撓性機構設計是近年來從事機構研究的新領域。本文提出一無因次參數設計的方法，針對傳統上一般化撓性接頭的外性做改變，經由各種不同參數的組合，設計出不同的接頭外型。並使用有限元素方法，分析不同接頭外型的運動特性，並得出一系列完整的數據，提供設計者在設計上一個參考的依據。

Flexural mechanism design is one of the latest field for mechanism researches in these recent years. In this paper, it will address one method of normalized dimensional parameters.
According to the traditionally change of the appearance of flexural hinge, the different parameters will be designed through to the differences of several combination. On the other hand, we use the Finite Element Method to analyze the kinematics behavior of different hinges.
Finally, we come up with a series of complete data that provide designers a reference for designing.
