... for a generalized bisymmetric spatial beam flexure is presented in this paper. The strain energy, expressed in terms of the end-displacement of the beam, considers geometric nonlinearities for intermediate deformations, enabling the analysis of flexure mechanisms over a finite range of motion. The generalizations...

... determination. This strain energy expression allows a designer to treat the spatial beam as a single lumped entity, with all the relevant nonlinearities captured, when analyzing a flexure mechanism consisting of multiple spatial beam flexures using energy methods. Overall, the transverse load...
