Abstract

An energy approach is utilized to determine mechanical advantage in compliant mechanisms by duly accounting for lost work due to deformation. Three mechanical advantage types are then defined which examine the isolated influences of various parameters. Finally, a case study is investigated to exemplify these definitions and demonstrate resulting trends in mechanical advantage.
