Abstract
Based on the method of Freedom and Constraint Topology (FACT), a compliant mechanism with 3 degrees of freedom is designed. The 3 DOF are one movement and two rotations, which belongs to Case 3, Type 2. The whole stiffness matrix of the compliant mechanism is obtained. The finite element model is established for statics analysis. The results of theory analysis and finite element method are closed.
