Dynamic cardiomyoplasty using artificial muscle
Journal of Artificial Organs, 2008Dynamic cardiomyoplasty using latissimus dorsi muscle was previously used to compensate for congestive heart failure. Now, however, this method is not acceptable because the long-term result was not as expected owing to fatigue of the skeletal muscle.

ARTIFICIAL MUSCLES AS ROBOTIC ACTUATORS
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1988Abstract An artificial muscle is introduced which responses to chemical stimulation producing an actuator for use in robotic applications. A mathematical model of the physical and chemical processes involved has been developed and this has been incorporated into a simulation of the ‘muscular’ actions which are occuring.

Multidirectional Artificial Muscles from Nylon
Advanced Materials, 2016Multidirectional artificial muscles are made from highly oriented nylon filaments. Thanks to the low thermal conductivity of nylon and its anisotropic thermal expansion, bending occurs when a nylon beam is differentially heated. This heat can be generated via a Joule heating mechanism or high power laser pulses.

Many devices and processes produce low grade waste heat. Some of these include combustion engines, electrical circuits, biological processes and industrial processes. To harvest this heat energy thermoelectric devices, using the Seebeck effect, are commonly used. However, these devices have limitations in efficiency, and usable voltage.
