Modeling and analysis of Compliant Cantilever Beam
Akshay Vidap, Dr. Bhagyesh Deshmukh
Abstract: Micromechanisms are essential in the development of microsystems. Conventional mechanisms involve pin joints which have the typical limitations of backlash. To overcome issue of backlash a new class of mechanisms known as compliant mechanisms is developed. The design of compliant mechanism can be carried out using lumped design and or distributed design approach. In this paper, a detailed analysis and simulation of a cantilever beam (lumped System) is presented. Effect of radius variation and constraint condition on the lumped cantilever beam is also carried out.
Keywords: Compliant mechanism lumped and distributed approach, Cantilever beam
