Universal Design of Compliant Mechanisms Based on Design Optimization Method

提出了一种考虑通用设计理念的柔顺机构设计方法。基于北卡罗来纳州立大学一个研究小组提出的通用设计原则，提出了几个可以定量评估的设计准则，并利用这些准则建立了柔顺机构设计的优化问题。利用数值优化技术获得最优设计构型。

In this research, a design methodology for of compliant mechanisms considering universal design concept was developed. Several design criteria that can be quantitatively evaluated are proposed based on universal design principles which were proposed by a research group in North Carolina State University, and a design optimization problem for design of compliant mechanisms is formulated using the design criteria. Numerical optimization techniques were utilized to obtain optimal design configuration.
