3D‐Printed Serial Snap‐Through Architectures for Programmable Mechanical Response
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A serial snap‐through architecture is realized using compact 3D‐printed von Mises truss units arranged in a staged cascade. Their geometry and boundary conditions program multistage mechanical responses with plateaux and re‐hardening regimes. An inverted‐compliance model predicts these behaviors and enables analytical design of programmable force ...

A Reconfigurable Leg for Walking Robots
IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2022 We present the design of a robotic leg that can seamlessly switch between a spring-suspended, and unsuspended configuration. Switching is realized by a mechanism that exploits the alternative configuration of the two-link leg.
