A passive universal grasping mechanism based on an everting shell
Mythra V. S. Balakuntala, Safvan Palathingal, G. K. Ananthasuresh
A passive monolithic compliant grasping mechanism that works based on the eversion of an elastically deformable bistable shell is conceptualized. It comprises grasping arms made of…
A hinge effect that anomalously decreases the stiffness of slender fiber-reinforced composite structures
Vivek Khatua, Debashish Das, G. K. Ananthasuresh
We present experimental evidence for an anomalous decrease in stiffness in a fiber-reinforced polymer composite because of the embedded fiber. A shell with carbon fiber showed abou…
Selectively embedding multiple spatially steered fibers in polymer composite parts made using vat photopolymerization
Vivek Khatua, B. Gurumoorthy, G. K. Ananthasuresh
Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composite (FRPC) parts are mostly made as laminates, shells, or surfaces wound with 2D fiber patterns even after the emergence of additive manufacturing. M…
Switching Dynamics of Shallow Arches
Priyabrata Maharana, G. K. Ananthasuresh
This paper presents an analytical method to predict the delayed switching dynamics of nonlinear shallow arches while switching from one state to another state for different loading…
Towards Optimal Heterogeneity in Lattice Structures
Yash Agrawal, G. K. Ananthasuresh
We present a multi-phase design parameterization to obtain optimized heterogeneous lattice structures. The 3D domain is discretized into a cubical grid wherein each cube has eight…
