Response Surface Methodology for Kinematic Design of Soft Pneumatic Joints: An Application to a Bio-Inspired Scorpion-Tail-Actuator

Machines
In soft robotics, the most used actuators are soft pneumatic actuators because of their simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and safety. However, pneumatic actuation is also disadvantageous because of the strong non-linearities associated with using a ...
