Abstract: To address the issues of sedimentation of the working medium,high sealing requirements, and rapid increase in stiffness under medium- and high-frequency excitation leading to severe energy dissipation in traditional ...

Abstract: This paper aims at dealing with the deployment vibration problem of the rigid-links deployable mechanism caused by mobility bifurcation. A triangular prismoid deployable mechanism with mobility bifurcation is employed as ...

Abstract: This paper presents the design methodology for a single-mobility, large surface-deployable mechanism using irregularly shaped triangular prismoid units. First, we demonstrate that the spherical shell, as the deployed profile ...
