Masters Theses
"Compliant mechanisms have shown a great deal of potential in the last few decades in providing better solutions to design problems with numerous benefits; however, their use has been limited due to current challenges in the material selection. With ever increasing focus on the applications of compliant mechanisms, it is necessary to find alternatives to the existing materials and methods of prototyping. The purpose of this work is to develop a methodology for pseudo-rigid-body models of compliant segments with compliant inserts, comprised of a resilient material placed between the layers of a softer material, to alleviate any creep and strength …
