Influence of Internal Oscillations on Force Sensing in Coil Springs
RA-L 2017
Coil springs are a common element in compliant actuators. For closed-loop control, the force of the coil spring has to be measured. Typically, deflection sensors indirectly measure this force. Implicitly, this assumes that the coil spring is a pure stiffness, without any mass. In reality, internal o
