Compliant Constant Output/ Input Force Mechanisms- Topology Optimization with Contact
B V S Nagendra Reddy, Vitthal Manohar Khatik, Burkhard Corves +1
We synthesize monolithic topologies of constant output (CoFM) and input (CiFM) force mechanisms. During synthesis, we capture all possible aspects of member deformation including f…

Topology synthesis of a 3-kink contact-aided compliant switch
B V S Nagendra Reddy, Anupam Saxena
A topology synthesis approach to design 2D Contact-aided Compliant Mechanisms (CCMs) to trace output paths with three or more kinks is presented. Synthesis process uses three diffe…
