On Generating Expected Kinetostatic Nonlinear Stiffness Characteristics by the Kinematic Limb-Singularity of a Crank-Slider Linkage with Springs

Abstract Being different from avoidance of singularity of closed-loop linkages, this paper employs the kinematic singularity to construct compliant mechanisms with expected nonlinear stiffness characteristics to enrich the methods of compliant mechanisms synthesis. The theory for generating kinetost...
