Visiting Scholars from Delft work in CMR Lab
Two visiting scholars from the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands recently visited BYU to conduct research on compliant mechanisms with the CMR. Nima Tolou and Pieter Pluimers began their study in September 2011 and returned in January 2012 and March 2012, respectively. Their research involved ground-breaking work in statically balanced compliant mechanisms, including microsystems fabricated using a carbon nanotube fabrication process.

Pierre Larochelle visits the BYU CMR
As part of the Mechanical Engineering Graduate Seminar Lectures, Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the Florida Institute of Technology, Dr. Pierre Larochelle presented his research in the synthesis and analysis of spherical and spatial robotic mechanical systems for motion generated tasks. Visiting BYU campus September 30th, he discussed his recent results and challenges in using computers to engineer robotic mechanical systems. His discussion involved two specific challenges that, if overcome, could transform the design of robotic mechanical systems.

Professor Mary Frecker visits BYU CMR
As part of an ongoing effort to encourage collaboration and cooperation in the field of compliant mechanism research, the Compliant Mechanisms Research (CMR) Lab invited Professor Mary Frecker of Penn State University to visit Brigham Young University. While at BYU on March 31, 2008, Professor Frecker presented information in morphing wing technology for unmanned air vehicles (UAVs). Morphing wings use compliant mechanism technology to change their size and shape. They enable the UAV to adapt during flight to meet changing requirements such as speed and distance capabilities.
