Journal ArticleDOI
Soft Robotic Grippers.
TL;DR: A critical overview of soft robotic grippers is presented, covering different material sets, physical principles, and device architectures, and improved materials, processing methods, and sensing play an important role in future research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Artificial Muscles: Mechanisms, Applications, and Challenges.
Seyed M. Mirvakili,Ian W. Hunter +1 more
TL;DR: The structure, actuation mechanism, applications, and limitations of recently developed artificial muscles, including highly oriented semicrystalline polymer fibers; nanocomposite actuators; twisted nanofiber yarns; thermally activated shape-memory alloys; ionic-polymer/metal composites; dielectric-elastomer actuator; and pneumatic actuators are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soft material for soft actuators
TL;DR: A single self-contained soft robust composite material that combines the elastic properties of a polymeric matrix and the extreme volume change accompanying liquid vapour transition is shown that could enable new kinds of electrically driven entirely soft robots.
Journal ArticleDOI
3D Printed Reversible Shape Changing Components with Stimuli Responsive Materials.
Yiqi Mao,Zhen Ding,Chao Yuan,Shigang Ai,Michael Isakov,Jiangtao Wu,Tiejun Wang,Martin L. Dunn,H. Jerry Qi +8 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrates a new reversible shape-changing component design concept enabled by 3D printing two stimuli responsive polymers—shape memory polymers and hydrogels—in prescribed 3D architectures and develops 3D nonlinear finite element models to help understand the interplay of geometric, material, and environmental stimuli parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of constitutive models and modeling techniques for shape memory alloys
TL;DR: A review of constitutive models for shape memory alloys can be found in this paper, with an attempt to track their evolution from their inception to their most recent versions, categorized in terms of the approach they use in describing the behavior of shape memory alloy devices.
