DescriptionPDFSummaryLET joints use the bending of individual torsion bars to gain bending and translational motion from previously solid sheets of material. This makes it so we can gain large deflections from materials that do not generally bend, such as wood or acrylic.Technical InformationThe root concepts of this design were published in Mechanism and Machine Theory in November of 2009.Lamina Emergent Torsional (LET) Joint - ScienceDirectTo learn more about compliant mechanisms in general, see the BYU Compliant Mechanisms Research (CMR) website or these books: Compliant Mechanisms, Handbook of Compliant Mechanisms.Learn MoreThis design was developed by the Compliant Me
