Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.This article demonstrates that encasing a hyperelastic balloon in an inextensible sleeve greatly increases its burst pressure. This simple mechanical behavior can be used to produce an asymmetric inflation‐deflation sequence for coupled balloons with different thicknesses so they could serve as a soft robot's rear and front anchors when driven from a ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

Force Control of Hydraulic Actuators using Additional Hydraulic Compliance
Strojniški vestnik - Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2018 This paper presents an approach for improving the performance of hydraulic force control systems by adding hydraulic compliance. Typically, force control systems require a flexible coupling system, such as a spring between the actuator and the load, to achieve a non-oscillatory response.
