Abstract
En 中文
This paper discusses an innovative approach to experimentally determine the behaviour of rotational pivot behaviour by photogrammetric measurements. The compliant rotational pivot was selected for research as it is a well understood compliant mechanism whose deformations can be calculated analytically or numerically, allowing easy verification of the results. The mechanism was redesigned for monolithic additive manufacturing with the selection of printing directions that have reduced the influence of material anisotropy. Rapid developments in image processing and computer vision have resulted in integration of photogrammetry and digital image correlation into a wide range of applications. The primary contribution of this article is in the custom designed experimental pure bending load testing setup with an additional optical displacement measurement system, which was used to study the behaviour of additively manufactured compliant mechanisms. A high quality, consumer-grade camera was used for image capture, while image processing was performed using ready-made and custom developed MATLAB tools. Also, a redesigned compliant mechanism with sufficient precision for applications in low-cost, single-use compliant precise positioning systems was developed, and it was determined whether the selected experimental method is applicable to the research of monolithic compliant rotational joints. The experimental results obtained using this method have been compared to results obtained using finite element analysis and analytical calculations, and it was shown that the results are in good concordance. Therefore, it was concluded that photogrammetric analysis aided by feature recognition is applicable to the measurement of parasitic shift of compliant mechanisms.
