... and hysteresis effect is proposed to reflect the characteristic from input voltage to output pose. The motion of the spherical compliant joint is regarded as a spatial six degrees-of-freedom mechanism. This method considers the motion errors in multiple nonfunctional directions of the compliant joints...

... includes a hysteresis damping term to account for the energy dissipation during impact. The methodology is applied for the analysis of a slider-crank mechanism having a clearance in the piston pin. The simulations are carried out with and without lubricant and the results are compared. It is shown...
