Modeling of a Symmetric Five-Bar Displacement Amplification Compliant Mechanism for Energy Harvesting

This paper presents an analytical model to determine a closed form mathematical representation for the output displacement of a displacement amplification compliant mechanism used for energy harvesting. A symmetric five-bar compliant mechanism with right-circular and corner-filleted flexure hinges w...
