Research on a Variable-Stiffness Joint and Its Application in Actuators

Variable-stiffness actuators can flexibly adjust the overall or local stiffness of a structure, thus enabling reconstruction, adaptation, and locking capabilities that can meet a wide range of task requirements. However, the programmable design and manufacture of three-dimensional (3D) variable-stif...
