• Design and Rolling Locomotion of a Magnetically Actuated Soft Capsule Endoscope (2012, methodology): “Among various models explaining the circular flexure hinge, assuming that the ratio between hinge thickness and the radius of circle is almost 1, the Smith model is appropriate for this design [24], [25].”
• Design, Identification, and Control of a Flexure-Based XY Stage for Fast Nanoscale Positioning (2009, background): “, the center of deflection can be estimated to be at the center of the circular flexure [34]–[36].”
