Research Abstract

The applicability of discretized methodology based on the segments connected by coil spring has been investigated for the modeling of flexible structures. New formulation for the design of the flexible structure was presented in problem of inplane deflection of a flexible rod. The deflected shape of flexible rod is estimated by Lagrange multiplier method, where the functional is constituted by strain energy with the constraints on boundary conditions. The formulation of sensitivity analysis, which is indispensable for design methodology, was derived in line with the employed Lagrange multiplier method. Owing to the proposed sensitivity analysis, the governing equation of design parameters was derived and solved by means of the Moore-Penrose generalized inverse.
The validity of the proposed formulation was examined in numerical examples. Fundamental examination was carried out for layout problem of flexible rod, where the layout area of rod was constrained inequalities. Successful result was obtained in the layout problem, then following problems were solved by using proposed algorithm :
1) Trajectory control of flexible manipulator
2) Excessive load release mechanics by utilizing bucking of flexible rod
3) Folding load control of deployable structure
