Design of Compliant Mechanisms for the Specified Output Displacement

چکیده
In chapter 3, the compliant mechanism has been designed by topology optimization with rectangular geometry as the basic geometry. In chapter 4, the work has been extended to taper and hexogonal basic geometries. In these studies, for the given input conditions, maximizing the GA and MA have been kept as the objectives. However, in many real life application, we need to obtain a specified output displacement at a given location for the given input conditions. Such an attempt has been attempted in this chapter. Using ANSYS, such a study can be done using a trial and error approach. However, such a study without trail and error approach is possible using matlab software. Hence, design of compliant mechanism for the specified output displacement under given input conditions is attempted using the matlab software. The details are presented in this chapter.

Topology and size optimization methods are used to design compliant mechanisms that produce a constant output force for a given actuator characteristic of linearly decreasing force versus displacement. The design procedure consists of two stages: (i) topology optimization using two-dimensional (2-D) continuum parametrization, and (ii) size optimization of the beam-element abstraction derived fr...
