Abstract
A control algorithm to manipulate the input actuation forces on hinge-free compliant mechanism models synthesized utilizing continuum topology optimization formulations is implemented and successfully tested in this work, such that the mechanisms follow their specified trajectories and nearby trajectories with high degree of accuracy even when confronted with different resistance forces. The validity of the proposed formulations is tested and demonstrated on number of practical problems involving finite deformation.
