This is corresponding to the dynamics for the Integral Force Feedback (IFF) control strategy.
The DC gain from actuator to the force sensor should be equal to (for the 2dof APA):
\[ \frac{k_e k_1}{k_1 k_e + k_a k_1 + k_e k_a} \]
Which is equal to:

The DVF strategy has the well known drawback of degrading the compliance (transfer function from external forces/torques applied to the top platform to the motion of the top platform), especially at low frequency where the control gain is large.
Let's quantify that for the nano-hexapod.
