Abstract: The static balancing of mechanical systems is an important issue because it allows one to significantly decrease the size of actuators for equivalent displacements of the end effector. Indeed, the actuators do not have to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1115/1.4045649
Abstract: A mechanism with lumped-compliance can be constructed by mounting springs at joints of an inverted slider crank mechanism. Different mounting schemes bring change in the stiffness performance. In this paper, a unified stiffness model is… read more here.
