at the transmission output are known a priori. Representative ...
