Analysis of LEMs slider mechanisms based on equivalent coupling stiffness

open access: yes工程科学学报, 2016
The flexure hinge is the key part to implement the movement of lamina emergent mechanisms(LEMs). Designing a flexure hinge with good flexibility and high accuracy is always the key problem to research compliant mechanisms.

Design optimization of a flexure spring used in small-sized ultra-precise optical instrument

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Small-sized ultra-precise optical devices require compact compliant ortho-planar springs (COPS) aka. flexure springs, for precise, frictionless linear motion which depends highly on the design. A self-developed arm-hinge-linked design, named “Panto-style”

Large Stroke Performance Optimization of Spatial Flexure Hinges [PDF]

open access: yesVolume 6: 1st Biennial International Conference on Dynamics for Design; 14th International Conference on Advanced Vehicle Technologies, 2012
Flexure hinges inherently lose stiffness in supporting directions when deflected. In this paper a method is presented for optimizing the geometry of flexure hinges, while supporting stiffnesses are retained. These hinges are subjected to a load and deflected an angle of up to ±20°.

Performance optimization of large stroke flexure hinges for high stiffness and eigenfrequency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Two flexure hinge types are optimized for high support stiffness and high first unwanted eigenfrequency for two different working ranges, ±5.7° and ±20°. We show how multiple performance specifications lead to different designs with different performance.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Design and Experimental Research of a Novel Stick-Slip Type Piezoelectric Actuator

open access: yesMicromachines, 2017
A linear piezoelectric actuator based on the stick-slip principle is presented and tested in this paper. With the help of changeable vertical preload force flexure hinge, the designed linear actuator can achieve both large travel stick-slip motion and ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

A Twisted String, Flexure Hinges Approach for Design of a Wearable Haptic Thimble

open access: yesActuators, 2021
Wearable haptic devices in the shape of actuated thimbles are used to render the sense of touch in teleoperation and virtual reality scenarios. The design of similar devices has to comply with concurring requirements and constraints: lightweight and ...

Material effects on strawbale wall seismic capacity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Strawbale construction is a sustainable, viable alternative to conventional building practices. As a newly introduced appendix to the International Residential Code (IRC), the strawbale construction requirements may benefit from further evaluation and ...
