The Pseudo-Rigid-Body Model for Dynamic Predictions of Macro and Micro Compliant Mechanisms

This work discusses the dynamic predictions of compliant mechanisms using the Pseudo-Rigid-Body model (PRBM). In order to improve the number of mechanisms that can be modeled, this research develops and identifies several key concepts in the behavior of beam segments where both ends are fixed to a r...
