Design Optimization of Soft Fabric Pneumatic Actuators
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents a systematic optimization framework for elongating and bending fabric‐based soft pneumatic actuators. After a preliminary design‐space reduction, the framework minimizes energy consumption under mechanical performance constraints by integrating validated finite element modeling with statistical surrogate models. Optimal designs were
