    Investigation of different compliant mechanisms
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2024-05-14) Sea Ordaya, Alexander Javier; Alencastre Miranda, Jorge Hernán
    The use of flexible mechanisms has been increasing in the recent years. This is due of the advantages that offer with respect to rigid mechanism. However, the method to study them become more complicated. Just to mention, the mathematical equations to investigate their behavior are of a higher level, so the assistance of calculation software is required. For this reason an analytical model is developed to facilitate the study of compliant mechanism. To do this, a review of the theory involved in the calculation of compliant mechanism is made and applied in the development of the analytical model. In this case the equations derived from the Euler-Bernoulli Beam Theory were used. In order to have a contrast of results, a software that use the Finite Element Method was used. After the simulation of the structures in both models, the relative errors were obtained. In the case of the simulations to obtain the displacement due to external forces, only the first node of the structures were defined as “Clamp” and the external forces were applied to the rest of the nodes. For this investigation, nine structures were simulated. To obtain a representative relative error, an average of them were calculated, which are 5.69% and 4.28% in the x and y axis respectively. Subsequently, because in all the cases, the first node is fixed, the moment at that node were obtained and compared. The average relative error found was 1.74%. After that, the simulations to obtain the forces due to the rotation of the structures were carried out. To make the simulations, the structures rotate in the range of -0.4 rad and 0.4 rad with steps of 0.1 rad. For this investigation, 4 structures were simulated and 14 parameters were defined. The maximal relative error found was 5.05%. Finally, an study of the behavior of the normalized moment at the first node of the 4 structures when the 14 parameters vary was carried out. In this investigation it was found on one hand that the parameters R1 and R2 from the structure 3 have good influence in the curves but on the other hand, the parameters R1 and α from the structure 4 have almost no influence.

    Artificial tactile sensors for surface texture detection-finite element models and numerical treatment
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2017-02-07) Darnieder, Maximilian; Alencastre Miranda, Jorge Hernán; Behn, Carsten
    The biological example of vibrissa-type sensors in the animal realm is attributed with impressive sensing capabilities. A recently discovered ability is the surface discrimination task. Preceding research on the topic elaborated certain hypotheses for the functionality of the sensor. The scientific work is predominantly based on an empirical approach closely related to the biological example. Complex and highly nonlinear mechanical interrelations and tribological aspects of the contact frequently remain unconsidered. In the interplay between the properties of the biological example and the desired technical realization of the sensor concept, the present thesis incrementally develops a complex mechanical model. Its purely numerical treatment is based on the finite element method framed in the software package ANSYS. Following three modeling stages, the nonlinear structural model is successively implemented firstly enhancing the contact formulation and secondly including dynamic effects in the computation. The attributes of the biological example like elastic support, pre-curvature and conicity are incorporated and their effects are related to the desired sensor function. Beside the characteristic of the sensor system, elaborated through parameter studies, special emphasis is placed on the determination of the working range and its limiting borderlines as well as the uncovering of problematic aspects of the concept. The complex picture of the static behavior of the sensor system is complemented by a first dynamic calculation in close proximity to an experiment, which is conducted in parallel. The juxtaposition of the outcomes are interpreted and a proposal for a measurement strategy is outlined.
