Exploiting a Simple Asymmetric Pleating Method to Realize a Textile Based Bending Actuator

RA-L 2023

This work presents the design, modeling and control of an asymmetrically pleated textile actuator (APTA). The presented actuator utilizes a simple inflatable beam which is constrained asymmetrically using a pleat that is fixed only to a single side. Due to the difference in length between the constr

The PREHydrA: A Passive Return, High Force Density, Electro-Hydrostatic Actuator Concept for Wearable Robotics

RA-L 2018

This letter presents the Passive Return Electro-Hydrostatic Actuator (PREHydrA), an actuator for use in wearable robotics. It eliminates conventional hydraulic systems' fluid supply and valves, potentially making it lighter, more efficient, and simpler. It also avoids the configuration-dependent fri
