A Compact 2-DOF Piezoelectric-Driven Platform Based on “Z-Shaped” Flexure Hinges
Micromachines, 2017 A compact 2-DOF (two degrees of freedom) piezoelectric-driven platform for 3D cellular bio-assembly systems has been proposed based on “Z-shaped” flexure hinges. Multiple linear motions with high resolution both in x and y directions are achieved. The “Z-

Improving Support Stiffness of Flexure Mechanisms by Statically Balancing [PDF]
, 2021 Static balance eliminates the actuation stiffness of flexure mechanisms and thereby reduces the motor effort and unwanted heat production. However, this typically comes at the cost of lowered support stiffness and stroke. This paper aims to show that the maximum stresses in the flexures may be reduced as well by static balance.

Static Balance of a Flexure-Based Four-Bar Mechanism: Less Torque with More Preload [PDF]
, 2022 Static balance eliminates the inherent actuation stiffness of flexure-based mechanisms. In this paper we investigate how, and under which conditions, preloading in the joints can approximately balance a flexure-based four-bar mechanism.

Dynamic and Static Flexural Rigidity of Fabric.
Sen'i Gakkaishi, 1993 The relationship between the dynamic and static flexural rigidities of fabrics was discussed. The dynamic rigidity was measured by a vibrating-reed method, and the static one by a KES pure bending test. The static flexural rigidity was found to be several times as large as the dynamic one.
