Bundled Super-Coiled Polymer Artificial Muscles: Design, Characterization, and Modeling
RA-L 2018
Super-coiled polymer (SCP) artificial muscles have many attractive properties, such as high energy density, large contractions, and good dynamic range. To fully utilize them for robotic applications, it is necessary to determine how to scale them up effectively. Bundling of SCP actuators, as though
