Synthesis of PR-/RP-chain-based compliant mechanisms – design of applications exploiting fibre reinforced material characteristics
Compliant mechanisms have several advantages, especially their smaller number of elements and therefore less movable joints. The flexural members furthermore allow an integration of special functions like balancing or locking. Synthesis methods based on the rigid body model (Howell, 2001; Sönmezv, 2...
