Excellent- More about Compliant Mechanisms: Design of Flexure Hinges
The second edition of Compliant Mechanisms: Design of Flexure Hinges provides practical answers to the design and analysis of devices that incorporate flexible hinges. It uses a bottom-up compliance approach to generate complex-shaped flexible-hinge mechanisms and employs the finite element method to study their quasi-static and dynamic performances. The book offers easy-to-use mathematical tools to investigate a wide range of flexible-hinge configurations and applications and serves as a reference for students, researchers, and professionals in mechanical, aerospace, biomedical engineering, robotics, and micro-/nanosystems.

The second edition of Compliant Mechanisms: Design of Flexure Hinges is a comprehensive and rigorous guide to the design and analysis of devices incorporating flexible hinges. By employing a bottom-up compliance (flexibility) approach, complex-shaped flexible-hinge mechanisms are generated from basic elastic segments. This approach is then used to study the quasi-static and dynamic performances of these compliant mechanisms, employing the same compliance method and classical finite element analysis.
The book offers a user-friendly mathematical framework to explore a wide range of flexible-hinge configurations and applications in two- or three-dimensional spaces. It provides detailed explanations of key concepts, such as stress concentration, yield strength, precision of rotation, temperature effects, layered flexible hinges, and piezoelectric actuation/sensing. Numerous solved examples are included to illustrate the practical applications of these principles.
Designed for students, researchers, academics, and professionals involved in the field of precision flexible-hinge mechanisms, this book serves as a valuable reference. It offers a comprehensive coverage of the subject matter, making it an essential resource for those seeking to investigate and optimize these devices in various industries, including robotics, aerospace, and medical devices.
