The Topological Analysis of Compliant Mechanisms
23rd Biennial Mechanisms Conference: Machine Elements and Machine Dynamics, 1994Abstract Following the topological synthesis of mechanisms, a topological analysis constitutes the second phase of the type-synthesis process. Topological analysis involves investigating distinct ways of specifying inputs, outputs and joint types to satisfy the functional requirements.

Design of Distributed Compliant Mechanisms
Mechanics Based Design of Structures and Machines, 2003Abstract The optimization problem formulations currently used to synthesize compliant mechanism topologies aim to maximize the flexibility for obtaining the desired output motion while maximizing the overall stiffness for satisfactorily bearing the applied loads.

Magneto-Elastic Compliant Mechanisms
Volume 6C: 18th Biennial Conference on Mechanical Vibration and Noise, 2001Abstract The motivation for this work has been a variety of motions like navigation of pipelines, insertion operations in assembly, and gripping actions, which require the adaptation of the mechanism to the external constraints, rather than avoid them.

Compliant Mechanisms for Robotic Ankles
Volume 6A: 37th Mechanisms and Robotics Conference, 2013We have developed a compliant robotic tendon mechanism for a robotic ankle. In this paper, we analyze the differences between a stiff and compliant robotic tendon versus a stiff and compliant slider crank mechanism. The compliant, slider-crank mechanism reduces peak forces and speed required by an actuator at the ankle.

Compliant transmission mechanisms
2018Classical human-engineered transmission mechanisms such as linkages, gears, and couplings are well established designs which made out of multiple parts and rigid hinges. However, these mechanisms impose disadvantages such as wear, friction, low precision and reliability, need for assembly and lubrications, and difficulty for miniaturization.

Mechanisms of Compliant Shells
2019Thin shells are three dimensional curved solids with a thickness that is small compared to the two other dimensions. For structural engineers, traditional rigid thin shells are some of the most efficient structural typologies. The curvature and continuity that characterizes them are the source of their high stiffness under loading.

Compliant Parallel-Guiding Mechanisms
Volume 2A: 24th Biennial Mechanisms Conference, 1996Abstract The rigid-link parallel-guiding (or parallelogram) mechanism is perhaps one of the simplest closed-loop mechanisms to analyze. Compliant parallel-guiding mechanisms, often called plate-spring mechanisms, are in common use in many applications. Advances in compliant mechanism modeling and synthesis have provided an opportunity to
