Compliant Mechanisms and Robotics
Compliant Mechanisms and Robotics
The research in Compliant Mechanisms and Robotics focuses on applications in Precision Engineering, MEMS, and Bio-medical Devices including:
Nonlinear Analytic Solutions of Euler-Bernoulli Beams, Timoshenko Beams, Compliant Hinges/Pivots and Leaves/Blades/Sheets including the Post-buckling Analysis; Synthesis Method, Design, Modelling and Optimization of Positive/Negative/Zero-Stiffness Compliant Mechanisms; Creative Applications of Compliant Mechanisms such as Manipulators, Bio-Medical Devices, Sensors, and Grippers; Kinematics and Dynamics of Serial and Parallel Manipulators; Origami-inspired/Bio-inspired Mechanisms/Robots.
Several examples for the previously conducted works are shown as below:

Fig. (b): Monolithic 3-PPPRR XYZ CPM with Redundant Life (IMechE Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2014);
Fig. (c): Decoupled 3-legged XYZ CPM with Overlapping Stiffness Centers for Minimised Parasitic Rotations (Robotica, 2014);
Fig. (d): Under-actuated Bionic Hand actuated by Human Shoulder through Cable (Journal of Mechanical Design, 2009, in Chinese);
