Design and Analysis of a Novel Compliant Mechanism with RPR Degrees of Freedom
A novel compliant mechanism with RPR degrees of freedom (DOF) is proposed where R and P represent rotation and translation DOFs, respectively. The proposed compliant mechanism is obtained from dimension synthesizing a 2-RPU-UPR rigid parallel mechanism ...

Surgical Applications of Compliant Mechanisms
Current surgical devices are mostly rigid and are made of stiff materials, even though their predominant use is on soft and wet tissues. With the emergence of compliant mechanisms (CMs), surgical tools can be designed to be flexible and made using soft materials.

Review Article: Inventory of platforms towards the design of a statically balanced six degrees of freedom compliant precision stage [PDF]
For many applications in precision engineering, a six degrees of freedom (DoF) compliant stage (CS) with zero stiffness is desirable, to deal with problems like backlash, friction, lubrication, and at the same time, reduce the actuation force.

Revised Force Control Using a Compliant Sensor with a Position Controlled Robot [PDF]
A different way of force control is presented, that is specially advantageous for position controlled robots. Instead of usual force control laws we rely on the well tuned position control loop and just use the force sensor to measure the target pose or ...
