Topology Optimization of Flexure Hinges

2018
This chapter is devoted to developing a systematic method for the topology optimization of flexure hinges. The main research work includes: (1) Developing basic topology optimization models for translational and revolute flexure hinges. The objective function for the topology optimization of flexure hinges is to maximize the compliance in the ...

Topology optimization of distributed flexure hinges with desired performance

Engineering optimization (Print), 2020
Traditional notch flexure hinges have been widely used in precision engineering, but the lumped notch configuration limits the range of motion. This article presents a synthesis method for designing flexure hinges with distributed configurations using ...

Lumped-Parameter Inertia Model for Flexure Hinges

Mechanics Based Design of Structures and Machines, 2004
Abstract The article describes the analysis to derive the lumped-parameter inertia properties for variable cross-section flexure hinges for potential use in modeling, designing, and optimizing of these components in the resonant/dynamic range. Inertia fractions corresponding to one of the flexure's 6 degrees of freedom are formulated for single-, two-,

Space focusing mirror assembly with flexure hinges

SPIE Proceedings, 2014
Focusing mirror assembly (FMA) is an important component of large space telescope. It can compensate the telescope's defocus caused by environmental factors. Telescope launching vibration and shock, as well as the structure stress of kinematic movement have great impact on focusing mirror assembly. To solve the problems of defocus result from vibration,

Notch flexure hinges: An effective theory

Review of Scientific Instruments, 2002
This article presents effective tractable equations for rotational compliance (stiffness) of a simple monolithic flexure hinge with circular (radius R and crosspiece thickness t), elliptical [at semiaxis ax, ay, elliptical ratio ε (=ax/ay)] and other cross sections.
