Abstract: Compliant kaleidocycles can be widely used in a variety of applications, including deployable structures, origami structures, and metamorphic robots, due to their unique features of continuous rotatability and multistability. ...

Abstract: This paper presents a method for topology optimization of large-deflection compliant mechanisms with multiple inputs and outputs by considering the coupling issue. First, the objectives of the design problem are posed by ...

Abstract: This article presents a modified evolutionary topology optimization method for designing compliant constant force mechanisms (CFMs). CFM is defined as the mechanism that can generate constant force in the desired input ...
