Design of thermal expansion compliant mechanisms and structures by evolutionary optimization
This work describes a new approach for design synthesis of thermal expansion compliant structures and mechanisms. In this work, a morphological scheme is used to represent the topology of structure. This scheme models the topology of a structure using Bezier curves with variable thickness.
