RISOptimal Synthesis of Zero-Stiffness Compliant Mechanisms Based on Potential Energy Principle
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Zero-stiffness compliant mechanisms (ZSCM) can provide constant or zero force over a range of motion without the issues caused by the inherent stiffness of compliant mechanisms (CM). The large-deflection curved beams in ...
Jacobian-Based Topology Optimization Method Using an Improved Stiffness Evaluation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A Jacobian-based topology optimization method is recently proposed for compliant parallel mechanisms (CPMs), in which the CPMs' Jacobian matrix and characteristic stiffness are optimized simultaneously to achieve kinematic ...

Large-Deflection Analysis of General Beams in Contact-Aided Compliant Mechanisms Using Chained Pseudo-Rigid-Body Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The nonlinear analysis and design of contact-aided compliant mechanisms (CCMs) are challenging. This paper presents a nonlinear method for analyzing the deformation of general beams that contact rigid surfaces in CCMs. The ...
