Stiffness modelling of 7DOF KUKA linear axis manipulator using VJM to improve the overall accuracy by calculating the deflection due to the applied load.

Abstract: In this paper, shape functions are proposed for the spectral finite-element method aiming to finding a nodal spectral stiffness matrix. The proposed shape functions obtain a nearly diagonal ...

A program that follows the finite element method with 1-D elements. This is program was created as a semester project for the class Matrix Structural Analysis - 1D finite elements of the NTUA's School ...

Abstract: In this paper a new type of variable stiffness magnetic spring is proposed. The magnetic spring is composed of radially magnetized outer rotor magnets coupled with axially magnetized inner ...
