Fatigue testing of flexure hinges for the purpose of the development of a high-precision micro manipulator [PDF]
Mechanical Sciences, 2014 An approach was initially proposed for the estimation of the maximum von Mises stress in flexure hinges. It relied on recognizing relevant stress factors that were calculated from empirical functions set up by using the finite element method. Afterwards,

Research on a Novel Flexure Hinge [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2006 A novel single axis flexure hinge named hyperbolic flexure hinge is introduced as new designs in two-dimensional monolithic mechanisms. Based on the Castigliano's second theorem, Closed-form equations are formulated for compliances to characterize both the active rotation and all other parasitic motions.
