...Mauricio Arredondo-Soto; Enrique Cuan-Urquizo; Alfonso Gómez-Espinosa The design and analysis of prismatic compliant joints have received less attention compared to that given to revolute compliant joints, thus limiting their implementation in compliant mechanisms beyond translational stages...

... reconfiguration of a bistable structure on an aerial robot is possible. The BAT robot uses a combination of compliant mechanism design and specific transition trajectories to transition between two different flight modes. We have shown that the incorporation of the bistable mechanism enables the rejection...

...Chih-Hsing Liu; Yuan-Ping Ho; Jui-Chih Chi A compliant constant-force mechanism (CCFM) is a specific type of compliant mechanism that serves as a passive force regulation device. When subjected to a load, it undergoes deformation, resulting in an almost consistent output force regardless of changes...
