Optimal synthesis of force-generating planar four-link mechanisms
This thesis presents a technique for the optimal synthesis of planar four-bar linkages for specified force or torque generation. Unlike most previous research in mechanism force synthesis, this thesis targets linkage applications for which the mechanical advantage is prescribed but the position fu...
