Position-Space-Based Design of a Symmetric Spatial Translational Compliant Mechanism for Micro-/Nano-Manipulation

Symmetry enables excellent motion performance of compliant mechanisms, such as minimized parasitic motion, reduced cross-axis coupling, mitigated buckling, and decreased thermal sensitivity. However, most existing symmetric compliant mechanisms are heavily over-constrained due to the fact that they...
