Safety Improvements for Personnel and Vehicles in Short-Term Construction Sites Open
Despite all efforts to enhance safety, construction sites remain a major location for traffic accidents. Short-term construction sites, in particular, face limitations in implementing extensive safety measures due to their condensed timeli…

Kinematic analysis of a rolling tensegrity structure with spatially curved members Open
In this work, a tensegrity structure with spatially curved members is applied as rolling locomotion system. The actuation of the structure allows a variation of the originally cylindrical shape to a conical shape. Moreover, the structure i…

Influence of Elastomeric Tensioned Members on the Characteristics of Compliant Tensegrity Structures in Soft Robotic Applications Open
The use of mechanically prestressed compliant structures in soft robotics is a recently discussed topic. Tensegrity structures, consisting of a set of rigid disconnected compressed members connected to a continuous net of prestressed elast…

An Artificial Vibrissa-Like Sensor for Detection of Flows Open
In nature, there are several examples of sophisticated sensory systems to sense flows, e.g., the vibrissae of mammals. Seals can detect the flow of their prey, and rats are able to perceive the flow of surrounding air. The vibrissae are ar…

Contour-independent design equations for the calculation of the rotational properties of commonly used and polynomial flexure hinges Open
Flexure hinges are often used as revolute joints in high-precision compliant mechanism, but without simulations the accurate prediction of their contour-dependent deformation and especially planar motion behavior is a challenging task. Thi…

General design equations for the rotational stiffness, maximal angular deflection and rotational precision of various notch flexure hinges Open
Notch flexure hinges are often used as revolute joints in high-precise compliant mechanisms, but their contour-dependent deformation and motion behaviour is currently difficult to predict. This paper presents general design equations for t…
