Can you help me to understand how the first equation in the paper 'New Criteria for Self-Loosening of Fasteners Under Vibration' by GH Junker, 1969 is derived? I'm not able to understand the mathematical and mechanics formulation as I tried to derive the same equation by myself.
Please refer to...
@IRstuff Thanks for posting the source picture.
"inside halve rigidly connected, and outside halves rigidly connected eliminates the ability to tilt, so only left with z-axis"
I still don't understand what it means, the construction and how it works.
I'm reading 'Precision Mechanics Notes' by David Kittell and on page number 14, the author talks about 'crescent flexure'. From the given description and the drawing, I'm not able to understand the construction and working of the described kinematics flexure. Can you describe the construction...
