Multi-Material Topology Optimization of Flexure Hinges Using Element Stacking Method
Traditional flexure hinges are designed by using a single material, and their performance is inadequate, compared to the ideal hinge. This paper presents a topology-optimization design method for multi-material flexure hinges based on the element stacking method. A topology optimization model for mu...
