RISEvaluating Compliant Hinge Geometries for Origami Inspired Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Origamiinspired design is an emerging field capable of producing compact and efficient designs. Compliant hinges are proposed as a way to replicate the folding motion of paper when using nonpaper materials. Compliant hinges ...
A Family of Dual Segment Compliant Joints Suitable for Use as Surrogate Folds
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Origamiinspired design is an emerging field capable of producing compact and efficient designs. The object of a surrogate fold is to provide a foldlike motion in a nonpaper material without undergoing yielding. Compliant ...
An Approach to Designing Origami Adapted Aerospace Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An approach to designing products based on adapting patterns and behaviors from origami is presented. The approach is illustrated by showing its capability for developing mechanism applications for aerospacebased systems. ...
Membrane-Enhanced Lamina Emergent Torsional Joints for Surrogate Folds
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Lamina emergent compliant mechanisms (including origami-adapted compliant mechanisms) are mechanical devices that can be fabricated from a planar material (a lamina) and have motion that emerges out of the fabrication ...
Effects of Panel Misalignment in a Deployable Origami-Based Optical Array
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Deployable origami-based arrays can offer many benefits for a wide variety of engineering applications. However, alignment in the deployed state is a primary challenge of these arrays; in optical systems, local (single ...
Laser Forming of Compliant Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Small-scale flexible (or compliant) mechanisms are valuable in replacing rigid components while retaining comparable motion and behavior. However, fabricating such mechanisms on this scale (from 0.01 to 10 cm) proves ...
Considering Boundary Conditions in the Design of Compliant Mechanisms With Desired Force Profiles
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Compliant mechanisms can be designed to exhibit a variety of force–deflection curves. Demonstrating a specific force behavior is an integral part of many of their applications. In this work, we select several fundamental ...
An Energy-Based Framework for Nonlinear Kinetostatic Modeling of Compliant Mechanisms Utilizing Beam Flexures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Although energy-based methods have advantages over the Newtonian methods for kinetostatic modeling, the geometric nonlinearities inherent in deflections of compliant mechanisms preclude most of the energy-based theorems. ...
Selecting and Optimizing Origami Flasher Pattern Configurations for Finite-Thickness Deployable Space Arrays
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Design parameters of the origami flasher pattern can be modified to meet a variety of design objectives for deployable array applications. The focus of this paper is to improve the understanding of design parameters, ...
Force–Deflection Modeling for Generalized Origami Waterbomb Base Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The origami waterbomb base (WB) is a singlevertex bistable mechanism that can be generalized to accommodate various geometric, kinematic, and kinetic needs. The traditional WB consists of a square sheet that has four ...
