Abstract: Flexure bearings provide precise, low-maintenance operation but have a limited range of motion compared to conventional bearings. Here, we introduce a new class of bearing—the metamorphic flexure bearing—that not only ...

Abstract: Abstract. Compliant mechanisms have significant potential in precision applications due to their ability to guide motion without contact. However, an inherent vulnerability to fatigue and mechanical failure has hindered ...
