Radaelli, G. (author), Herder, J.L. (author)A new monolithic fully compliant gravity balancer is designed with help of a design approach based on shape optimization. The balancer consists of one single clamped-clamped complex-shaped beam on which a weight is attached. The beam is modeled as a planar isogeometric Bernoulli beam. The goal function of the optimization consists of an...journal article 2016
