Resumen

This article develops a modular procedure to perform force-displacement modeling of planar flexurebased compliant mechanisms (CMs) -- The procedure is mostly suitable for planar lumped CMs -- To achieve the position analysis of CMs requires: (i) to implement the kinematic analysis as for ordinary mechanisms, (ii) to solve equilibrium problem by means of an static analysis and (iii) to model the flexures behavior through a deflection analysis -- The novel contribution of this article relies on the fact that a division strategy of the CM into Assur subchainsm is implemented, so that any CM subjected to such disaggregation can be accurately modeled -- For this purpose a mathematical model for leaf-spring flexure type is presented and used through this paper -- However any other flexure model can be used instead -- To support the technique, a three Degrees–Of–Freedom (3-DOF) flexure-based parallel mechanism is used as case study -- Results are compared to a Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
