Routing Optimization of Cable‐Driven Octopus‐Inspired Manipulators With Minimal Actuation via Genetic Algorithm and Finite Element Method

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Soft robotic arms are promising for gentle grasping but often rely on bulky actuation systems. This work presents a computational design framework that optimizes tendon number and routing to achieve target grasps with fewer actuators. Validated on an octopus‐inspired underwater arm, the approach enables efficient, underactuated soft manipulators for ...

Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.

GraphNeuralCloth: A Graph‐Neural‐Network‐Based Framework for Non‐Skinning Cloth Simulation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a cloth motion capture system and a point‐cloud‐to‐mesh processing method to support the prediction of real‐world fabric deformation. GraphNeuralCloth, a graph neural‐network (GNN)‐based framework is also proposed to estimate the cloth morphology change in real time.

TacEva: A Performance Evaluation Framework for Vision‐Based Tactile Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work introduces TacEva, a unified framework for evaluating vision‐based tactile sensors. It standardizes intrinsic, performance, and robustness metrics through shared experimental procedures and links them to task‐level requirements in robotic manipulation.
