Compact LET Arrays for Origami-Based Mechanisms

open access: yesRobotics
Lamina Emergent Torsional (LET) arrays can be used to replace creases in origami-based mechanisms. They can be made of planar materials, which makes them compatible with many designs.

A modified pseudo-rigid-body modeling approach for compliant mechanisms with fixed-guided beam flexures [PDF]

open access: yesMechanical Sciences, 2017
In the present paper, we investigate a modified pseudo-rigid-body (MPRB) modeling approach for compliant mechanisms with fixed-guided beam flexures by considering the nonlinear effects of center-shifting and load-stiffening.

Design and Analysis of the Attitude Adjustment Mechanism for a Rotor MAV Based on Compliant Mechanisms

open access: yesAerospace, 2021
Traditional swash plates generally have numerous parts, which may result in the abrasion of key parts. In this paper, to avoid the problems of traditional swash plates, a low-cost and high-reliability rotor micro-aerial vehicle integrated attitude ...

Plant movements as concept generators for the development of biomimetic compliant mechanisms.

open access: yesIntegrative and Comparative Biology, 2020
Plant movements are of increasing interest for biomimetic approaches where hinge-free compliant mechanisms (flexible structures) for applications e.g. in architecture, soft robotics, and medicine are developed.

Frustration propagation in tubular foldable mechanisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2023
Shell mechanisms are patterned surface-like structures with compliant deformation modes that allow them to change shape drastically. Examples include many origami and kirigami tessellations as well as other periodic truss mechanisms. The deployment paths

Therapeutic Apheresis for Intravenous Methylprednisolone‐Refractory Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder: Clinical and Radiological Outcomes in a Single‐Center Case Series

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.
