BYU Compliant mechanisms Research Group (CMR)

The Compliant Mechanisms Research Group at Brigham Young University (CMR) is extending the current boundaries of knowledge for compliant mechanism analysis and design in the macro, micro, and nano regimes.

The research objective of the CMR is to perform quality, original engineering research in compliant mechanisms and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) that is responsive to the needs of industry and society. The CMR has an educational objective of helping BYU students gain technical competence, confidence, and a desire to be an influence for good.

CMR Receives NSF Grant

The National Science Foundation has awarded the CMR a three-year research contract for "Lamina Emergent Mechanisms," or LEMs. LEMs are compliant mechanisms fabricated from planar materials (lamina) but are able to produce motion that emerges out of the fabrication plane.

Best Paper Award

The Best Paper Award for the 1st International Conference on Micro- and Nanosystems was awarded to Tyler Waterfall, Kendall Teichert and Professor Brian Jensen. The conference was part of the 2007 ASME International Design Engineering Technical Conferences.
