Design, Analysis and Experimental Evaluation of 3D Printed Variable Stiffness Structures
… AM, testing and simulation of advanced optimized variable-stiffness structures. The first part offers an insight on the mechanical, viscoelastic and failure characteristics of AM continuous fiber composites. This understanding was used in the second part to investigate the feasibility of different …

Modeling, Analysis, and Experiments of Inter Fiber Yarn Compaction Effects in Braided Composite Actuators
… this actuator can also exhibit a large change in stiffness through simple valve control when the working fluid has a high bulk modulus. Several analytical models have been previously developed that capture the geometrical and material nonlinearities, the compliance of the inner liner, and …
