Abstract:Biomimetic robots have been the focus of many studies for the last decades since the motion in nature is accomplished through the bending of the flexible arms once subjected to an input force, displacement or torque as opposed to their rigid body counterparts thereby increasing the workspace. This study presents the design, analysis, and modeling of a novel monolithically designed compliant mechanism. The mechanism consists of two translational springs, three sliding carts, housing for the two servo motors, an… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
