Identification of Macro- and Micro-Compliant Mechanism Configurations Resulting in Bistable Behavior
The purpose of this research is to identify the configurations of several mechanism classes which result in bistable behavior. Bistable mechanisms have use in many applications, such as switches, clasps, closures, hinges, and so on. A powerful method for the design of such mechanisms would allow the...
