Optimizing the Geometry of Flexure System Topologies Using the Boundary Learning Optimization Tool

We introduce a new computational tool called the Boundary Learning Optimization Tool (BLOT) that identifies the boundaries of the performance capabilities achieved by general flexure system topologies if their geometric parameters are allowed to vary from their smallest allowable feature sizes to th...
