Feasibility of a Dielectric Elastomer Augmented Aorta
Although heart transplantation is a gold standard for severe heart failure, there is a need for alternative effective therapies. A dielectric‐elastomer aorta is used to augment the physiological role of the aorta in the human circulatory system.

Flow-Ratio Monitoring in a Microchannel by Liquid-Liquid Interface Interferometry
A new method to monitor the relative flow rates of two different liquids in a microchannel is presented. By using a simple out-of-plane interferometer setup, shifts in the position of the interface between the two liquids can be determined.

Review of Electrohydraulic Actuators inspired by the HASEL Actuator
The muscle-like movement and speed of the electrohydraulic actuator have granted it much at-tention in soft robotics. Our aim is to review the advancements in electrohydraulic actuators in-spired by the Hydraulically Amplified Self-healing Electrostatic (HASEL) actuator.

An extended actuator cylinder model: Actuator‐in‐actuator cylinder (AC‐squared) model [PDF]
AbstractIn this paper, the actuator‐in‐actuator cylinder (AC‐squared) model is presented. This model is an extension of the original actuator cylinder model of Madsen and is capable of modelling the effect of a two concentric actuation surfaces in 2D. The induced velocity at every point in the 2D field is affected by the force field acting on the two ...

A Q‐Learning Algorithm to Solve the Two‐Player Zero‐Sum Game Problem for Nonlinear Systems
A Q‐learning algorithm to solve the two‐player zero‐sum game problem for nonlinear systems. ABSTRACT This paper deals with the two‐player zero‐sum game problem, which is a bounded L2$$ {L}_2 $$‐gain robust control problem. Finding an analytical solution to the complex Hamilton‐Jacobi‐Issacs (HJI) equation is a challenging task.
