Topology morphing lattice structures (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Sundararaman, V., O'Donnell, M., Chenchiah, I. V., & Weaver, P. (2021). Topology morphing lattice structures. In Proceedings Series: ASME 2021 Conference on Smart Materials, Adaptive Structures and Intelligent Systems. https://doi.org/10.1115/SMASIS2021-67531

Planar cellular lattice structures subject to axial compression may undergo elastic bending or buckling of the unit cells. If sufficient compression is applied, the columns of adjacent cells make contact. This changes the topology of the lattice by e... Read More about Topology morphing lattice structures.

From shear centre to eigenwrenches (2021)
Journal Article
Stacey, J. P., O’Donnell, M. P., Kim, C. J., & Schenk, M. (2021). From shear centre to eigenwrenches. Thin-Walled Structures, 161, Article 107478. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tws.2021.107478

In the field of mechanism design, the behaviour of compliant shell mechanisms is commonly characterised via the eigenscrew decomposition of their spatial stiffness matrix. Recent developments have included the design of compliant shell mechanisms mad... Read More about From shear centre to eigenwrenches.
