Numerical Simulation of Bending Stiffness Analysis for Spring Linkage Applied to In-Pipe Robot

Spring linkage can be applied to in-pipe robots for connecting different modules together and can make it pass through elbows more easily. However, its stiffness cannot be set to be too hard or too soft. This paper tries to make a balance between the compressive stiffness and the bending stiffness o...
