Traditional notch flexure hinges often exhibit local stress, which limits the range of motion and reduces the fatigue life of flexure-based mechanisms. This paper proposes a conceptual method for designing flexure hinges with distributed stress by using the topology optimization approach. The topology optimization model is developed. The objective function is presented by equally minimizing the ratio of axial displacement and bending displacement and the maximum stress. A global P-norm stress measure is used to reduce the stress level of flexure hinges. The solid isotropic material with penalization (SIMP) is adopted to describing the topology optimization problem. Numerical examples are used to demonstrate the validity of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":118389,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125501848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Rolling and Sliding of Spheres Inside Horizontal Channels","authors":"E. Demir, S. Yeşilyurt","doi":"10.1109/MARSS.2018.8481219","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/MARSS.2018.8481219","url":null,"abstract":"Low Reynolds Number rolling and sliding motion of spheres inside cylindrical channels filled with glycerin is investigated. Experimental data are collected for channel/sphere radius ratios $(r_{ch}/r_{sph})$ of 1.6 and 3, where the magnetic sphere is actuated at frequencies between 0.1-50 Hz. Magnetically actuated sphere is rotated clockwise about the y-axis, where the central axis of the cylindrical channel is designated as the z-axis and the distance between the sphere center and the channel axis is measured in x-direction. For $r_{ch}/r_{sph}$ ratio of 3, we observe that the sphere translates in positive z-direction, performing “rolling”. However, at smaller $r_{ch}/r_{sph}$ ratio of 1.6, where the sphere is closely fitted inside the cylindrical channel, as the actuation frequency is increased, transition from rolling to “sliding” in the opposite direction is observed, which describes the motion of a sphere translating in negative z-direction despite its clockwise rotation about y-axis. Further increase in actuation frequency results in saturation of the lateral velocity of sphere due to step-out in both cases. Experimental results are compared to the predictions of the existing analytical models in the literature. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model validated against the data found in the literature is utilized to help extending the existing data and interpreting the experimental results.","PeriodicalId":118389,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"09 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127145547","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, modeling of compliant, multi-body, 3 dimensional microrobots is considerably more difficult than traditional rigid-body robot kinematics. In this paper, we formulate a kinematic modeling methodology applicable to a broad class of compliant microrobots. Such models can be used prior to fabrication to evaluate mechanism dexterity, precision and sensitivity to dimensional tolerances. They can also be used for microrobot visualization, control synthesis and for fast parametric optimization. We exemplify our approach by modeling the AFAM, an Articulated Four Axes Microrobot, constructed via 3D microassembly from Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) compliant building blocks. The AFAM is a novel mm-scale microrobot designed for nano-positioning tasks in future wafer-scale microfactories. We derive the kinematic model of the AFAM using a computationally scalable constraint optimization approach that can be used equally effectively for both forward and inverse kinematics. Simulation results using the robot operating system (ROS) programming framework are presented in the paper.","PeriodicalId":118389,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132238499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It incorporates two types of parallel mechanism, namely, flexible and rigid body based. The flexure-based gripper is intended to improve the dexterity and flexibility of the grasping and release of micro-objects. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was employed to evaluate the performance of the microgripper's design parameters. The workspace of proposed mechanism was obtained using a kinematic model. The FEA results showed that the maximum stroke of grasping and transferring are 476 11m and 88 11m, respectively. The displacement amplification ratios are 15.87 and 2.93 for grasping and transferring, respectively. In the worst-case scenario, the maximum equivalent (von-Mises) stress and minimum safety factor of the designed microgripper were obtained as 3.83 MPa and 13.1, respectively, this confirms that the microgripper performs well without any failure. The concept of inverse kinematics was implemented on the proposed mechanism in FEA model and utilized to investigate the mi-crogrippers motion and coupling effects. Computational results indicated that the proposed 2-DOF microgripper can achieve accurate motion trajectory during grasping and releasing micro-objects.","PeriodicalId":118389,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125274938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The working principle of piezoelectric stick-slip actuating combines the merits of piezoelectric actuating and stick-slip actuating and is a preferable option to design nanopositioning stage with the advantage of high resolution, large stoke and compact mechanical structure. However, the existing techniques in the design of piezoelectric stick-slip driving nanopositioning stage paid little attention to the adjustable friction force which significantly affects the motion properties and load capability. Our goal was to develop a novel piezoelectric stick-slip driving nanopositioning stage that the friction force can be adjusted, consequently, the properties of high resolution, high speed and large load are ensure. To do this we developed an independent driving module including piezoelectric stack actuator, flexure hinge, driving object and preloading screw that installed between base and slider, and the friction force is adjusted by operating adjusting screw installed in the base. Moreover, a power supply circuit of nanopositiong stage was designed and the impact of output voltage magnitude, frequency and step time on the motion of nanopositioning stage was analyzed in order to design the more precise control signal.","PeriodicalId":118389,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133451031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
