Article Synopsis
  • Researchers have developed a new load-bearing structure that uses negative stiffness to allow for dynamic stiffness adjustments, addressing limitations of traditional systems.
  • The system is designed with simple hardware and can change stiffness quickly (in under 10 ms) using low power, making it efficient for various applications.
  • This innovation can improve technologies like humanoid robotic limbs and adaptive vibration isolators by providing better performance in stiffness control without being heavily dependent on the load.
